P is for Pajamas

I sent Carter to school yesterday even though he wasn't 100% yet. He was much better though even though his nose is still running some and he has a nasty sounding cough. However today is the first day his face doesn't look bad.

Anyway, this week the kids were working on the letter P. So on Thursday they had a pajama party. Carter was so excited to wear pajamas (and slippers!) to school. Here he is with Sarah Kate ...


The teachers served the kids pancakes for their snack. And hot cocoa which Carter told me he did not like and that he had water instead.

Even though Carter is doing better, Rylan is much worse. His cold started a couple of days after Carter's. But unlike Carter, he's had a terrible fever the last couple of days. Rylan was acting out of it all day yesterday and then was burning up before bed. We took his temperature and it was 104 (which is the highest we've ever seen for either kid). This morning he felt much cooler but got warmer and warmer all day. By mid-day his temperature was 103.5. He's been taking ibuprofen all day but it's only helped a little. He took several short naps today and has moments of energy and happiness though he's been just miserable most of the day. I really hope tomorrow is better for him.
