It's been a rough day on our little guy and it just got worse.

You may or may not know that there has been a nasty flu going around (at least that's the word in the moms-group circles around the area). We were hoping to ride this round out since we've all sort of had our fill of various stages of colds/sore throats/ etc about two months ago.

So Hayden woke up crying the "different kind of cry" about 11pm. Mom wakes me up (which I was already) and said "Ok somethings wrong". I was sort of thinking that it could be related to "The fall" after effects, and perhaps he was just really sore and needed some more tylenol to help with the pain.

I went in and picked him up and he rested his head on my shoulder for a bit and stopped crying. He then of course looked up to get a kiss, which I did and noticed how... wet his face was.

Hmmm.

You know. It sort of stinks in here.

Oh damn.

So I went and turned on the bathroom light to verify that work needed to be done.

Poor guy.

I have to say that's the first time I've ever had to do that sort of thing, but it's surprisingly easy to do for someone you love. He's back down to sleep, and we're up talking and at this point waiting to put the wash in the dryer.

We did have him get the flu shot, so hopefully that'll help this. We've been heaering of people being sick sick for a full week. Yuck. -- cjm
