Wow--again?

Yesterday Riley began looking a bit off; kind of pale and droopy and lacking his normal three-year-old energy. Robbie asked him at one point if he felt ok and he said yes, but he began going downhill as the day went on. By mid afternoon he said he was freezing and when I felt his forehead he felt decidedly warm. I took his temp and it was 101.7--just high enough to make the little guy feel cruddy. 

It's weird that we go almost four years with only one real fever and now, within two months, we end up with two of them! It's not as if I had kept him sequestered either--we've always gotten out and socialized with other kids, but he didn't get sick like he's doing now. I guess this is the difference between him nursing and not nursing during the sick season. (he hasn't nursed in nearly a year, but I guess this is the first time we've been surrounded by sick people) Gotta love a milk that makes the kid impervious to germs.
