EOTS day 2 & Xander

Day 2 for Elf on the Shelf (EOTS) was fun.  Blitz thinks we need some snow around here for a snowball fight!  We should have some by the end of the week :)


Last night as we were getting ready to go to the gym, I noticed Xander was rather hot.  I took his temp and it was 103.6!  I gave him a dose of tylenol and took his temp every 30 minutes.  It was not going down, only up.  It was up to 104.4.  We laid him down early and he fell asleep quickly, but when I took his temp while he was sleeping and it was 104.4, I gave him another dose, but advil this time.  It's an 8 hour medicine, so I was hoping it would give him a little more comfort while he slept.  We moved him to our room so we could keep touch on his fever.  Around 1, I noticed his was cool so I moved him back to his bed.  At 7, his fever was back at 102.6.  So down, but not gone.  He's been acting normal today.  When he woke up today, I asked him if he was feeling better.  He said, I happy, mommy!  Love this boy!
Look how pitiful he was last night...


Now today, he's "happy".  I still haven't gotten around to decorating for the holidays, but I did bring up the totes today.  Xander came across the stockings and said "I Santa!"  Ha!  I guess Santa has fun "boots?"  Then I told him they go on the wall and he said no, they go on the door.  He then hooked them on the front door handle.


We didn't do an EOTS today.  With being up so much last night, I forgot after I got out of the shower.  I even had it all set up to do.  I just couldn't do it early because it would wash away from the shower steam.  Try again tomorrow.  Hoping Xander gets better because tomorrow he starts back with PDO and he's really excited about seeing Ms. Kelly.  He talks about her all the time!

Have a great day!
