Sick day...

Max is sick...again:( A few weeks ago he had strep throat, but the antibiotic did not kick it. So yesterday when we got to the Dr.'s office he had a 103 fever and had to receive a shot in each leg. Since then he has continued with his fever, laid on the couch watching cartoons, eaten next to nothing, puked because the medicine is upsetting his stomach, and drank several little bottles of gatorade that Gabe dropped off for him. At the moment he is snuggled up on the couch with his Uncle Clay...they are both fast asleep. I wish I could take this all away from him, he is terribly miserable. And it looks like I will be home again tomorrow from work (I always feel so incredibly guilty when I have to take a day off of work, but if I was at work I would feel so terribly guilty about leaving Max. Feels like I can't win sometimes.)
I haven't posted in a few weeks, so here is what we have been up to:

Max and Nick discussing the soccer game they were watching!
One of Max's newest little buddies:)

A big pile of onry boys!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend! We will probably stick around home to try and get better:)!

Oh man, poor Max! :( And poor momma too! It's hard trying to balance work and being a mommy. Big hugs being sent for both of you!

Oh Abby, I so remember those days of feeling guilty both ways. But you are at the right place for sure! You will never say "Oh I wished I would have spent more time at work" Feel better Max!
