Ho-hum Saturday

Today, just like the rest of the week has been a lazy daisy day. I didn't feel like getting out of bed this morning and Conrad slept in with me until 10 am! I got up showered and put some new pajamas on and went downstairs to sit on the couch and watch TV. I have pretty much sat in front of this thing all day. I did get up and make some breakfast and chocolate chip cookies, it's going to be a fat day too. Drew went to the office to work because Conrad will terrorize him all day if he is home and he has to get lots of work finished. Yay! I get to be terrorized all day today just like everyday.
Conrad has been sick all week since last Saturday night, he has had Roseola. Last Saturday night I put him down for bed and noticed he felt a little warm but I didn't think to much of it. When he woke on Sunday morning he was burning up I could barely hold him he was so hot, 103.7! His fever lingered between 103.7 and 102 for the next few days. I took him to the doctors on Monday morning and had to see a new doctor because his regular pediatrician was on vacation. Th s doctor told me he couldn't find anything wrong with him and since the fever was his only symptom that it was just a virus and should be gone by Wednesday. Well the fever was down to the low 101s on Wednesday and on Thursday morning the fever was gone. Thank goodness, I was so worried. Then I noticed he had a rash all over his lower abdomen when I changed his that morning. I went online and looked up Roseola like a friend of mine had suggested it might have been and sure enough thats what it was. So Today his rash is gone and he has his appetite back. He is still rather clingy and sleepy but thats okay it allows me to catch up on sleep and just take the day easy and cuddle with my little man. This was his first sickness he has ever had, so it was pretty nerve wracking for me and I hope this is the last one for a long, long time.
Any who, this week was lazy and uneventful. I caught up on a lot of missed sleep but I am still feeling tired and melancholy. I haven't done any cleaning or tidying up so the house if a filthy pig sty.
