RSV



In case you've been wondering why I haven't been posting much lately, it's because Camden is sick. When we got home from Vegas I discovered he had a cough & runny nose. The next day it was worse so I took him to the doctor and sure enough, he has RSV. The doctor said it was mild & not serious, but would last from 7-21 days. Yes, that's 1 to 3 weeks! Well, we are going on day 10. Camden is getting better, it's just really slow going. Guess what my baby wants to do when he's sick? Sit on my lap. No where else will do, not even for a minute. So we've been watching a lot of Sesame Street, Word World, & animated movies for the last week & a half. Computer time has been out because Camden screams and fusses if I even sit down in my office chair. Here's a few pictures to tide you over:

Camden has become addicted to Ritz crackers! He carries them around everywhere. They're one of the few things he would eat for almost a week.

Today we both got dressed in street clothes (instead of pj's). This is a play phone I got at the dollar spot in Target and Camden loves it. They had another style, too, and I'm going back to get it.

He looks so serious because he's watching Sesame Street.

Here's hoping the runny nose dries up soon, the appetite continues to improve, the yucko diapers come to a complete stop!

Awww. So sorry to hear that - for both of you. What a bummer. I noticed in today's pics that he's started to look more and more like a big boy. He's absolutely precious.....even when he's sick. Sending good thoughts your way.

Poor little man!! LB had RSV when she was 13 months old and it landed us in the hospital for three days. Not fun! Hope he's up and at 'em soon!

btw, don't you love the $1 section at Target!!
