First sickness (almost)

After all of our other panic, Amanda and I have been waiting for the day Nathaniel would first get sick. We figured (and heard) going to day care would result in him catching some nasty bug or another.

It still hasn't happened.
Nathaniel hasn't been sick, but I had (have?) something. We're wondering whether he carried it home from day care but, because of some immune-boosting shots back in the day, didn't catch it himself. It's like we have some kind of superbaby when it comes to illness (I hope!).

So, Nathaniel's doing fine while I'm working on a temperature over 101 yesterday-- which is pretty dang high considering my normal temperature is kinda low (about 97 degrees). That's the highest fever I recall having since I was a child. Add the sore throat and achy joints, and things were not fun.

And they weren't fun for Amanda either, who had to take care of Nathaniel and me (I hope the taking care of me wasn't quite as stressful), and now is exhausted before heading back into work.

I hope Nathaniel and Amanda don't get what I have.
