Snot fair-snot fest-snot funny

It’s a snot hodai over here at #304 Koukyou 62 this week. It’s been all you can booger since Sunday night starting with the littlest Japanagan. He woke up crying 2 hours after we put him to bed on Sunday. He was congested and a wee bit too warm. I rocked him to sleep but he was up again an hour later. We brought him to bed with us and propped him up on a pillow but despite the Baby Tylenol he wouldn’t close his eyes again. So Sean and I took turns staying up with the babelet all night. The next day I put a pillow under one end of his mattress so he could get some relief from his congestion and that worked wonders. A hot bath, some eucalyptus and camphor in the aromatherapy burner and he had a two solid naps. He had varying degrees of a fever Monday night and all day Tuesday but he overcame that nicely as well. Then Tuesday night Sean started to feel sick and Wednesday morning I was towing the line too. Yippee! This morning Keenan seemed to be less congested but now he appears to have a bit of a cough. He’s still very genki but I’ll take him to the doctor tomorrow if things don’t change for the better by the morning. The babe cries must run.
