Sneezy

We had a bit of a scare this morning. Caleb woke up cranky rather than his usual chipper self. Mom brought him into our room and laid him down on the jungle gym. Since he was already cranky, she figured this morning would be a good time to get some tummy time. As he likes to do, Caleb did not stay straight on the jungle gym but instead went completely sideways. Because he was crying so much, Mom picked up Caleb and his upper lip was covered in snot. After wiping him clean, Mom took him into the nursery to take his temperature and he sneezed out some more snot. Mom was very distraught at the thouht that Caleb might have a cold. Caleb had a pretty rought morning and was inconsolable. Mom said he calmed down after they took a walk around the school with Caleb in the sling. Although he did sneeze out some more snot later in the day, Caleb does not seem to be sick after which is a good thing for his sake and for our sake since we are travelling tomorrow night. I figure he might have just had some allergic reaction to all the grass and fire smoke from last night.

Once he calmed down, Caleb did spend some time sleeping in his swing during the day. Mom thought this picture was pretty funny because the pillow makes his ears stick out.

By this time tomorrow, we'll be in Tennessee. We're looking forward to Caleb having the opportunity to spend some more time with Granddaddy and Watshername, Uncle S and Auntie M and the rest of Mom's family.
