4th of july update

we had a really nice 4th of july weekend - we took nicolas to the amusement park in city park and he rode the roller coaster for the first time, which was pretty exciting for us all. mary even snapped a couple pics of us from her seat in the front (notice he's a little concerned, last time we sat down on the roller coaster he made us get up before it could go, so we were really proud of him for being so brave):


nicolas also had a great time on some of the other rides like the beautiful historic carousel, the little cars that go around in a circle, the train, and the very cool, very real fire engine in nearby Storyland:







unfortunately, saturday night he seemed a bit lethargic, and kept asking me to carry him, which is very unusual. we took his temperature and it was nearly 103ยบ. we had friends over for dinner, and one of them was a nurse (with 2 kids), so she helped us stay calm and we just gave him so tylenol and put him to bed.

sunday he woke up and was his normal playful, animated self, but his temperature fluctuated throughout the day - up to 102 at times. other than a few brief lethargic moments, he was singing and dancing and playing around most of the day. we gave him some motrin a couple times today, and he ate well tonight and didn't want to go to sleep until he drew some pictures, cut up some paper, and had me read him several stories. we'll see how he does on Monday.
