HAPPY BIRTHDAY WESTON!!!

Weston is asleep right now. He's been running a 102+ fever since about 2 am... about the time my water broke a year ago today trying to bring him into this world. I feel so bad that he has to be sick on his birthday. Definitely not what I had planned. I have 16 cupcakes for daycare and treat bags... and the day off. He won't let me do anything. So... no haircut today, having a hard time working on his birthday cakes, having a hard time even getting food. Poor baby is just burning up. But the doctors say he can wait to be seen until 3. Scary.
Daycare just called, 2 brothers just went home with high grade fevers. Looks like an outbreak. Both were fine this morning, then, BAM! High-grade fever.
It's hard to reflect on this year with a very sick baby. I remember that day... but some of it is blurry. and so scary. But I got the best reward. He was so tiny then... I just couldn't get enough of him. Still can't, though he's into everything now.
He's starting to wake up... better go.
He was 15 minutes old here.
