Sick, Sleepy Little Monkey

February 20, 2003 – 4:13 pm

Liam is sick. It seems like the poor little guy has been sick his whole life. This time he has a fever and he just is not a happy camper. He went to the doctor yesterday and was prescribed Albuterol and anti-biotics again.

When I got home from work last night he was asleep. Jen said he had been for about 4 hours. He woke around 7 and cried. I tried to give him some bottle; he cried. I put him in his bouncy saucer; he cried. I put him in his swing; he cried. I held him; he cried. I sang to him (usually puts him right out); he cried. I changed his diaper; he cried. I put him in his crib; he went to sleep in about 5 minutes. This was around 7:30 or so. He slept until 4:30, woke up, had some bottle, and went back to sleep until 6:30. That’s one tired little guy.

I feel so sorry for him. Every time I call Jen at home I can hear him either crying or whimpering in the background. Even when he’s not crying, he just looks so sad and miserable it breaks my heart.

They had some kind of cute baby contest on the Regis and Kelly show the other day – probably Monday – that I wish I had known about earlier. I guarantee you the boy could at least have been a finalist. He is a whole lot cuter than any of the babies they had on there. That’s all I have to say about that.

  2. We were home from school when the baby competition was on Regis and Kelly-and I agree-I think Liam could have been a finalist as well. Some of those babies just weren’t the cutest things I had ever seen. I should have been on there when I was a baby! Just kidding ;)
    Hope Liam feels better soon!

  3. I hope he feels better, too. Jen is going to be gone Friday evening and all day Saturday so I’m going to be all alone with a crying, sick, unhappy little boy. Pray for me.
