A rough past 2 weeks

Tyler was sick the other week (March 3 - 9) and was on antibiotics for Bronchitis. It was a very rough week for him. He had a slight cough and his nose was congested. Mommy had to use the bulb syringe to clear out his nose every morning. Tyler doesn't like that one bit and usually fusses. But in the end, it helps him out. (not that he realizes it yet)

After he re cooperated from his illness, Tyler had to go back to the doctor (March 13) for his 6 month check up. He weighed a good 14lbs and 7oz. He is a growing boy! He also had to get his vaccinations. 5 of them. :( Daddy said Tyler was brave and only cried for a minute or 2.

The next day, Tyler had a fever of 101 and had to be picked up from daycare early. This wasn't a surprise as a lot of babies will have a reaction to the vaccinations. We gave him infant Tylenol and monitored his temperature throughout the night. Luckily, the fever was gone by morning. He wasn't back to his normal happy self, but nevertheless ... he wasn't Mr. Crabbypants either.
