Rain Check.

If I had anything planned with you this week, consider it cancelled. This mama is run down! Last night Joe and I slept in shifts as we cared for Matthew through his first fever. Joe swung him in his car seat for about an hour until he fell asleep around 1 am allowing me to sleep for a couple hours until it was my turn to handle the screaming around 4 am to back to sleep in the middle of the bed. I was coming off a previous night of insomnia where I didn't fall sleep until the wee hours of the morning. Joe was coming off four weekends of an introvert's greatest fear - endless socializing. For his part, Matthew is now napping and still has a low grade fever, but is more comfortable. Today and tomorrow, I'll be washing all linens, boiling the pacis, and disinfecting all chew toys and play mats... and hopefully napping.
