It always seems to happen just in time for the weekend

Gabriel was sick on Friday. Really, really sick. He came home from daycare with a low fever. By the time we got home it was in the mid-102 range. After some Advil and a short nap he was a little lower for awhile, but obviously not feeling well. And then by evening time he was up to 104.5. That's a crazy high fever! And he was very hot and a little fussy, but really wasn't as bad as you would think with that high of a fever. He fell asleep on my lap which is very uncharacteristic of him (he never cuddles with me).

But then he woke up later in the evening and just hung out on the couch with Gabe and me and ate a piece of pizza like there was nothing wrong with him. Kind of crazy. He had no other symptoms and it turned out that he was just teething. Who knew that they could spike that high of a fever just for some teeth? I was expecting the drooling, but not the fever. And he really did drool a lot. He totally soaked his pajamas.

And of course he had his fishing pole with him. This kid has priorities and fishing definitely seems to top his list. He's not going to let a fever get in the way of this.
