Sick baby

Alex has been in daycare for 2 weeks now and although we really like the facility a lot, I'm sad to report that he's picked up a nasty cold/cough already. I'm fairly certain he got it from one of the other kiddos in daycare. It was bound to happen since he's in a different environment and is now being exposed to so many new germs. Kinda comes with the territory. Unfortunately, it'll probably take him a while to build up a little immunity to all that stuff. We'll get there though!

We took him to the doctor on Tuesday after work, and they put him on breathing treatments for the next week or so. Hopefully that will clear everything up. Poor guy looks miserable in the mask, but he's done really well with the treatments. In fact, he was trying to EAT the mask this morning. :) Go figure. He is still his chipper little self and has been just as happy as can be, so he must not be feeling horrible?! Thank goodness for that! Plus he's also been sleeping a little better at night, so I can't complain about that either.

Lenny thought Alex would like some googly eyed stickers on his mask for decoration :)
