Recovering at home

Jim and I took turns staying home from work all last week to take care of Ben. We wanted to keep an eye on him and also keep him out of daycare since he was still super contagious and supposed to stay fairly inactive. It was a little stressful trying to get work done in the little time we were at the office and also try and take care of a cranky little man, but I have to admit that the time at home with Ben was cherished. What a rare treat to spend so many days at home with our little man. He seems to be feeling much better. The week was full of LONG naps, a couple of breathing treatments, play time inside and in the backyard and lots of snuggle time. He had a fever for a couple of days and the usual rash that follows babies, but besides that he is doing well. On our way to a full recovery! :)
