Sean went to bed coughing and woke up coughing. When I gave him his daily goodbye hug I could
feel that he had a fever on top of his cough. Since Ian is staying home already, he is keeping
Sean home with him.
As of 9:30 this morning Sean had decided that it was nap time after breakfast. Sleep will
be good for him. It's always the same with a new school. The first couple of months are filled
with colds and fevers and then he gets used to the new bugs and stops getting sick unless
a new epidemic hits the school and all the kids get sick at once.
Sean the Gardener:
Last night Sean helped me water the garden. I filled up his fish watering can thinking he'd
just water his fairy garden and then wait for me to fill up the two other watering jugs.
Instead, he also watered his pumpkins. I had expected half of them to die off but now all
six of them seem to be thriving. Sean has a green thumb!
Ongoing Sore Right Hip and Leg:
Harriet is still head down and lopsided. The bulk of her weight is against the right side
of my pelvis. My right leg is still switching between numb and sore.
Pushing the Car Seat Back:
This morning I realized I could no longer comfortably drive my car with the seat as close
as I like it. So I've had to put it back two notches to make room for Harriet. With Sean
I didn't have to do this until I was about eight months pregnant but he didn't roll into
the fetal position until cramped space forced him to. With the seat farther back, I feel
like I'm driving a car with bucket seats. Don't worry, I can still easily reach the pedals
and wheel and I can still easily see out over the hood and through the mirrors.
