Sick Baby, Sick Daddy

So, it is 2:30 something in the morning and half the Derryberry clan is sick and awake.

Well, not the same halves actually. Lucy has had a pogo-ing fever for about a week and a half now. We thought it might just be teething at first (her top two are starting to come in, which is objectively awesome), but she’s also developed a cough and has a runny nose and eyes. I took her into the Dr.’s office on Monday and they said she didn’t seem to have anything other than a garden variety bug, which is good, but it hasn’t made her any happier. I’m going to stay home with her tomorrow and let her get some rest and love.

Of course, it’s good that I’m staying home because it is 2:40 something in the morning and I can’t sleep because, being a family, we share and Lucy was sweet enough to give me some congestion and a sore throat. The good news is that I don’t think I’m teething.

So, it’s me and the cat hanging out in the dark listening for signs of baby fuss from above and whiling away the hours writing emails and blog posts.
