Poor Hunter!

I feel so bad for Hunter! He woke up several times on Saturday night, as warm as ever! His fever continued into Sunday staying between
100° and 102.° This morning, he stayed in bed until 9:30, and wasn't too warm when he woke up, so we made the trip down to Oma's house to take care of some things. Hunter was pretty grumpy on the way home, so we got home and made some lunch -- Hunter loves food! Well, he ate one bite and wanted down. When I picked him up, I noticed he was scorching hot -- really burning up. We sat in front of the air conditioner for a few minutes before I figured I better take his temp! Poor kiddo was 103.3°. I decided at that point that a doctor's visit was in order, so after a quick nap, we met Grandma at the doctors. His temp had gone down to 100.7° by the time we got there, and they couldn't find anything wrong with him. I was told just to keep an eye on him.

Hunter came home exhausted and took a nap on the couch while Daddy played video games and Mommy cooked dinner. After a quick dinner of blueberries, we were back to the couch where we took his temp again...it was back up to 103.2°.

I feel so bad for the poor little guy, and there's not much I can do for him other than watch him and hold him. He just wants to cuddle and sleep. He's in bed now for the time being...we are so thankful to Grantie, Grandma, and Papa for supplying the air conditioner for his bedroom - otherwise, it would have been way to hot to put him in there!!!

Send well wishes Hunter's way -- he could sure use them!
