Evan and I spent all morning at the doctor's office. After staring at this giant bear for approximately 3 minutes without moving, he turned to me and said, "Rarr". So I "rarred" back, and said, "Yeah, that's what the bear says." (I have no idea where he learned that)
He stared the bear down for another couple of minutes or so, quietly whispering a "rarr" every now and then to the bear. Then he suddenly squealed with his hands in the air and a huge grin on his face. He took off to attack the bear...
Or just cuddle with him. :) I like that he wanted to snuggle with the teddy bear, even though he "rarr"s. He stayed like this for a REALLY long time. For a half a second, I had the urge to run to K-Mart across the street and find him the biggest teddy bear in the store, because this is the first smile I have seen from him in awhile. Doc confirmed the eye infections that I was suspicious of, to go along with his horrible cough and congested nose. We've got antibiotics starting this afternoon, and hopefully they will keep away the ear infection Doc told us to watch out for coming. (Sigh) Not only is it no fun for a (normally) happy go-lucky boy to be quarantined, it's a killer for mom, too. Especially when said little boy is awfully ornery and fights napping, which he is usually more than happy to do. Not to mention it's about 70 degrees outside. (Double sigh) Such is life. I'm going to go find me a giant teddy bear to snuggle.

Oh no =( I hope he feels better soon. It really is torture on the mom. So I hope you're okay too! Give him lots of hugs from me=)
Those pictures are so cute!
Poor little guy. It's no fun to have sick kids. I'm also jealous of your warm weather. Jan and Feb are tough months.
Love this boy! The kid needs a big teddy bear! You go get him one and tell his daddy that he NEEDS it. And I hope he gets feeling better, sick kids are no fun for anyone.
I hope he starts feeling better. Even though it sounds like he is miserable, that picture of him with the bear is adorable. And are you complaining about 70 degrees? I sure hope not!
