Muscle Men

We are still in the middle of a crazy heat wave, complete with heat advisory warnings every day. What better way to stay 'cool' than to wear hip muscle shirts! On top of the heat and being stuck inside, Matty came down with a 2-day virus on Sunday. He didn't show any symptoms, but felt hot. When I took his temp, it was 103, so instead of going to Touch a Truck (our original plan), I ran him down the street to the after hours ped clinic. His temp there was 105! Yikes. I about fell on the floor with worry. The doc assured me not to worry, that this was just his body's way of fighting off a bug. He was negative for strep and for ear infections, so we started him on child ibuprofen. We have also had house painters here all week, roofers pounding on the house next door...it has been a true circus. To top it all off, our blender broke, and then the kitchen refrigerator decided to call it quits too. We bought a new one last night, but it won't be delivered until next Tue. Thank goodness we have an extra fridge out in the garage. Other than that, we are very thankful for our A/C and for Nick Junior!
