Poor Jacob

This bottle has pretty much been and I.V for Jake the past few days!

After a quick trip to the store to get some medicine the poor thing had had enough!

I have finally had that dreaded first experience with a sick baby! Well I should say I'm in the midst of it, Jacob still has a terrible cold (at least that's what I think it is.) He caught my cough and nasty congestion. He has almost totally lost his little voice, its so sad when he cries because you almost can't hear him and you can tell he is SO miserable. The first night we realized he wasn't feeling well he had just woken up from a very short nap and had a nasty buggery nose and we could hear the congestion in his chest. So we stripped him down and I stripped down myself and held him in the warm tub with me. Even though it was mostly sad, we had a tender moment. Jacob is not one to sit still for very long so when he laid his head on my chest and let me hold him like a newborn almost the entire time it almost made me cry. It made me feel like he was saying "take care of me Mom, I don't feel good." Lucky for us, my brother in law is Jake's pediatrician and was able to guide us through this tough experience and give us the good advice we needed. With any luck we will be over this bump in the road sooner than later.
