What?! You can't see the picture of my daughter shaking her bootie thanks to this fantastic new game we got?
Yeah, that's because I didn't take it yet.
Sorry. Drew got his shots on Tuesday and has had a fever and cranky-baby-mommy-hold-me-all-the-time since Wednesday morning.
I'm still wearing the same clothes I wore on Tuesday. I haven't showered since Tuesday. I'm starting to get a little worried. It's not a huge fever, but he's never had a reaction before. And did I mention he's cranky. And tired. And won't let me put him down.
All 22 lbs of him!
So... If you have a kid who gets a fever while teething, how long did it last? If you have a kid who gets a fever after vaccinations, how long did it last?
I'm tired of taking his temperature and feeling his head. And I want to PUT HIM DOWN!
And, if you'd be so kind, post pics of your OWN kid dancing (or video too) [scroll down the link for directions on how to participate -- it's easy, trust me!]. You could win some free Stride Rite Shoes courtesy of this very cool contest (supports charity too, people!). We're giving away like 12 pairs or something ridiculous. So, go now.
And take a shower for me, will you?
Oh... and I'll be on the radio tonight. So long as I can put my kid down. Definitely check it out or call in (646) 915-8634. I'm giving away some free *ahem* toys. Special guest: Racy Red and this cool thing.


If he's teething and has just had his shots he could be feverish for four or five days. But give him some baby tylenol and it should help a lot. It will make him feel better and you can take a shower. Boy that guy ahead of me was scary! I almost forgot what I was going to say.

Zachary got his shots on Wednesday. I gave him baby tylenol an hour before the dr's appointment. His fever didn't poke it's ugly head up until about 9:30 that night (from a 3:00 appt) and then baby tylenol kicked its ass again after that and he's been fine since. My other kids' fevers seemed to last a day or two after shots, so I guess it really depends on the kid. Just make sure you keep up the tylenol or motrin. I cannot believe he's 22 lbs! Zachary is 1 month younger and he's 16 lbs! LOL Is your husband like 6'7"? Good luck with tonight's show -I've emailed my story LOL
