Doctor

Today I took Cooper to the doctor. He has been fighting a cold since about Thanksgiving and three of the kids at daycare are also sick. I was sure it was just a virus and there was nothing they could do, but I had to be sure. I was starting to get worried about him being dehydrated and if I should continue sending him to daycare. So after my 2 hour commute home in horrible traffic because of a snow storm; Cooper and I headed out. Thankfully traffic had cleared up and the roads were much better. When we got to the doctors office we were the only patients there! I guess no one else wanted to brave the weather and the roads. We luckily were able to see Cooper's regular doctor, I swear she is always working. She checked him out and said what I thought she was going to say "it's a virus and continue what you are doing". A $20.00 copay is totally worth my piece of mind that he is going to be ok and we were doing everything we could for our little guy. Also a little fun fact - even with being sick he gained another pound since his two month appointment so he now is 15 pounds and 8 ozs!
