must have monday

as the little dude has been battling this ear infection, he has also been battling a fever as well. all day this past friday, saturday and sunday he had a fever...poor dude! awhile back we had purchased a thermometer with the three settings (oral, rectal and armpit). i only had to use the thermometer once or twice before just to check and see if the dude had a fever, so putting it under his armpit wasn't too bad. buuuuuuuuuut, having to take his temperature more often, the under the armpit was NOT working. especially if the dude was sleeping and i had to mess with his onesie to get a reading.

so behold...my must have monday


OMG, this little thing makes taking a temperature SO MUCH EASIER! it was so easy that i would take the dude's temperature every 2 hours or so, just because i could and it wouldn't bother him or wake him up if he was sleeping! it even came with batteries, which they must have been thinking of mom's when they did that one. what frantic mom who's infant is running a fever is going to run in and get a thermometer and then remember to get batteries for it?! not this one! :)

i hope i don't have to use it again in the future. but i love that i'll have this on hand when i do!
