Zoo Day 3

Today was our last day of zoo camp. Griffin is definitely sick and didn't sleep well at all last night. I ended up sleeping next to his bed on the floor (really super comfy) until 1 am. I decided to go ahead and take him because I had paid for it and he wanted to go. It wasn't the best idea, but we got our money's worth. He coughed the entire time we were there and I was totally embarrassed.

The first thing we did today was make a hedgehog out of clay and spaghetti noodles. He loved it.

He wanted to get his picture with it.
He has since pulled out all the noodles and destroyed it.
Then we went outside into the most awful foggy and wet weather to see the llamas and other animals. Things started going downhill here. I shouldn't have taken him this morning and the weather was really awful. He shouldn't have been out in it.
Llamas.
Riding the train- it was FREEZING on the train.
Still on the train. We pretty much left right after we got back inside because he was so miserable.
After we got home I gave him some medicine- which did nothing, and tried to lay him down. He coughed for about an hour and a half before he finally fell asleep. Poor boy. I was hoping to be able to send him to school tomorrow, but no go. Griffy has RSV I'm sure, although I thought actually testing him for it was pointless so I didn't let her. He decided to run a fever (only 100) at the doctor- has pretty bad wheezing and an awful cough/sneeze. So B is going to stay home with him (I know, wow, right?). Here is Mira "reading" a book to him at the doctor's office.

On a good note- Mira did FANTASTIC at swim lessons tonight. She did exactly what was asked of her without argument- she even swam to me UNDER WATER kicking her legs and holding her breath. She has come really far!!! The teacher told me if we take another class that she should definitely be in the next class up. I told him you have to be 4 years 10 months for it and he said, "I'm not above a little lying." Nice! He's the teacher for the class, so perhaps we'll do it. We went to Target to get Griffy some meds after lessons so I let her pick out some new goggles since she'll swim under water now!!!
