Benjamin’s first illness :(

Benjamin had sort of a mild cold for a while, then he started running low fevers so I took him to the doctor and he had a sinus infection, so he is on amoxicillin.  He also had a stomach virus right in the middle for a few days where he couldn’t keep much down.  The [...]
