Sick and the city :(

What a beautiful day we had today in London. After the months of doom and gloom and miserable weather we've finally started to get snippets of spring setting in. Today was a whopping 20 degrees! Okay, not exactly a scorcher but for March?, little blessings eh!

Unfortunately Ettien has ANOTHER cold! I swear, he's had a cold (what seems like) every week since he started nursery and that was in Jan!!! We usually get away with him having a 'chronic' runny nose but yesterday evening I noticed his cheeks were flushed and he was being rather irritable so I suspected he was coming down with something. What is it about kids getting sick at nursery?? I was warned by the nursery nurses when Ettien started that it was likely that he'd keep catching colds. They called it the 'nursery curse' but come on, what is it?. I wonder sometimes whether it's one sickly child infecting all the rest or whether they just keep infecting eachother. I know it will help him to build up his immune system but, Poor Boy!

Anyway, because the weather was so nice today we thought we'd chance it and take the boy for a brief session in the park. Of course, he was totally not up to it and I felt bad watching his poor little eyes and nose running so we only stayed out for 20 mins.

Here's our day,

A rough night :(
...but a better morning :)

Poor baby!
Tower Bridge.
'please take me home'

 He's nicely tucked up in bed now. Hopefully he'll be a little better in the morning, I'm anticipating a bad night though. Fingers crossed. x
