Noah was fine during lunch today, but afterwards, at Aunt Jenna's, he slowed down and started acting pretty lethargic. We went home and took his temperature - it was 102. We gave him some Tylenol and was hopeful that this was all due to his three new teeth that he's working on breaking through. After he woke up from his nap, he was still warm. Mimi was going to watch him while we went out and celebrated a friend's birthday, but we decided to take him to urgent care instead. Since they were closed, we were off to the hospital. There, he had a temperature of 104. They immediately gave him Motrin, took some blood, put in a catheter, started an IV, and took an x-ray of his chest. I can't even tell you how terrible it was to watch Noah weakly scream through all of these procedures. 
Three hours later, Noah was acting like himself again. His temperature had dropped to 100 and all the tests came back negative. They said it may have been a virus but don't know for sure.
We're just happy our baby boy is better!!
