See that sad little face up there? That is the reason why this trip has sucked so much. My poor little bug just can't seem to kick this fever. It's here, it's gone. It's up, it's down. He hasn't seemed to experience any other symptoms, except extreme crankiness, so I am still thinking it is teething related.
We're flying home tomorrow morning (early flight, hooray!) and I cannot wait to get to the house and collapse into my own dirty, unmade bed. Then it's back up and two more weeks of packing, preparing, and then finally moving.
I will be fair, this trip back home wasn't totally terrible. It was good to see family, as always, and for MR to reconnect with all of his relatives/babysitters-to-be. He was showered with early birthday gifts, which included enough clothes from his Nana to ensure a new outfit for every day of Spring. If you think I am kidding then you should check your local Carter's outlet, it's probably short in stock because she raided it. Her Carter's sprees are a thing of legend in our family. 
He also got some fun new toys that included this little Eebee play mat, which is adorable and so much fun to watch MR play with. It can be used flat as a play mat, but it was more fun to build little structures for him to crawl in and out of. Okay, so yes, in reflection this trip was definitely not a total loss. MR is not the only cranky member of our family at present, I just need to remember that it's just a few more weeks. Then no more trips home, no more sleeping on the in-laws couch, just being home.

Glad you had a good trip...enjoy being home. (It's the best place in the world.) Never heard of the Eebee mat...going to check it out. Thanks for the tip. Get some rest! :)
Sorry you're little guy isn't feeling well. I hope his fever comes down soon and that the packing continues to go well. Only two weeks? That's great!
That picture of him with (his Nana?) is so cute. i love the beautiful look he has on his face as he looks at her.
He looks SO sad and blah in the first picture. Poor baby :( I'm sure you've tried them, but I have teething tablets for Morgan and they truly do seem to help. And? They're homeopathic. I guess that's a good thing.
