Lower fever, first step

An utterly miserable night was followed by a pretty decent one.  This morning Ben woke up reasonably early (6:05) but in a pretty good mood.  He is running a nominal fever (37.1 C), but other than that - he seems well; played very nicely with me and his brother.  Even offered a toy to Zev.  And then offered one to me.

What is clear is that Benjamin is not a fan of taking meds.  He will (sort of) tolerate taking Tylenol when he is not feeling well, but 5ml of antibiotic twice a day is not a hit.  Same bubble gum flavor and pink look fools Benjamin none at all - he rather hates it.  No negotiating on this one, however.  Down it goes.

In other news: yesterday Zev too his first, single, independent step, from support to support.  As befits a Jewish man of learning, his first step was taken towards a shelf of books.
