06/10/2002 Entry: "Oy"

Hot. Sweltering. In the 90's. Sam doesn't like it, and I certainly don't like it. Eric and I were snapping and sniping at each other all yesterday, and then found that we were both running fevers; when they dropped to normal late in the evening as the temperature cooled, we attributed our foul tempers to heat exhaustion.

Sam gets so freaking sweaty, especially when he nurses or gets tired. He did it all winter long, and summer isn't promising to be any better. Ugh!

Oh, he loves it when I squirt him with his water bottles. Maybe I should start keeping them in the fridge!

When it gets like this, I keep a spray bottle (like you'd use to mist plants) of water in the fridge, and take it out and mist the kidlets from time to time, especially if they're playing or running around. It comes with us in the car (though we do use the A/C) and whenever we're outside. Maybe Sam could appreciate being misted with cool water?
