Last Thursday Eli and Ellie caught the bug being passed amongst our children. The bug caused a high fever and sores in their throat, which was not strep throat, it lasts 2-3 days. After their naps on Thursday both babies were running fevers, Eli 104.2 and Ellie 102.3, they were miserable. I gave both of them some Advil and waited for the temps to come down. Ellie managed much better than Eli. I could not get his fever to go much below 102 so he sat on the couch and litterally did not move. His eyes would move but he would not. No hand movement or legs just sat there looking really, really sad. At one point I layed him down and Ellie came over and laid next to him. I thought it was so cute that she went to comfort him I got out the camera and started recording. What you will see is the ONLY time he smiled from 4pm until 9pm when he finally fell asleep on my lap. Keep in mind also that just before this video Ellie started holding his hand only to take his finger and then bite it! That is why he has a few tears in his eyes, but she made up for it later.
I hope you enjoy witnessing the twin bond. It is a wonderful thing to watch grow and deepen.
We are very blessed to be raising twins.

I listened without sound but that is just about the sweetest thing - kisses that make him smile. Thank you for my evening smile.
So sweet!! Witnessing that twin bond is such a special thing about being a twin parent.
This is the sweetest thing ever! It hits home especially for me right now since my boy (of my b/g twins) has had a 100-103.2 fever for the last 3 days. (I think our is Roseola). Stopping by after reading your comment on http://mommawords.com
Thanks for the visit! Love the past few posts with Q&A too!

Thanks Janice! My twins love each other so much! I am so glad God choose to have us as parents to these two! Just today they were squished up next to each other watching Dora even though they had the whole loveseat to themselves!
