When is he not sick?

I feel that Jack is sick almost every month. Well, not so but it feels that every month he has a new sniffle or runny nose. I fear that he has the cold gene that my dad has - when the tiniest bit of weather changes


So Jack has a runny nose and little fever. Good news is that he has no ear infection. He hasn't had one yet ( knock on wood) as I hear those things can be a bit scary.


The stinker part is that know Jack is old enough to know that if he doesn't want something , he will push you away. So when all the little snots are coming down ( little being said lightly) I try to wipe his nose and he hates it. He starts to grunt very loudly and turns red all over. While clenching his fists! He's almost 9 months. He shouldn't be showing such emotions like that should he? And of course, I say the typical Mom phrase of " Jack. Jack! Stay still! " While I try to wipe his nose, all the snots smear all over his face. Now I have more to clean up.
