Sick Boy with an Appetite

 This is Evan with Croup. All he wanted when he was sick was his blankie and binkie. He still played a lot and smiled all the time. He just couldn't breathe really well and he would get upset if he didn't get to hold his blankie.
 Another obsession of his is holding a spoon. He goes everywhere with it. He even ate Thanksgiving dinner holding it. When he crawls across the kitchen you hear it  "clank" for every time his hand that is holding the spoon hits the floor. He also likes to use it as a pointer.
 These last four pictures were taken in the same 10 minutes. Evan finishes his bottle when he wakes up and then starts complaining. As you can see I had got out a yogurt and I wasn't opening it fast enough. He takes his meals very seriously. Even though you can't see it, he is still holding that yellow spoon. He actually hits me with it several times.
 He still just has those two little bottom teeth.
 He is so mad that he squeezed out a few tears. It was so sad. When I finally got the food in his mouth he does an "angry" chewing sound for several minutes to let me know that I wasn't fast enough. 

I took a short video of Evan drinking his bottle and holding his blankie and spoon. He is very particular with what he wants now.
