I'd definitely take them out! It's windy, but should warm up!

I take DD out even if it's in the 30s, if it's not windy and it's sunny-- feels warmer than 30 then, you know?

I can't wait for the weather to warm up, my poor DD just loves to be outside.

For a cold, I definately would b/c I am a firm believer that cold air helps to dry out the nose.

How high is the fever?

Definitely get them outside for a little bit. I think I'm even going to go to the Bronx Zoo tomorrow for a few hours.
