Our sick little peanut

She is obsessed with stickers, can you tell?


Last Friday night I went over to a friends house after work and JV had Aly at home. He texted me and told me she had a low fever. I figured her 2 year molars were coming in so that was probably it, no big deal. Well all day Saturday her fever kept getting worse and by sat. night it reached 104.3 (I had to take that one in her bootie). I was freaking out a little because I was at home alone with Aly. We (they) had Laura's 40th birthday celebration that night at Melissa's but me and Aly had to stay home. I called over there to see what I should do because her fevers had never gotten that high before and I was pretty freaked out. I gave her another dose of Tylenol and about 30 mins later it had come down a degree so it was working. She was so pitiful though. Her face was so red and she was so mad and didn't want her medicine. I felt so bad.

We decided to let her sleep in our bed for the night so we could keep an eye on her and it went pretty well. We gave her some medicine around 5:00am and then she slept till 9:30!!! I couldn't believe it, she has never slept that late. So it was nice for all of us to get to sleep in together. Most of Sunday she was the same, Lazy and hot. I kept her pretty drugged up between Tylenol and Motrin and that seemed to do the trick. She slept through the night Sunday night in her bed and didn't have a fever all night.

Dad is in Kansas this week so JV took her to the dr. yesterday morning and they said it was just a virus with a bad ear infection on top of that, not really sure what was causing what. So she is on an antibiotic now and seems to be back to her self again. She spent yesterday with her Mimi and Papa, so i'm sure that helped too!!!

I have been working hard on getting her scrapbook caught up. I'm working on Christmas from last year so getting close. Her scrapbooks are really something I'm so proud of. I think she will love going through them when she is older. Being able to look back on her stuff, but our whole family's as well!!

We have a pretty busy October coming up. We are going Camping with the Siblings and kids (minus Aly) on the 8th and then JV and I are going to Savannah on the 20th for Travis' Wedding (my cousin) so we are really excited about that!
