My Sick Baby

Tuesday night everything went as planned. Daddy had plans with his friends and AG and I played. After we went thru the whole bedtime routine she got in the bed and went Night Night...

Then it happened... 20 minutes later... she started screaming like she was hurting. I went in her room to check on her and she was very sick. She threw up all over the place... We called Daddy to come home and she got sick 6 more times... She would not drink anything or even eat a popsicle... she could barely hold her little head up so we headed to the emergency room...

She got sick 2 times in the waiting room and they finally took us back. They put in an IV and gave her some fluids and some Zofran to help with the nausea. They took her blood and said she had a stomach virus. Before they gave her the fluids her little lips were so dry and they were starting to turn blue on the edges. She strained so hard and it was so scary. I felt so bad for her and wished it could have been me instead. After she got the fluids and medicine she started feeling much better.

Every time she would get sick she would say "It's okay!"... then when the nurse that gave her the IV was leaving the room she said "Bye Bye I lub u" ... it was so sweet...

Then yesterday she had a low grade fever in the morning and it was gone by the afternoon. I think she is all well today but kept her at home just in case she wasn't completely over it.

So - the last couple of days have been a little crazy and my house is a wreck. In between working and giving AG attention I am trying to get this place straight and get some laundry done... I AM READY FOR THE WEEKEND!!
