Poor baby!

And yes, she is still a baby. She's my baby girl;) Instead of going on a movie date on our anniversary, we got to spend two hours at the pediatricians! You got to be jealous of that fun;) Our sweet girl started having fevers the night before. I was keeping it under control with some Motrin but it stayed at 103 a lot. Well, right before we were about to leave, Makenna woke up from her nap so we waited so we could give her some more Motrin and she was on fire!! She also looked so pathetic. It was so sad. We took her temp and it said 104.9!!! And usually the ear ones are less than the rectal temps that are more accurate so that scared me!! I called the docs and asked them what I should do and they told me to come right in. That worried me even more since it's usually pretty hard to get in even when you call first thing in the morning. Of course her fever broke right when we got there and it made it hard to really see that she was sick but I just kept thinking of how she looked just an hour before. He said there was some fluid in her ears but didn't think that would warrant such a high temp. Makenna then got to pee in a cup for the first time but that came back fine so she didn't have a urinary tract infection. He was a little stumped but gave us some antibiotics after an extra test showed that she had enough gunk in her ears. So, hopefully this will get her to feeling better. She feels fine in between fevers but she just crashes when it starts spiking again. She started feeling really yucky again last night! I just wish the doc could have seen that. O-well. Today has just been a lounging day filled with movies and gatorade and hopefully she will feel better soon. And hopefully Jordyn and I won't be next!!

And I just had to add this cute pic of Jordyn changing her baby's diaper;-)

Ah. She looks so pathetic. I hate it when they are sick. I would ten times rather be sick than ever see them sick. I wish we could could make it so. Jordyn is such a cute little mommy. I am with you. I hope it passes you and J. That fever is scary.
