I'm home with little peanut today because on top of her ear infection, she now has a fever. We were all set up for "date night" at the day care where they watch the kids after hours so parents can have a date - this one was for valentine's day. Well, Kris and I had dinner and headed over to a function. Just when we got there, they called and said she woke up with a fever. So I hurried to get her as Kris got the car. She was eating, but she was on fire and her lips were sooo red. When we got home, her temp was 101.4. So, I gave her a bath, motirn, nursed her, and she went right to bed. She woke up at 1 am with a temp of 102.2. So more motrin, more nursing, but this time she wanted to stay up and play. So I was trying to comfort her and read books till about 3 am. Finally, she went down - on my chest. So she slept in our bed until about 6:30. Her fever was down to 100.4 this morning, and it finally broke around 9 am. She's napping now, though she looks to be sweating, so we shall see what it is when she wakes up. Poor little thing!
Kris is working this morning and then we are going to switch after lunch. It is nice that both of our jobs are understanding and allow us to do that.
She just woke up - more later on the house!
