My poor little woman is sick again. Yesterday morning we were up at 4:50 am with a fever and plain old icky-ness. I didn't realize it right away but she had also thrown up a bit too. Poor thing had to miss school yesterday but I don't really think she realized it, she was in bed miserable, the whole time watching Caillou in between mini-naps.
So yesterday when I got over to Grammy's house we made an appointment to immediately get her into the doctor after finding out her temp was up to 102.6 (EEEKK!) All the way there she kept saying her eyes don't hurt anymore (she must have had a headache) but she was still interested in seeing the doctor. Unfortunately that will be the last time we have a smooth trip to the doctor. "I know, I know child...how dare she try and look in your ears and mouth - that's absurd!" Needless to say we don't know exactly what she's got but we do know that strep throat and a few other virus are circulating so she's been put on Penicillin and Tylenol for the fever.
This morning we got 10 more minutes of sleep than yesterday morning. Today the vomiting started at 5:00 am but was over fast and she settled into the couch for a half hour of the Good Morning Show - the whole time saying "I don't wanna frow up."
Thankfully today she is feeling quite a bit better and the fever has subsided. She will make it to school for picture day and hopefully no new virus try to encroach on her already fragile immune system.
