Tuesday Breakthroughs

My sweet baby girl started the New Year off with a bang -
fever, antibiotics, lethargy and vomity pjs...

Ear Infection #3

Poor Baby. This one really kicked her baby caboose.
We've had 5 miserable days of almost constant 103.5 fever, lots of sleep deprivation and daily power struggles over medicine which resulted in her repeatedly throwing it up on both of us. Aagh!! Fun, fun. Only 15 more doses to go...

So my first breakthrough is that Bayli's fever is finally gone! Hooray! And for once, I don't even smell like vomit (although the day's still young...) This is the sickest my littlest one's ever been. :(

It's been rough.

Now that she's feeling better, she did two big girl things today:

This morning, she picked up the Tivo remote and said "Barney".

So cute. (Of course, she got to watch Barney after that.)

Then, when we were getting ready to leave this afternoon - I totally didn't expect her to do this, but I pointed to her shoes by the door and said "Bring Mommy your shoes and I'll put them on so we can go". So she walked over to the door, picked up her shoe and brought it to me!!
She's so big!

I'm so in love with her cutest baby Uggs...


Bringing me her shoe - that's my big girl!!

It stinks when they are sick. I hate fevers, well when they are older I kind of like them, it keeps them sleeping- hee hee- She is sooo big, don't you think the farther along in the birth order they get the faster they do things? I hate that little baby Joely is such a big girl already- ok enough about me, this is your blog - LOL
