Sick Baby Mia

Well, we've had a sick little baby since Saturday. As you recall, she was running a little fever last week at big girl school. Well, Saturday it hit her pretty hard. I took her shopping with Emily and Chas and she just wasn't herself. We got home and I took her temp and it was close to 101. All she wanted to do was sleep. She didn't have much of an appetite and she had a really loose, hacking cough. She was so pitiful. She slept all night Saturday night and didn't even wake up during the bad thunderstorms we had. She even let us sleep to 8:15. Woo Hoo!!! She was still very lethargic all day Sunday. She just wanted to sleep and be held. I happily obliged! Mama came over Sunday night so she could spend the night and keep her Monday. I got off work early and we took her to the doctor. Dr. Davis gave her something to break up the cold in her chest and help her to get rid of the cough. I didn't want her getting worse since we're supposed to go to the beach for upcoming holiday weekend! She seems to have perked up and is smiling and talking to me now. I missed my spunky little girl, but she is so sweet and needy when she is sick. I enjoyed cuddling her and trying to make it all better, but it's good to be back to normal.
So, this morning she really got us! Ryan and I were getting dressed and Mia was sitting on our bed watching her Baby Mozart. I heard her grunting while I was putting my make-up on, but payed it no attention. After I finished I went over to give her the cough medicine and OH BOY - she had a blow out on my sheets!!! It was all over her. In the midst of cleaning her up, I unknowingly got a fleck of poo on my face. It was discovered as I was pulling my hair back for work. Nothing like some dried poo on your face to get the day started....
