Sickness

Madi got sent home from school Wednesday with a fever. I thought it was just teething at first, but we weren't so lucky. Her first two teeth were never really a huge problem, but whatever she is working on right now is awful! She is teething like crazy! We eat popsicle's a lot and seem to go through Tylenol more than ever.
Her temperature kept going up and we could tell she felt awful. She has never really been sick other than just little colds. We went to the doctor on Friday and she had a viral infection. I felt so sorry for her because we couldn't do anything to help her besides giver he Tylenol. She is usually a very easy going baby and will play by herself a lot, but these last 4 days she didn't leave our arms. We have been up for nights and were exhausted. Yesterday we took her to my moms so me and Ben could get out and just be together for a little while. It was really nice!
I couldn't have gotten through this without Ben! He was such a great help and took good care of us. He is a great Daddy!
Madi is back to her normal self and slept through the night last night in her crib again!

Poor Madi! Sick babies are the worst. It makes you feel so bad and tires you out! Glad she is feeling better!

Bless her heart!! It must be so awful watching your little girl feel terrible and not be able to do anything about it. I'm glad she feels better!
