Halloween


Poor Audrey!

Halloween was not the most exciting thing for her. Actually the entire week has not been the best for her. It all started on Sunday night. She was being a grump and we just thought it was teething so patrick had to run to the store and get orajel because we could not find the one we already had (still can't find it by the way). on monday and tuesday the poor little thing had a fever between 100-102 off and on. And then on wednesday (Halloween patrick clocked her fever at 103) We decided that we needed to take her to the doctor. (Yes, We should have done it earlier but since the fever was on and off we figured it was related to teething.) At the doctors office the nurse had a reading of 105. Dr. Wynn gave found that the poor little one had an ear infection and was close to pneumonia. I guess there her chest should make a certain noise when she breaths but he couldn't hear it. He told us to watch her and see if the symptoms continue. If they remained we needed to take her back on Friday(today). Patrick left with a bunch of tylenol and a prescription for her ear.

I am happy to report that the little one is doing great. The fever went away that evening and the little one is happily taking her medication for the ear infection. I think she actually likes the medication. It has a sweet taste to it.



Anyways that is how we spent audreys first halloween. At the doctors with a 105 fever. I just happy that she didn't have pneumonia and that she didn't have to be hospitalized. (yes, that is a thought that went through my mind that day)

We were going to go to Karen for the holiday and knock on a few doors with her cousin cozy. Audrey will just have to wait till sunday to see her cousins when cozy gets blessed.

Hope to hear from everyone soon.

Loves,
Elizabeth, Patrick, and Audrey

I love her costume!! So cute.
I am glad to hear she is feeling better. It is sooo hard to know if it teething or actual sickness.
