Sick Baby

Madalyn is sick... poor baby. It started off as a cold last week with a little bit of a runny nose and a little cough, then she seemed to get better. Last week she never acted like she didnt feel well. But last night she came home from her Nana and Papa's house and was fine... then about an hour later she was sitting on my lap and threw up all over the place. So I put her in a bath and changed her, then put her into bed with me to snuggle and she threw up again. We finally got her settled down into her bed and she woke up at 3 am and was sick again... poor baby. Today she seemed like she felt okay all day but this evening she started running a fever again. It was so hard for me to come to work tonight knowing I was leaving her behind when she was sick! I gave her Tylenol before I left and Shawn will give her some motrin when she wakes up if she still has a fever.... but it was so hard to leave her! She looked so tired and just like she felt horrible.... just laying back on our laps and laying her head there. She didnt even try to fight me when I took her temperature... a sure sign that she doesnt feel well! I guess we will see how tonight goes and if Shawn needs to take her to the doctor or not.... if she is still sick tomorrow I think she should go rather than try to make it through the weekend.

Its so weird... I see sick kids all the time... and its way different when it is your own baby!

Poor baby! I hope Madalyn feels better real soon! Sick babies, it's the worst...just so sad. I'll keep her in my prayers.

Cute pictures of her and Shawn!
