First sick doctor visit...

We have been very lucky so far with Taryne. Not only is she a great baby, she has never really been sick. Until now. She has only visited the doctor for her well baby check ups. I am not sure how we made it through the cold and flu season without her getting sick, but I will take it.

She has my allergies, so she has had lots of congestion, sneezing and the occasional cough, but the past few days have been different. I was concerned that she had an ear infection, but after a trip to the doctor, it was just a sinus infection. Unfortunately, she will probably have many of these in her life because of those pesky allergies.

He gave her the baby equivalent to a Z-Pack and she is taking some Mucinex and she will be all better soon enough. It is a good thing, because we have a lot of events coming up in the next few weeks.

Tomorrow she has her "Splash Day" at school and the doctor said she can still participate. I am glad, because I would hate for her to miss her first water play day.

Today at the doctor she weighed in at 17 pounds 2 ounces and was 27 1/2 inches long. She's a growing girl!

Well, I better go and take care of my sick self (I have a bad cough from my allergies too) and my sick child.

Until next time...Gig'em!

I'm amazed you made it this long! Hope she gets to feeling better.

School Field Trips

Both kids had field trips at the end of the year on the SAME day. Hayden's class visited a local pizza place, Dion's, and Taryne...
