First Sick Visit to the Doctor

All is fun at a playdate...

Until someone gets sick.
Emmy came down with a pretty high fever yesterday. She had the rosiest little cheeks you've ever seen...looked like little red apples were in them. I called her doctor, and it is protocol that they see any child under 1 with a high fever. Luckily, nurse Marina was here to go with us. She looked pitiful in the office, but E is fine and tested negative for flu and strep.

After she was poked and prodded, she cried (note the wet spots on my shoulder) herself to sleep in my arms. This is a rare occasion because she NEVER cuddles this much. I loved the moment but definitely want her to get better. Thanks Aunt Rina for helping at the doctor's office and getting her to bed.

Looks like B & E had a little too much fun together this week. :) Today is a rainy Friday - a great day for a sick day at home...watching a few Baby Einstein's, drinking bottles and having ice cold popsickles that Nan brought over yesterday.
