one sick bean

Poor Squirt is sick. She has never been so sick. She has been tossing her cookies (wait... she's been eating cookies?) and running a pretty high fever over the last several days. She's been in and out of her pediatrician's office as we've been trying to find some relief for her. She has been so sad and snuggly (read: clingy) - she hasn't let me put her down since last week and daddy (poor daddy) just won't do. She's cutting her two top teeth now, too, which isn't helping. We were starting to get really concerned when we couldn't get her fever down and she wouldn't keep anything in her tummy - medicine, breastmilk, cookies... (Seriously, though, she doesn't eat cookies.) The antiemetic the doc gave her last night has helped, so she's able to drink some and keep her medicine down. Hopefully, this will help give her the strength to kick this bug somewhere really sensitive... I've never seen her so miserable and it's heartbreaking. She's usually such a tough little cookie (again with the cookies!); it's uncharacteristic for her to be so inconsolable. Poor bean.

 She even makes fevers look good.
