Under the weather

Maddie girl woke up from her afternoon nap on Monday with a raging 104+ fever and it hasn't budged much since which earned me an extra day off on Tuesday and my parents another child to watch today for she couldn't of course go to school.  She had more than a handful of cool baths yesterday to help along with max doses of every fever relief medication we could give her.  She reminds me so much of Dylan wandering around with the cool rag on her head for Dylan had the "joy" of doing so a few more times during his first year.

Thankfully, by the time we opted to take Madison in to be checked out by her pediatrician she finally was getting a break from the fever.  It came back with a vengeance later this afternoon but at least she had a few hours of cooler temperatures that allowed her to be her silly little self for a while.



Some playtime occurred in the basement tonight.  All three of them were showing off their safety goggles.



And there is a reason that the microwave rice bags tell you to tear at the top to vent.  Boom!  Yup, I exploded one in the microwave today.  Thankfully no harm besides the loss of a little rice.
