sick em

my poor girly was acting a little cranky yesterday and i attributed it to this 2 naps to 1 nap transition she's trying to pull... until she went to bed early and then woke up an hour later unconsolable with a temperature of about 102!! poor baby! she was just so sad and sick... it was so sad. except for one part - SHE CUDDLED ME!!! she never cuddles. i feel really bad saying it was wonderful (because she was only cuddly because she was sick), but she's feeling a little bit better now so i guess it's okay! here's how it went...
poor sick squirrely girl

mommy - sad for her girl but loves being cuddled

video - after having some baby tylenol, a blessing from daddy and ben (thanks again ben!) and cuddling with mom for a little bit. you'd never even know she had a temperature over 100!

then she crashed again for the night and was pretty much up and down all night, wouldn't sleep unless she was on top of me and was a flaming ball of heat all night! she's sleeping a lot and not eating as much as usual today, but i think she's going to be fine!

and just for fun... captain hook's biggest fear - the dread pirate emery!


and this is the funny girl the other morning. she didn't want mommy or daddy to bug her yet. she wanted blankey, froggy and to sit in the corner of her crib. so independent. :) does anyone else love that face as much as i do? argh!!!!!



okay i'm done now! :)

Whenever Madeline gets sick I get sooo much cuddle time! Which I love, but my heart breaks because she is sick!
Emery is so cute! I can't believe how big she has gotten!

it's hard to have sick babies. mateah has been sick all week. emery looks adorable in her independent corner of her crib. i agree that the cuddling is so nice inspite of the sad circumstances.

What a cutie! I'm sorry you had to deal with high temps, those are always scary! Lili has had a bunch of those and we've actually learned that for her, Baby Motrin works about 10 times better than Baby Tylenol for lowering high fevers. If Emery happens to get another fever, you might want to give it a try!

PS what do you do during your days? would you and Emery like to have a play day with Lili and I?

Todd ran into Aaron the other day and blogs came up. Yes we do stalk you and here's ours ktdow.blogspot.com Emery is very cute, even when sick.

She's gotten so big! It's crazy how fast they go in the first couple of years! And my experience so far with high fevers is that it's an ear infection. Carson gets those genes from Ryan!

Hope you're feeling better Em! Brit, I don't work anymore. We should get together.
