Allie


I had a post in my head about my sweet happy girl who rarely cried and was very good at self-entertaining. She liked to get into stuff and was pretty much always giving me a HUGE open mouth smile. And she loves her thumb. I should have written it on Wednesday. Instead, you get the following post.

Poor Alie- sick again. She was a little fussy the first few days of the week. I thought maybe teeth could be bothering her or something but didn't really think much about it. Til yesterday. She woke up from her morning nap really early. She was crying. She continued to cry. For about 2 hours. And then with the help of my Puj baby sling and some Primary songs, I was able to get her to fall asleep. She woke up 3 hours later with a fever. For the rest of the afternoon, I held her and she snuggled and slept on me. Then I tried to feed her dinner, and everything she had eaten all day came up. It was great. I had my neighbor who is a doctor check her out real quick. Along with a stomach bug, she has an ear infection. He prescribed us some penicillin and told me to pick up some Gatorade. After she had both of those last night she seemed a million times better. She slept great. And this morning she seemed pretty happy. I tried some food. That was a bad idea. Now we are sticking to the Gatorade diet.
But she is still really happy. And she is still giving me lots of open mouth smiles. Still sucking her thumb. And she is starting to climb on everything again.

Of course I will include you. Your girls are so cute. I heard you moved back to Phoenix. I just talked to my husband and he may get transferred to Phoenix, we have to let them know if we are willing to by Tues. So I may be contacting you soon.
