Kind of love a sick day...

I got a text about an hour after I got to work that Isabelle had thrown up at daycare and that I needed to come pick her up.  I was a little upset because Iz had never thrown up before (not counting spit up)... luckily Jacob was still in Lawrence so he picked her up, got her some Pedialyte and hung out with her until I could leave work... Isabelle appeared to be fine (thankfully), so we weren't really sure what the deal was with her throwing up.  We all went to lunch before Jacob had to go back to work, which was a special treat because we don't ever get to do that during the week.  As much as I needed to be at work and didn't want Iz to not feel good, I was secretly happy that I got to go home and spend time with her.. it was such a cold runny day and we were all cozy inside, one of my favorite things... I know that might sound strange to be a fav thing, but I love it.

You will have to excuse Izzy girls mismatched outfit, I just wanted to get her in comfys for her nap and we were running behind schedule... and it was a sick day so who cares right?

this face is so great, like, 'excuse me, what are you doing, I'm busy!'

and then, 'seriously mom? dad is bugging me'

whatever, back to work..

i absolutely love this picture.. she couldn't have had a better face (and of course she has a graham in her hand)

this just made me laugh.. like she has plumber's crack.

I had noticed one of Isabelle's toes that she had recently lost the nail on looking really red, swollen and infected right before bed.  I tried running it under warm water to relieve it some because she screamed when I touched it and I thought that would help (and keep us from a doc appt!).. it did a little bit, but it still looked bad in the morning so we found ourselves at the doctor's office first thing.  Iz loved looking at the books and pointing to animals..

Verdict: her toe was infected so we had to get an antibiotic to kill it and the doc said she probably just had a little GI bug and that's why she threw up, nothing to worry about, just keep her drinking Pedialyte until her bathroom clears up (yep, fun stuff!).  Good little tid bit we learned, stay away from milk if your little one is having runny tummy issues and stick to Pedialyte because it has more nutrients to help them stay hydrated than just plain water.  AND, foods to harden things up.. bananas, cheese, crackers.  There is your lesson for the day ;)!
