At the Zoo Today

"This is a fairy dressed up as a tiger"

At the Emergency Room

Edy had a very fun time at the Emergency room. I'm not joking, it wouldn't surprise me if she wanted to go back. With 106 fever and some vomiting, we decided to take her her in. By the time we got there, her fever as down to 101, and she was in good spirits.

So her ER visit consisted of watching TV in the lobby, having the doctor prescribe a Popsicle (to make sure no more vomiting), and watching more TV in the exam room, and then when they found out it was her birthday, she got her choice of Beanie Babies. Rough time.

Edy's Reduced Birthday Celebration

Since Edy had a fever, we did a small celebration at home and postponed her big party until June. Mom and Dad got her a bike that she is very excited to look at and is very nervous to ride. She got an ice cream cake as just Mom and Dad sang Happy Birthday.

Edy is Done being Sick

Edy's fever that sent her to the ER at 2:30 in the morning on her Birthday and caused the cancellation of her Aquacenter birthday party, broke last night. She hasn't had any medication since 7:30 last night and is feeling great.

She is totally in her element at Matthews Beach. She is so happy playing in the sand she is singing spontaneous songs while making sand soup.

Mother's Day celebrations have been postponed to next weekend due to both kids being sick, but so far it has managed to be a pretty good day.

Happiness.

Guess who is mobile?!

In a reminder that life moves on, Edison started crawling forward the week after Grandpa Stan passed away. Now two weeks later he is on the move! He is following the sound of voices in the house and of course is extremely interested in anything his older sister is doing.
