Trip to ER!

To start, I hate this time of year! OK well I love the beautiful colors, the cooler temps, the leave piles the girls love to make! However....I hate cold/flu/strep/fever/whatever you catch season! Yesterday and last night was awful! My poor baby, Annika, woke up at 3 am Monday with vomit and a high fever. She didn't get much sleep, neither did I, and was puking or dry heaving (sorry I know, TMI!) but couldn't stop! After a full day of crazy fever, vomit and not wanting to stay awake, we decided that I needed to take her to the ER. What a way to spend my wedding anniversary! We got to the er and they bumped her straight in, and immediately said she had to have fluids and fast...So they pinned my poor baby down and put her first ever IV in and lets just say I hope that the nurses have their hearing back. She got two rounds of fluids, a small dose of anti nausea meds and then the last IV was a antibiotic! She has strep! While I was getting her into a itty bitty gown, I also noticed that the side of her leg was red and swollen (nothing to do with the strep) so I had the dr look at it. It turns out she has celluitis on her thigh! Poor thing, it was not that Sunday afternoon when she got a shower, so of course I didn't know, and since she barely moved to and staying in jammies all day on Monday, I had no idea and of course felt like a horrible mom! This afternoon I am taking Candace in to get her swabbed and make sure she is healthy! Like they say, this too shall pass???RIGHT????
