OMG


On Friday, I took Chelsea to the doctor because she seemed extremely congested. We thought she had kicked her cold but it looked like it was coming back. Her pediatrician was not there, so she saw another doc. He checked her lungs, throat, ears and nose and said that everything looked fine and that babies sometimes just get congested with the weather changes. She also had a rash that broke out on her face and he said it was just some irritation. Over the weekend, she just got worse and worse. Mucous pouring out her nose and the most pitiful coughs I have ever heard. Soooo.. we took her back to the doctor today to see her pediatrician and she diagnosed Chelsea with an infection AND eczema. She was prescribed amoxicillin and hydrocortisone ointment for her face. We gave her a warm bath about an hour ago. It seemed to her help her FINALLY fall asleep. Joshua was up all night with her and took care of her all day today. Props to my baby daddy! It was a rough day. The whole time I've been back to work she's been sick. Luckily, I have vacation time and sick time left that I can take. My poor, poor little baby.

fever

Chelsea has a fever. I had to leave work to pick her up from daycare... luckily she's sleeping at the moment, but I imagine she's feeling pretty crummy right now. She had some vaccinations yesterday, and that in combination with her trying to get over a cold has made for a very fussy unhappy sick baby.


Here's hoping she feels better soon... my poor daughter!!

Great!

Chelsea got to meet her Great Grandparents on the Kantola side today. She also got to meet Joshua's Aunt Beth, Uncle Kevin, and Aunt Barb. Thank you to all of them for coming to visit from Michigan and for the nice gifts... Chelsea has loads of new outfits!

Oh... and Joshua's parents and brother were there too, but she sees them all the time, so whatever... :)

snot

Chelsea is sick. I took her to the pediatrician this morning and confirmed she has a cold. It's at the worst right now and will take about 8 or 9 days for her to get over..... so there's really nothing we can give her, except the occasional infant Tylenol for headache and fever. I feel bad for her, she's super grouchy. Here's a bad, fuzzy picture from my phone...






On another note, I ran out to Walgreens earlier to purchase Kleenex, Toothpaste, random stuff... whatever.... I love that store. They don't have everything, but they have what you need pretty much probably or something close and maybe a cheap little toy you didn't even know you wanted or how about a T-shirt that says MY GRANDMA ROCKS! or something like that. I scored myself some Giant Cheetos tonight.... all I have to say is that I'm pissed nobody thought them up years ago.

day 1


Tomorrow is Chelsea's first day at daycare.... I'm wary and antsy, but I'm sure she'll be fine.


She'd better be.





I love you, daughter.
