Our Valentine's Day

We had a very busy Valentine's Day. Bailey and I had parties at Mother's Day Out. Poor baby went with her rash. By Thursday it looked terrible. She looked bruised and her hands and feet were so swollen. The Dr. told us on Wednesday night that he couldn't diagnose her over the phone and to take her to Vanderbilt. We considered our options and decided to up her dosage of Benadryl and keep a very close eye on her, since we were going to the Dr. on Thursday afternoon. Here are a few pics of what she looked like.






Well it turns out that she was allergic to the amoxicillin that was given to her for her strep/sinuses. We were given steroids to give her for 4 days (tom's the last day!!) and she looks SOO much better. The swelling's all gone and most of the hives are gone.

We still had a small Valentine's celebration. I woke up that morning to this from Daddy and Bailey! I just LOVE getting flowers :o)


Bailey and I made a card for Daddy. I did a smaller version of this card for my kids at MDO. The big blob at the bottom is a heart made of her hands. She didn't like that part. She's a little prissy and doesn't like paint or anything messy, well other than food! on her hands. She did LOVE putting the stickers on. We're going to have to do more craft projects like this at home. She loves to color and play with stickers.
