Another First

Let's see...what have we been up to? This week Layla has been feeling a little under the weather. She had a high fever and just felt yucky. This was Layla's first sickness so it involved a lot of googling, a call to pediatrics at the hospital where I delivered her, a trip to the doctor's office and around the clock temperature taking (yes, Ryan and I set our alarm for 3AM to check her temperature). Sometimes it is exhausting to be first time parents :-)

You can see below that Ms. Layla had a nurse doggie and kitty that were very good caretakers. It seemed like they had sympathy fevers with how sleepy they were around Layla.

Layla sleeping peacefully and hoping that her mom and dad would not be awaking her to stick a thermometer under her arm.

But the good news is that Layla has rested up and appears to be on the mend from her first sickness. The fever appears to be gone and her spirits, energy and appetite have all picked back up. Below are some pictures from today!

In case you were wondering, Howie is also on the mend from his sympathy sickness :-)

Oh! How I think we already have our hands full with with this situation!!!

Layla says, "Come on Howie, time for your walk!"
