We're sick
Addison got it first. I got it yesterday. She's had a cough since Monday, but no other symptoms. Still her happy and cheerful little self. But this cough has been different than the cold she had about a month ago so we've been keeping a close eye on her. Last night she felt a little warm and had a little bit of a rash. She still slept through the night, but was really restless. This morning at 6.15 she woke up irritable and very warm. Her temp was 100.4 and she only wanted to be held. My happy little girl was not happy. It broke my heart to see her like that. Since I couldn't sleep last night and wasn't feeling well either we both decided to stay home. I took her into the doc and she has an upper respitory infection (also known as a cold). The tylenol we had given her already dropped her temp. Basically, it's viral, so we keep giving her tylenol as needed and wait for it to pass. Addison and I spent most of the day in bed. I don't think any mother wants their child to be sick, but it sure makes you feel special when all they want to do is cuddle and be held. It's definitley a special 'mommy moment'. She's in bed right now, sleeping like an angel.
