You Never Know With Kiddos

We went to eat at Pizza Hut one night last week, and Avery Claire insisted she take a huge diaper bag in with her. We looked over while we were eating and she had pulled out a huge cordless phone and started calling people. We just laughed and kept on eating.

This doesn't happen near as often as I'd like. She's always too busy to sit still and certainly has too much to say to be quiet and fall asleep with her mom. So I love and soak in the rare occasion that I can hold her and watch her sleep. 

We woke up this morning and Avery Claire wouldn't eat, wanted to lay on the couch and snuggle instead of playing. This is so not her, so we took her temp. It started out at 100.3 and was up to 102 in a few minutes. She had some congestion, so of course we were worried about pneumonia.  I gave her some Tylenol and left a message for the on-call nurse at our pediatrician's office. They called back and told me to bring her in at 1:00. Of course, she was back to normal by 11:30, but we went to the dr. anyway to doulbe check. Lungs, ears, throat, and urine all checked out, so the dr. ruled it a virus and we went on our way. She was perfectly fine after that. 

This afternoon, Grandma is headed our way to stay and go to help me at the book fair!
