Eventfull Thanksgiving

Well, this Thanksgiving will be one to remember. Tuesday evening, Mylie started getting sick. We called the doctor and they said to have her seen that night because she was vomiting. So, we went to the ER to find out that she had pneumonia. I felt so bad that I didn't know that she was that sick. Evidently, the cold that she had turned into pneumonia. So, we do a follow up visit the next day with the pediatrician. He gives her an oral antibiotic and we go on in to McMinnville. We have fun cooking and visiting on Wednesday and Thursday. By Thursday night we are all so tired. We get home and Mylie throws up again! We wait and then go to bed. She slept through the night, but that morning, she begins again. I call the doc back and they want to see her again. So, back to the doctors office we go. The good news, she is not dehydrated, but the bad is she has a bug on top of the pneumonia. He gives her a shot of medicine since she is vomiting. We come home and rest and drink pedialite. She kept that down so we are back to milk. She has done well in the past 24 hours. She is sleeping most of the day and at night. She is a little whinny and wants to be held. Which I don't mind at all to do. So, we have been watching movies cuddled up on the couch. Hopefully she is on the down hill slide and is going to start feeling better.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Did you go shopping? I wanted to, but didn't get to because of the sick baby. What wonderful deals did you find?

We missed you yesterday and am glad that Mylie is better. The only good deal I found was the Wallflowers at B&B. I also got 2 wonderful blankets at The Avenue. If you spent 75$ at any store, you could go to thier office and show them your receipt and they gave you a red or black throw with thier "A" logo on it.
