One bug after another

Haley has been going through a lot lately. This is one reason I have not blogged in a while. Two weeks ago, she had a terrible cold. She finally recovered from that and I thought we would be okay for a while. Then a week ago, she quit wanting solid foods. At first, I thought she was just being picky, but as the week went on, she quit eating the things that I know she likes. Then, she quit wanting her formula. I took her to the doctor thinking that it may be an ear infection or something. He wasn't able to find anything and told us to just keep watching her. We did and after a few more terrible days of not eating, she finally started eating again. The only thing I can figure is that she had a stomach bug. She finally has started eating like she used to. I'm SO relieved!! I was absolutely scared to death when she wouldn't eat. As a nurse, I had the worst case scenario in my head. I was about to drag her back to the doctor when she started doing better, thank goodness. Now that we have gotten past that, she has spiked a fever. It just happened tonight, so I gave her some Tylenol, a bath, and lots of fluids and put her to bed. I'm anticipating a rough night tonight. If she isn't better tomorrow, I'll take her back to the doctor. I sure hope it's not anything serious!

Here are some updates on the things we have been up to since my last post.

We had a visit from my best friend Erin and her dog Bella. This is a video of Haley and Bella playing with Bella's bone. It took her a little while to warm up to Bella at first, but she had a blast with her once she got comfortable.

Haley and Erin.

For Haley's first birthday, we are doing a ladybug theme because she has always loved the book Ten Little Ladybugs. My friend Lee Ann bought her a GIANT ladybug and went ahead and gave it to her. It is as big as she is and she loves it!



We happened to have on matching outfits one night, so I made Scott take pictures of us. Kind of corny, but I thought it was cute anyway.

I finally got her standing and taking a step on video. It's not easy because she doesn't last long.

Poor Haley!! I hope she starts feeling better!! I know it must be so hard to see her sick.

I love the matching outfits. I asked for one for Christmas, but I think Daddy forgot. I love the lady bug theme. I will have to find something like that giant lady bug for Lucy. She loves to jump on the pillows like Haley. Can't wait to see that cute girl again!!

I hope Haley is feeling better. You feel so bad when they are sick and you can't really do much to help them.

I LOVE the lady bug theme! That will be so cute!
