In the middle of dinner we got a call from Mark and Michelle who were babysitting Abby. They said she had a fever, which was total news to us! They said she wouldn't eat her food and was fussy so they checked her temp. and it was 100.2. She was totally normal the whole day, happy and wiggly, so I didn't think anything was wrong. Abby's never been sick or had a fever before, except for when she got her first set of shots, so I was worried about her through the rest of dinner. We took her to an urgent care place today cause her fever peaked to 102, and guess what? She has STREP! Generally babies don't get strep, but ours did. Woo hoo. So I gave her the medicine today (1 tsp is a LOT!) and I guess I gave it to her too fast cause she threw it up everywhere, plus probably everything she had eaten that day. Never a dull moment. Gratefully she still seems like her entergetic normal self, which makes us believe that she's not in a lot of pain.
Along with dinner, Mom had a suprise for all of us. My grandpa who just passed away was an aspiring artist when he was younger, but none of us had ever seen his artwork. So Mom copied one of his oil paintings and had it framed for each of us. Wasn't that thoughtful? The title of it is "Master, the Tempest is Raging."

very nice painting. and poor abby! I am so glad something like that hasnt happened to evan...everyone knows how over protective I am and I would have just freaked. He is such a baby now b/c everytime he falls, he looks to see if im there and if I am he comes crying over to me so that I will pick him up and cuddle him. AAAHHH!
What a talented Grandpa you had. And a wonderful gift to look at and remember him each time. I hate it when babies are sick:( Giving medicine sucks especially when they throw it up! And I agree 1 tsp is A LOT!!!!!
That's so neat that you guys each got one. What a doll mom! and poor little abby :(
