my sweet smiley girl



My smiley girl is getting so big!! She is SO happy and we are enjoying every minute of her because we know all too well how quickly she will grow up. We did have a rough week though. Last Sunday she was really fussy during church and it only got worse throughout the day. Around 4 pm I noticed she felt warm. I was really shocked to see that she had 101.4 temp!! She was only 11 weeks old!! I called the dr. and he assured me it would be ok to bring her in Monday morning (instead of going to the ER which I did NOT want to do) because she was eating well and not showing any other symptoms of anything. I took her first thing Monday, and after a long day of blood work and urine tests, we found she had a Urinary Tract infection!! I LOVE our pediatrition, and he was concerned for her. He put her on a really strong antibiotic (Septra) and we go back on the 21st to have another urinalysis and ultrasound of her kidneys to check for Kidney Reflux. I am a little worried, but I trust that everything will be fine. Please pray that my sweet girl does NOT have to go through lots of painful tests. I know she won't remember any of this, but Mommy will!!
We leave next Saturday to take the kids (the "big" ones) to Hot Springs AR to go to Magic Springs. They are really excited, and so are we, but my parents are staying with Chloe and it's gonna kill me to leave her!!!
