Happy 1st Birthday Sunshine!


Happy First Birthday L! It is a bit belated, but this last week was unusual. For a special birthday treat L woke up at midnight with 103.7 fever - her skin was red from heat! Luckily she was alert enough to smile at her Papa and play on the floor. Naturally we went first thing in the morning to the doctor's office, just to realize that she had now 104 fever. She needed a strep throat test, a catheter for a urine sample, blood drawn for blood work, and an anitbiotics shot. Two hours later our princess was so worn out that she didn't even have enough energy left to cry. Poor thing! We returned on Friday again to the doctor's office to get another shot and a prescription for more medicine. We basically spent a lot of time cuddling at home after that. Unfortunately we had to postpone her birthday party - she wasn't up to it and since she didn't let go of me for long, I wasn't either. She is better now, although we have to go to the hospital for further tests. Let's hope for the best!

S took these pictures! That was the first time little one got to eat cake - she definately enjoyed it, but at first wasn't very sure what to do with it!

Like her Mama, she loves to use her feet for all kinds of tasks!

Look at the damage she did to that cake with her feet! Afterwards she got a bath in the kitchen sink.
