GIRL!!!
We are excited to be welcoming another girl into the family. Let's just hope she's just a little more mellow than our little Beetle (who cut her hair last week :( ). I keep telling Peyton (who of course wanted a boy) that she'll probably be a tomboy like mom and not like all the girly stuff like Bailey. Hope I'm right for, P's sake!
I am starting to think that Bailey might just be sick for the rest of her life! We spent 3 hours in the Dr's office and and Davis Hospital on Sunday-waiting, seeing the Dr, waiting some more and then finally having a Viral Respiratory Panel done on Bailey, her regular respiratory symptoms had been joined by fevers so we decided we should take her in. The results of the respiratory test showed that she has Adenovirus, again (this is the first time they have done the actual test, the other 3 times they have told us she had it they were just guessing based on her symptoms). We have spent the last 2 nights lying awake due to a fussy, restless baby (I say baby but she is really almost 2!). Last night she did a little better and slept from about 1:30- 6ish when she woke up screaming, then threw up. After throwing up I said "are you okay?" and she said "I spit out". During the day she is in pretty good spirits singing and playing as usual but during the night she does really bad tossing and turning and it seems like she can hardly breathe. Her tonsils are almost touching each other and her temps have ranged from regular to 105.3 deg. I really hate Adenovirus I think it's one of the worse viruses to deal with because basically they have high temps for almost a week (or more) and there is nothing you can do to make them feel better other than Tylenol and Motrin. It's a good thing I am on Spring Break this week so Dan doesn't have to miss work and I don't have to miss school or go exhausted. According to the CDC there are 49 types of Adenovirus, only 45 more to go and we've beat them all!
