An eventful week indeed!
Wednesday I took Miss Emmalee to the dentist because in her words she "has a hole" in her tooth. I looked at it and it looked like a cavity! Sure enough it was a cavity and needed to be pulled. Thank goodness it was a baby molar! I got to see her adult teeth on the X-ray! That was neat. Come to find out she had an abscess tooth! She never once complained of pain she simply told me that she had a hole in her tooth! So she went on an antibiotic!

Thursday Elizabeth came down with a high fever and was having extreme stomach pains. So I called the doctor and they were able to get her in that morning. She had a viral throat infection which nothing can be done for and she also had a UTI!!! So Elizabeth went on an antibiotic for that!
Friday, I picked up the girls from VBS and Ellisyn felt warm...her temp was 102. We came home and gave her meds and she was fine. The girls had plans to spend the night with Grandma Friday night and since Ellisyn was feeling better I decided to still let them go with medicine for Ellie! I was planning to babysit for Kevin's sister (I always need a baby fix!) but I wanted to get into the pool alone for a bit and just really have a chance to breathe some fresh air and relax. I had my cell phone out there with me because my sister in law was going to text me when she was on her way. The inside phone rang and I didn't jump up because I figured it was Kevin or something and knew that if he needed something he'd call my cell phone. Well sure enough my cell phone rang. So I hurried out of the pool but still have to return the phone call. It was my best friend Lori and her husband had been in a motorcycle accident....(He's doing much better by the way PTL!!)
After a while Friday I got a text saying that Ellisyn had a fever again. I planned to have Kevin pick her up and bring her home on his way. He didn't because after the meds she was doing fine again and she had insisted on staying with Grammy! Kevin and I went to the hospital to make sure our friend was okay!
Saturday I went back to the hospital to sit with Lori and keep her company. On my way home from the hospital I get a call from Kevin saying that Elizabeth has red spots on the palms of her hands! So I rushed to get her to make sure it wasn't a reaction to the antibiotic that she is on. I took her to Kay's house to have her take a look to (she always makes me feel better) we decided to keep an eye on it. (it ended up being nothing. Didn't itch or hurt and progressively got better). Ellisyn got a fever again and I gave her meds and held her for a bit. I figured since I wouldn't be going anywhere else that day that I would hop in the shower quick. I took about 10 minutes or so and came back out to see how she was doing and her eyes were extremely swollen. I thought she was going into anaphylactic shock and immediately took her to the ER. My friend Michelle and another friend Kathy came to save me from the emotional break down I was then having.
