The past four days.....

I can't believe I haven't blogged in 4 days!! I know it's really not that long, but for me it is! Here is what our little family has been up to these past four days.

Thursday I had an MRI done on my brain for some serious headaches I have.....turns out my MRI came back just fine.  Must be genetics thanks to my mom and dad. :)  I am on medication twice a day for them so hopefully that will continue to help!!! 

Friday we took Isabelle to the doctor and turns out she has her very first viral infection.  Boo to germs.  I hate germs!! Tuesday night she had a fever of 101.7 and woke up Wednesday with a normal temperature.  Then Wednesday night she broke out in a rash on her tummy and back.  We called the nurse immediately and they suggested to just keep an on her since she was acting fine and her fever was gone.  But then she started not sleeping well at night and crying, and the rash was not getting any better.  So we took her in Friday and they said it was a viral infection.  I have no clue where she got that since we are beyond careful with her and stay far away from anyone with pretty much even the sniffles!  The good news is she is on the mend and sleeping well at night again and the rash is almost all gone.  I think she is working on her two bottom molars too!

Before her doctor appointment....looks happy to me! :)

Saturday I went up to Ames in the afternoon for my oldest friends baby shower.  Erin is due January 24th with her first baby, a little boy.  My mom went to the shower with me as well and it was great to see Erin, she looks beautiful!  Isabelle stayed home with Kevin as the shower was at 3:00, which is her afternoon nap time.  We had a great time at the shower and of course I was so happy to get home to see Isabelle!!

Back at home before bedtime


Today we had some fun playtime in the morning and ran some errands in the afternoon.  Isabelle took her usual 3 hour afternoon nap and woke up at 6:00 for dinner.  She has been sleeping so much lately! Her morning nap is about an hour and a half and her afternoon nap goes well into the evenings and is usually 3 hours! A couple times last week I had to wake her up at 6:45 so she could eat dinner! She still goes back to sleep by 8:30 for bedtime.  Maybe she is going through a growth spurt!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
