Well Sam had what we thought mid last week was a minor cold. You know runny nose, a tad cranky etc..By Thursday when she really wasn't eating anything or drinking much I got a tad concerned picked her up from school and ran her into her pediatricians office. We were unable to see our doc so late in the day so we saw the nurse. Well we had her check her ears to make sure no ear infection. Nope everything was clear. So fast forward to us being up all night Thursday with her just crying..And this is a huge panic thing for us since Sam does not cry in pain very often if ever. We got concerned enough to keep her home from school and good thing we called in reinforcements. My parents came over to watch her while I had to go to work. Then Friday evening she was so bad and we were worried about dehydration we took her into the minor ER clinic right down the street from our house (all in our pjs must have been a sight) and she was diagnosed with an ear infection. Really it can form in 24 hours?..apparently soo.. After they gave her a high dose of Motrin and some anti nausea medicine we left (with a prescription for antibiotics) and got home where she proceeded to scarf down a bottle and fell right to sleep..Which was so nice...She crashed all night..yeah..She woke up Saturday feeling much better no more fever and a whole new baby...yeah!! We did skip the Easter Egg Hunt as it was a little chilly and she had just gotten her first dose of antibiotics and did not want to risk anyone else getting sick..We took it easy Saturday and with me (Erin) being sick too we took lots of naps..
Sunday (Easter) we were all feeling much better and ready for the Easter bunny and some family fun..We met at the folks place for a nice brunch at the club house..So busy and so yummy.. Here are a few pics..
Sam in her Easter dress and of course a new bow....I loved how the other headband and bow looked on her so I got a new one to match her dress...Dan had no choice in the matter....She did however hate the dress because she couldn't figure out how to crawl in it so she would fall over and lay down and roll around..Pretty funny...
Another quick family pic with Sam with her sweater on as it was a tad cold out there..
The whole family getting together for a picture in the clubs library..What a good looking bunch of people...
And of course after nap time the girls got to play together...What cuties....
Easter was a lot of fun.....It was Sam's first Easter and even though she was combating an ear infection she was such a little trooper...
