July?

Holy crap! It's July! I can hardly believe it. But it's just like every summer, it goes by so quickly!
Brandon's been working a lot again this summer. Don't get me wrong... it is a good thing! But it is hard also. Not only do I miss him, but Haley does. Randomly she will just say "Daddy? Daddy? Daddy?" And I have to say "No honey, he's at work." Sometimes we will go and see him after I pick her up from daycare if we haven't seen him in a few days. But when he is out of town, we can't do that. She'll understand some day.

On a different note... Picked up Haley on Friday July 2nd at the normal 5:30 time from daycare. I had gotten an email earlier in the day stating that Haley wasn't herself that day. She didn't eat much for breakfast, lunch or snack, didn't play much, just stood around or even laid on the ground. Totally unlike my happy energetic Haley. I got a call at about 4:55 saying "I know this doesn't do you any good really because it is 5 minutes until you get off of work, but Haley has a slight fever." Made me nervous, but we went to the cabin as planned with my parents and sister (Brandon was out of town for work until Saturday night, got to the cabin Sunday around noon). Fever still hadn't gone away the next day and she still wasn't eating much of anything. So, I decided to take her in to Urgent Care. She had a high fever 103 over night, and I knew something was wrong. She alllllways eats! So we went and found out she had a really BAD bladder infection. They gave us some antibiotics at the hospital (up in the sticks, thats what they do because the pharmacies aren't open on the weekends!) and sent us on our way. That didn't seem to work. Her fever spiked that night 104.0. Then again the next night 104.9. The antibiotics were definitely not working. Well we decided that on Monday, and brought her into our clinic at home on Tuesday morning when they gave her a new antibiotic I ended up staying home part of the day on Tuesday (brandon actually was home for the other part), and all day Wednesday and Thursday. My mom was nice enough to take the day off and watch her on Friday. By friday she didn't have a fever anymore and was acting pretty normal. She went back to daycare yesterday and was SOOOO EXCITED! I have an ultra sound scheduled (as requested by the doc) for Thursday evening, so they can make sure there wasn't any damage, or there isn't something wrong with her 'plumbing' .

I will try and start doing this a little more often... sorry!
