Memorial Day Weekend....and Roseola...

Well...it never fails. You plan a nice long weekend vacation to the beach...and your child gets sick. Ellie started running a fever the night we were supposed to leave for NC...102.7 to be exact. Thought it might be a high teething fever...since she ran that before. Ended up taking her to my sister's pediatrician on Friday since her temp kept creeping up. No infection...and CBC came back normal...so the only logical explanation was roseola. Darn it! Well...sure enough...she had it. Friday afternoon her temp got up to 104.6! Poor baby! At least we were in an oceanfront condo...with 7 pools to keep us happy. She did fairly well....up until our last full day in Myrtle Beach. She was MISERABLE! And to top it all off...those darn top canine teeth started bugging her again. When it rains it pours people! Oh well...what are you gonna do...you try to make the best of it :) She's doing much better...and yesterday the roseola rash appeared...and today...it's all over her little body. Her teeth are still trying to come through...so once they pop out...hopefully (fingers crossed) that should be it for a while. But who knows...you can't plan anything!! :) Thought you all would enjoy a cute picture of her from this weekend!
