8 months old

I had to give her the toy to stop her from eating her toes. I had the hardest time gettig her to stretch out for this picture. The next 4 months ought to be fun.



Sorry I have been absent for a while. With Marks classes starting back up two nights a week we have been a busy little family. I have MANY cute pics to come including Landries first pony tail :) But for now this is Landries 8 month picture. She is so big, still toothless, and on the verge or Crawling, scooting, and bear crawling. She is not sure yet how she wants to travel so she is starting to learn to do all three. It is precious.

Well,

I've just been waiting for Landrie to get a fever ever since our hospital stay. Sunday afternoon while we were getting ready for the super bowl, she was a bit fussy, which is not like her at all.

Then about the time for the game to start she got a fever. We gave her Tylenol and tried to pretend it wasn't happening. Then she woke up Sunday night/Monday a.m. with a 101 fever. This of course requires us to go see the doctor Monday. Any fever over 100.4 will require this for her until she is 1 year old.

Doc couldn't find any other reason she could be sick. Throat was clear, ears clear, lungs clear, etc.... While most of the time this makes mommies happy it made me a bit sad as I then knew they were going to have to cath her to make sure she didn't have a UTI. She HATED it and I hated having to help hold her down, it breaks my heart.

However, the good news is she just has a basic virus/cold and is doing great now. It breaks my heart that she had to go through that for a general cold, but better than a hospital stay I guess.
