Update on Caroline

[puppetmaker]

She has her first case of strep throat and a nasty cold on top of the strep. We have antibiotics for her and after two doses the fever is much reduced this morning. The cold is just going to have to work itself out of her system. The sad thing is that because of the post nasal drip she is coughing which is irritating her already sore throat.

We are very lucky that our pediatrician has Sunday hours so she could see Caroline rather than having another day of scary fever before seeing the Doctor.

The Super Bowl was a solid game and it could have gone either way. That the Cardinals fought back as hard as they did and take the lead was nothing short of amazing. Favorite commercial was the Alec Baldwin Hulu.com commerical. Caroline loved the 3-D Monsters vs. Aliens preview.

I am so grateful that Caroline is better.

I am glad she is feeling better. Strep is a no biggie around here. LOL Daniel gets strep at least once a year and just a few doses of antibiotics and all better. The first time he got a virus (around age 9) I totally freaked out. I couldn't just give him amoxocillian and make him feel better. He had fever for 3 days and I was a total mess. My SIL was hysterical, her kids get viruses all the time, but Daniel almost never does!
