What A Day

Happy Easter everyone!!! It's been a looonnnggg day here. My little one got up this morning so excited that the Easter Bunny had paid her a visit and she went off in search of eggs around the house. That was the beginning of a rough day. The hunt ended when she stumped her toe so bad on a door jam that we thought she might have broken her big toe. Let me tell you that it takes A LOT of candy to make a boo-boo like that feel better! Having already come within inches of an emergency room visit I don't know why we thought it would be a good idea to take her to a friend's house for another hunt this afternoon. But hey, what could possibly happen in a nice, flat backyard, right? WRONG! My baby found the one, count them, one, hole in the entire yard to fall into and twist her ankle. Lot's more candy and all was better, or so we thought. We come and lay down for a nap, I notice that she feels a little warm, but hey, she's been outside in the sun playing and running around and falling into holes, right? WRONG AGAIN!! She wakes up from her nap and feels even warmer, just for kicks I take her temperature, 101. I give her some Tylenol and that's the LAST thing that actually went into her mouth for a long, long time. Moral of the Story: Candy might be a temporary fix for a boo-boo, but you are going to pay dearly for it in the long run!!!!
