Sick and Sickey

Ah....it's Friday of Memorial Day weekend- we have been counting down the days....cue phone call from daycare saying Caelin has a 102.5 temp and she's got the boot for the day.  So after picking her up and bring her home, she defies all sick call policies and asks to ride her bike.  Well, at this point the fever was down and we couldn't force her to lie down.  So outside we went and for 45 minutes she rode her new bike all over the front lawn and driveway.  Having only used it inside up until today, it was pretty impressive to see her going down the hill and gliding along!  Later that night- combination of high temps outside and her having a high temp made for a sluggish Friday evening.  The temp came and went all weekend and when Monday morning came and it was gone we were hoping it was the end of it.  And it was....for Caelin.  Tuesday rolled around and I get a call on my way home saying "The Dr. says we need to take Finley to the ER".  Her high temp qualified for the trip to the ER- which would end up being a long night of painful tests all of which Finley did her best to ensure the Dr. earned their pay that night.  Not 1, not 2 but 3 doctors later they were able to draw blood.  The first nurse in the room got yakked all over and well the murse who was trying so hard to pretend what to do with an infant just had no clue.  Just before midnight Finley was discharged and sent home....must be a virus.  Super job Milford ER- did you hear us tell you when we arrived our 2 year old had a  virus just a day ago?  Pretty sure either of us could diagnosed that:)
