Last Week

Last week we spent recovering from Roseola. The Thursday before Morgan started acting weird. She was fussy and just wanted to lay all over me. Now, I was totally down with some extra snuggle time with my girl, but slowing down hasn't been her motto these days. She is go go go all the time! That night she had a fever of 101.9. She's never really had fever before so Friday morning we headed into the doctor's office. After testing her for all kinds of things, her illness was ruled a virus. So we went home to rest and drink fluids. Her fever did go down, but she started to get a rash. Mom and I noticed (she was in town for the night) her rash was getting worse all day on Saturday and by that night she was covered! Using my internet doctor skills, I came across a few things this could be. But after calling a real doctor, we were told she had Roseola. The good news of this was that the rash meant the virus was gone and she would feel better soon! The bad news is she looked awful! Poor baby girl was covered head to toe with tiny red dots! They didn't hurt or itch her but they looked bad. By Wednesday she was spot free and back to her old self!
