How Quickly Things Can Change...


Last night Maci went from completely healthy to a stuffy nose, bad cough, and fever. The doctor told us if her temperature goes above 100.4 it is "an emergency." This morning it was 100.8. I took her to the doctor, not extremely worried because I figured she just has a virus. The doctor acted very concerned. He put a catheter in her to collect a urine sample. He then sent us to the hospital for blood work. He said if the results were abnormal, she would be admitted. Luckily, everything came back fine. We are waiting for some 2 and 3 day cultures to return, but she should be okay. I feel so blessed to have three healthy kids. I have been thinking about all the mothers who take their kids to the doctor like this and are given some aweful and scary diagnosis. I don't know how I could watch my baby suffering every day and not be able to heal them.....

Avila Beach

My mom and I took the kids to Avila Beach for the day today. It was cold, but lots of fun. The seagulls were stalking us like crazy! Oh, and I tried to teach Skylar what bueys (spelling?) were. She got home and told Paul, "Daddy me see boobies!" Here's some pics.
