Under The Weather But Loved Up

I should've known something was up when Chica went down to bed last night without her usual hour or two of crib antics. And sure enough, poor nugget woke up this morning with a fever.

She never ever EVER naps twice a day, but she zonked out in my arms mid morning.

When she woke, we had some lunch to fill her belly and some drink to keep her hydrated, but we needed something to help with the chills. So we took a special midday bath:

(I bought her these fun bath sponges for the wall the other day and she luvs 'em :)

Here she is practicing her vowels as we sang the Buttercup song. "Make some roooom, and watch us bloooom." She's really good at the "bloom" part, hehe.

Poor girl was worn out after the bath, so she slept again.

Talked to her doc and since it's just a fever and some congestion for now, she advised against bringing her in since there are loads of flu patients coming in and out of their office and we definitely don't want to come into contact with any of that!

In the meantime, I'll just continue dosing her with extra love and cuddles until she's back to her bright-eyed self.
