Life’s Little Moments

With 4 days left until Christmas, I thought I would share a little update. Despite the many Christmas posts, I am not really feeling "Christmassy" this year.

Been a crazy week here. Ella wasn't feeling all that great Monday night and then woke up Tuesday with a 104 temp. We began to alternate the Tylenol/Motrin every four hours and were told that if the fever continued on Wednesday to do a Tele-Med visit. Wednesday morning, the fever was still there, so we … Continue reading You Give Me Fever … →
