Water Balloon
misty · Fri, Feb 26, 2016Today felt like it flew by, actually, and I’m not sure why. Chase watched Milo for a while after she woke this morning, and she was ready for a nap pretty much right after he left for work. After that, she was really fussy and a bit feverish most of the morning. Her fever only registered at just above 99, so I decided to hold off on the Tylenol.
After waking from her first (2-hour) nap this morning, Milo’s fever was just over 100, so I bit the bullet and gave some Tylenol. While the medicine syringe was still in her mouth, she had some impressive projectile puke. It was like we both got hit by a milky water balloon; it got everywhere, and there was a slight purple tint to it thanks to the Tylenol. So I refilled the syringe and tried again, this time successfully. Her fever reduced pretty quickly, and Milo was less fussed after her second nap.
This evening, Chase had leftovers and I went out for a burger while he stayed home with Milo. It’s nice to go for a little walk on my own now and then, even if it is only for 15 minutes.
The evening was mostly spent watching Milo, cleaning, and getting ready for our trip tomorrow. Milo went to bed easily, and we’re hoping she is still a good flier. We’ll find out tomorrow.
