Yes, Unfortunately my cute little Payton is sick again. It started on Sunday with a mild fever, so we thought she was getting teeth in. Then on Monday it went up to 104. On Tuesday we took her into the doctors office. I said wasn't I just here about a month ago...and yes a month to the day we were there with strep throat. So they did another strep test and it came back negative. They told me that she has Adenoid virus and that it mimics strep throat. So my poor little Payton has been on and off with fevers of 104. I actually got to see her throat this morning and her tonsils are so swollen and covered with white. It is really icky and I feel so bad for her. But she is a trooper! She does really well with drinking even when she is sick. The food part doesn't really happen, so at that point we just try to get in her whatever she will eat. :-) She did eat quite a bit today so I am keeping my fingers crossed that we are done. I have to get her better before next week. I can't have a sick little girl coming to the hospital to meet her new baby brother. We are double dosing our vitamins for the next few weeks :-)

That totally stinks. For a few years my kids were sick ALL through the winter and I hated it. Then last year I finally decided to get the flu shots for them, which I was very hesitant because I thought it wouldn't make a difference. But I was wrong, they didn't get sick AT ALL last winter. And this year they haven't been sick yet. I'm totally crossing my fingers :)
I really hope she gets better before the baby comes. Plus it's just sad when kids are sick!
