Strep day two

Well, she can't be held down by much. She rested as much as she could stand today, but got pretty bored. She wanted to get up and dance and play. We did play board games today, but I tried my best to keep her settled. I wanted her to have a couple days of the medicine before she got too active again. Too much of my mom in me huh.

Maddy and Mom

Not only did Reagan stay home with strep, the school notified us that the pre-K kids had to leave early as well. My mom volunteer to watch Maddy and even nap her for us. Wow. We got there and I had my little pow-wow with Maddy about being good and napping for Mimi.

She did!

She told Mimi after a bit of play time that it was time to go take a nap and proceeded to walk Mimi upstair and crawled into bed. Cute.

Strep wins

Turns out Reagan has strep. She's been complaining a bit about her throat hurting so we kept her from church last night and then school today to take her to the doctor. Jim took her. Apparently she did NOT like the strep test - the swab in the back of the throat. She apparently got so stinkin' mad that she screamed and then tried to leave the room. The nurse let her know that she would be leaving and she could stay with her dad. Next thing, she huddled up in the corner of the room, wedged between the table and chair and just started crying. She was not happy.

Jim took her to the grocery to get her meds and then stuff for her throat. Jello, pudding, popsicles and tapioca. So today she sat around and probably watched more TV than I want to admit.  I had to work and I really wanted to keep her still and not run around. The iPad didn't leave her side for hours. Oh well. At least she is rested and ready for tomorrow.
