That's right our little princess has sick bombed us all. I knew when she started daycare that she would start bringing home illnesses, but Steve and I hardly EVER get sick and I was fortunate enough to make it through my entire pregnancy and year after with no illnesses. So a week ago when we started getting sick we were a little caught by surprise!
Ava, Steve and I all got sick at the exact same time. When we got to Vegas for Sara's wedding it got worse and worse. The dry air had our throats tore up and I couldn't even talk at the wedding. Everyone was making fun of me and telling me just to text them what I wanted to say. Needless to say we missed out on all of the fun pre-wedding partying and gambling AND the after wedding events. We spent our entire vacation holed up in our room with thera-flu and a humidifier. We never slept more than 5 hours a night. Despite being sick though, Ava was as happy as ever. Nothing is worse than teething and she was over that thank goodness!
Now we are all feeling better, but Steve and I are coughing our eyeballs out. Steve went to the doctor today and got something to help us get through this last part of the cold. Ava is all better now, just a small runny nose still.
I must say that now that her molars have cut through, she's adjusted to daycare AND she's coming off of this cold, I have my sweet sweet happy cuddly baby back! She's sleeping through the night again, going right down for bed on her own, and not fussing 24/7 like she was for a couple of weeks. Now when I drop her off at daycare she goes right to Miss Sue and doesn't make a fuss. She loves Miss Sue, so she just watches me leave like "okay mom I'll see you later" and when Steve picks her up instead of having a meltdown she just smiles, says "dada!" and runs to him with her arms up in the air. They say she is doing great during the day and that they are sure the bad part is over. yay for my sweet doodlebug!!!
