Sadie update

Sadie is feeling much better today.... finally!!!! Above is a picture we took of her today for her birthday invitations. That's not the face of a sick baby, huh? She had a low grade fever at a few points today, but nothing high, and nothing that made her feel bad enough to warrant Tylenol. So we made it a WHOLE day without Tylenol!!! This is good because she's been taking it several times a day since Wednesday. So we were really hoping today we wouldn't have to give any more to her. The antibiotic is causing an upset stomach (another reason to try and lay off the Tylenol). So she still isn't eating much. She had some Goldfish, Cheerios, and a jar of Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal baby food today. That's it! She wasn't interested in anything else. So hopefully that will get better. She has been drinking really well yesterday and today. So we think we're good in that area at least.

We're anxiously awaiting further results tomorrow from the 72 hour culture taken from her urine sample on Thursday night at the ER. We'll try to write an update tomorrow night.

Thank you to everyone who has said a little prayer for us, and especially for Sadie. We have a couple of other friends right now with sick babies too, and we are thinking about you guys as well and praying for you. Parenting is not for the faint of heart. It's so very difficult to watch your baby suffering and to worry BEYOND BELIEF about her state of health. It comes with the job though, and we happily accept the worries in turn for all the treasured moments we get to enjoy with her.
