Weekend...

Mike and I went to dinner Thursday night to celebrate my birthday! My mom and dad watched the kids for us while we were out. Dinner was fantastic! It was the first sushi I'd had since before being pregnant! :) After dinner we did a little window shopping- and then decided to head home.

The kids had done well for Grandma and Grandpa- however Majkin didn't eat and was starting to get fussy. She was also pretty warm. We took her temp and found that she was extrememly warm- 100.6, which for a little baby is too high. We called the Dr. and were told we needed to bring her to Urgent Care to check her out. We left Carson in good hands with his grandma and grandpa and Mike and I brought Majkin in.

We were checked in after 11 pm. She was diagnosed with a uti and a kidney infection- which was cause for admission to the hospital. :( Bummer. We were settled into a room by 2:30 a.m. and Majkin was able to recieve some antibiotics and a little tylenol to help with the fever. The fever spiked through the night (104.9) which really scared me! The Dr. reassured us that the fever would fluctuate over the course of 24 hours- and that was to be expected with this infection. The medicine should start to kick in after the first 24 hours. It did- and by this am little miss was fever free! Yay!

Today has been a much better day. Majkin's color has improved and she is much more comfortable. Grandma and Grandpa Samson brought Carson into visit yesterday and again today. It was great to have him here. It is so hard not be be able to be home with him- but Majkin needs us here- and Carson is in great hands with his grandparents. Grandma Kris and Grandpa Palmer came to visit Majkin today also. I'm sure that helped her perk up! :)

We hope to be able to go home tomorrow! It's no fun to have a sick baby!! We're so glad she is starting to feel better now. We appreciate your prayers!! We'll keep you updated as best we can! What a weekend!
