Weekend Update

Friday we made our trip to the house, they were putting in carpet and finishing up the counter tops. It looks so good! I'll have to take more pics soon. Only a couple weeks left and we should be in, but I've been saying that for how many weeks now?

Saturday Steve got up early and headed to Iowa City for the Iowa game (which we won't talk about) so Presley and I had a girls day. She slept in, finally waking up at 10 am! NUTS! We got up, got ready (in her red Mexican dress b/c she refused to wear her Hawkeye shirt and who doesn't get dressed up to go to the mall?) and headed to the mall for some shopping. We didn't buy as much as I had intended, but we had lunch at the mall and did a little play land time.
Then we headed to Super Target for the 'real' shopping! At this point, Presley is more excited about buying things for her baby sister than she is for herself! It's super cute!
We made a dessert to take to my mom's on Sunday for the Packer game, got a Happy Meal for dinner and rented The Lorax for our girls night! Great girls day with my baby! She was very good! The last couple weeks she has been a very good girl, she might actually be 'growing up' a little!

Sunday I worked most of the day and Presley got some quality time with daddy and then we all headed to my parents to watch the Packer game (which we won't talk about). It was good family time and good food and lots of play time for Presley! She was losing her voice all day which we thought was just from screaming and having fun.....until midnight. When she woke not being able to talk, cough or breathe. She was crying, gagging herself as she tried to catch her breath. It was scary for all of us. We took turns sleeping with her b/c we were worried about her breathing, so none of us got very much sleep.
She went to my mom's as normal and about 11 am I got a call that Samantha was being taken to the hospital! After hours at the hospital the end result, she hyperventilated. Sounds like she couldn't breathe, got nauseous and thought she was going to pass out and just wasn't responding normally to her coworkers. Everything turned out to be ok, probably a little exhaustion, dehydration and a drop in blood sugar.
Then at 4 pm my mom called and said that Presley woke up from her nap HOT! Coughing, hacking and crying. Steve went and got her to take her to the walk in clinic. Fever of 104 degrees! Poor thing! They gave her Tylenol right away. I had planned on working late but then decided to leave and meet them at the doctors office. They didn't want her to leave until her temp came down and they did an initial strep test that came back negative. More than likely it is just a virus that needs to run its course. By bedtime you could tell she was already feeling better! I'm ready for this day to be over!
How is it that my kid, who is rarely sick might miss her first FULL day of preschool due to being sick? We'll have to see how she is tomorrow and if she still has a fever, if she does...no preschool on Wednesday! :(
