I was exhausted this morning, just could not get out of bed at all. I even took my shower last night in an attempt to save some time. I was finally ready to go, got the girls up and dressed, and they were just miserably tired. Whining, not moving or cooperating.
So, I decided to let them lay around for a little while. I finally got them up, loaded into the car, and got to work an hour late. Amelia felt warm still when I dropped her off, but I figured she was hot from the house/car/outside still. I took her temperature before we left the house and it was up a little, but not in the fever range. Well, before I even arrived at work, the school called and her temperature had gone up. They had pretty low attendance today, so they told me to just take my time getting there, and they'd just have her resting in the infant room. I took care of a few e-mails, and gathered up some work to take with me. Then, I was off to pick her up, and work from home.
Amelia was fast asleep still when I got there. She cuddled up next to me on the couch for a couple hours, sleeping on and off.
She did drink a ton of water, and ate her lunch well, so I think the heat of the last few days just really took it all out of her and got to her. Poor thing. I ended up putting her down for a real nap a little before 1:00, and finally opened the door to her room so she could wake up a little before 6:00! Tired for sure!
Christian took Olivia over to his parents house after work so that Amelia could just have a restful, quiet evening. We ate some dinner, cuddled and played a little bit. She seemed a little better, and more playful, so hopefully that's a good sign!
The girls were right off to bed when Christian and Olivia arrived home. I got my workout in, watched a couple DVR'd shows and was off to bed myself. Tomorrow is Friday, for the second time this week, and I'm very excited about that! Ready for the weekend - the REAL weekend :)
