ER

Soo, needless to say,we've had a busy weekend. Sara's mom, Mimi Celeste, was here to visit. We had a wonderful time and loved having her here to help out. Sara, Lucy and Mimi made it out to eat lunch together and did a little shopping for Lucy..the first of many shopping trips for sure!

Saturday night, Mimi was holding Lucy while she napped and Sara thought Lucy felt warm, so she decided to check her temperature...when the thermometer registered 100.4, mom and dad flipped a little..called the doctor and we ended up having to take our first trip to the ER. Yep, it was traumatic, mainly for mom, who cried while the nurses took blood and urine samples from little Lucy. Three hours later, following Lucy's first real tears/open mouthed silent screams,and mom's heart being torn out, all of the tests came back normal...and Lucy had no fever. Long story short, she basically suffered from being too bundled up while she slept. First of many lessons learned...we are relieved nothing was wrong with her and would rather be safe than sorry. As we drove home at 2 am, we laughed that it was the latest we'd been out on a Saturday night since we got pregnant! Life sure has changed in such a short time and we wouldn't have it any other way!
