Hospital Stay

What a crazy last few days! I picked up Addi from daycare on Wednesday night only to find out that the bug bite that she had on her leg had grown since that morning and she was slightly limping. Within a couple hours of being home, she had a fever, was crying constantly because of the pain and would not eat. We called her doctor and long story short, brought her into the doctor's office as early as we could on Thursday. The doctor took one look at it and said we had to check her into the hospital as she was going to need to have the abscess surgically removed. Friday morning she had the surgery and she is now almost 100% back to her old self. I am hoping tomorrow that we will get a clear bill of health and we can resume life as normal (not that we really know what that is around here). :) I must say, my girl was a complete trooper throughout the whole process. Everyone was commenting on how adorable and sweet she was. She melted one nurse's heart by saying she was a nice lady and another nurse's heart by just being an overall jewell of a patient. She was a complete rockstar (which she likes to call herself now). :) We were so proud of her!!! I sure did miss my amazing little boy while I stayed overnight at the hospital with Addi. He missed me, too. When I finally did see him on Friday, he pressed his face to my face and just left it there for a few minutes. I love that boy to pieces. He is a rockstar, too! :) Oh, and I am so incredibly thankful for my family. My sweet sister, who is expecting her first baby, postponed her baby shower (which I know was a huge letdown) so that my mom could come help us during the whole ordeal. Thank you, Brandy and thank you, Mom for coming!!
