Fun little blog for family and friends to hear about our daily lives and what the kids and I do all day long. Also a place for me to complain if needed :)

Poor Addie
So yesterday I got a call from daycare that Addie had gotten a cut on her head. Apparently som kid tried to pick her up and she was too heavy and he dropped her on her head on a Dora dollhouse. So I picked her up, left the boys at daycare and took her to CHD to see f she needed stiches. She was a tropper. She held monkey, let them clean the cut, and then glue it. She got a little upset when the glue started to sting but otherwise she was a rockstar. So we were in and out of the Er in about a hour!
Then on the way home she threw up in my car. And of course the first thing that goes through my mind is that that is a sign of a concussion. So I call the er and they say that once or twice is okay but any more than that and she needs to come back. Well she threw up a total of 6 times in my car by the time I made it back to the ER.
I called Rob and he met me there. She proceeded to throw up again while the doctor was in the room so they ordered a CT scan to check her out. She then threw up as the Ct scan nurse was walking into our room.
Once again she was a rockstar during this. SHe laid there and we were able to have monkey lay on top of her belly and Rob held her chin just to make sure she did not move her head. There is nothing sadder than watching your little baby get a CT scan and praying everything is okay.
Thankfully it came out negative. She was very BLAH the whole time we were in the hospital except for maybe the last 30 mins. They decided to give her a popscicle and see if she could hold it down. They said that they wanted to keep her overnight for observation unless we felt comfortable in bringing her home, which I did.
So after 5 hours in the hospital, my dad and our daycare lady April coming to check on her we were finally able to be discharged. Rob left to go get the boys from daycare and I headed home with Addie to get her in bed. Needless to say she was asleep within minutes and I checked on her thoughout the night and she was okay.
Today she is back to her usual spunky self but home with me so I can keep a eye on her. So we have a few errands to run and I am hoping for a nice long nap today because this mama is TIRED!!!! thanks to everyone for the well wishes!!!
