We need to win the lottery so we can live at the beach and not have to work! Our week in North Carolina was great and it went by too fast. I have spent almost every summer as a child at Atlantic Beach. Ryan and I were married there and we hope to continue the tradition of going there every summer with our kids!
Thursday before we left for vacation Raegan and I got up and ran to TJ Maxx to get her some new bibs and look for a new bikini for me. Score we found both for super cheap! While we were there she just sat in her stroller so quiet and not looking too good. I noticed she was very warm. We checked out and got in the car. She was asleep before we were out of the parking lot. We got home and she just laid on the couch and didn't move or say a word for 2 hours. She was so lethargic and had a temp of 102. I got her in to see her pedi that afternoon. Normally I would wait it out and see if she improved at all but since everyone was coming to our house to stay Friday night before we left, I didn't want to take the chance if she had an ear infection or strep.
The pedi said she had a virus and just to keep her hydrated. She hadn't eaten or drank anything for over 24 hours at that point. So we went to the store and got her popcycles and pedialite. Immediately after having a popcycle she did a complete 180 and was playing outside for a while. By the time bedtime rolled around her temp was back over 102. She slept great and woke up Friday morning perfectly fine.
Everyone got to our house Friday night and we had dinner and played games and hung out. All the kids were crazy and wouldn't go to bed. Raegan went to bed at 8 and slept til about 9 and then woke up screaming. It was so weird every time she put something in her mouth, especially water, she would scream and scream and scream. I could not figure out what was wrong. I was still thinking strep or even maybe a chipped tooth. I finally gave her some tylenol and benedryl and she fell back asleep around 10. The other kids were still wired, going crazy! Ryan and I slept on the floor in Bug's room so his parents could have our room. We were all up by 5am. The limo arrived at 5:45am and off to the airport we went.
