Gah, the sniffles.
First, Blythe had an ear infection a couple of weeks ago. Then hives as a reaction to the antibiotics. And this week, she came down with some sort of awful combination of a runny nose, scratchy throat, and cough. It began on Sunday afternoon and kept her from attending her cousin's first birthday party. Instead, she hunkered down at home and indulged in one of her favorite treats - Pedialyte popsicles.
She is much improved today, but Monday and Tuesday (day AND night) were challenging. And I know this is only the beginning of the illnesses that will surely pass through the Dunkley home as her exposure to group settings increases.
I'd like to trade in the sniffles for more cold and snow, though....any takers?

Poor Blythe--I'm glad she's feeling a little better. It's a hard stage to be at, the one where she's finally old enough to enjoy activities outside the home, but then you discover the activities are ALL FULL OF OTHER KIDS' GERMS! Travel-packs of wipes and hand sanitizer are your best friends. And avoid the Childrens Museum after 12pm. :)
