Rough weekend

Marleigh has officially now been sick. We made it almost one year after being released from the hospital, which is amazing. Thursday, when I picked Marleigh up at Jenni's, she was a little snotty nosed. That night she didn't sleep well at all and started running a fever. Poor little thing couldn't breathe when she was laying down, so Daddy and I took turns holding her all night while she slept. Her fever peaked at 102, but was consistently in the 100.50-101.50 for about 36 hours even on tylenol and motrin. Marleigh is such a happy baby, though. Even while she was sick, she wasn't overly fussy. She was just more cuddly than normal. We had to hold her again Friday night and Saturday night in order for her to get any sleep. By Sunday, she was feeling better, although she wasn't quite 100% yet. She went down for a nap Sunday morning at 9:00, and didn't wake up until 10:45 which is very unusual. Our normal naps are 45 minutes. So, our cute Easter dress that we bought will have to be worn a week late. With her not feeling well, I couldn't bring myself to wake her up. We did go out to Grandpa and Grandma Cline's for lunch. Luke hunted eggs while Marleigh watched and took it all in. We had a nice time with them. Sunday evening Aunt Myra came over. We grilled and had a nice Easter dinner.

Marleigh was much better yesterday. So much better, that for the first time EVER, Marleigh slept through the night! I'm so excited I might throw a party! I have been waiting for the day she would sleep all night. I hope it wasn't a fluke!!!
