poor little one

 We thought Lila looked like she is wearing boxing gloves. I thought it was quite appropriate. What a little fighter.
 Getting IV antibiotics.  She didn't even cry. What a sweetie. Getting X rays was a whole different matter.
A much better recovery bed than the ICU. Quinn and Lila gave me this outdoor swing for mothers day. I know this will be Lila and I's new favorite place.

Poor baby Lila had a temp of 105.6 last night so it was off to the ER. We were doing so well for so long that this sickness took me by surprise. Sometimes I pretend that Lila is always going to be alright. It is so hard to come to the realization that she wont. They think she has a kidney infection. Last year a kidney infection landed us in the ICU so I am so happy that she is home and not at Primarys right now. We will just hunker down and cuddle for the next few days. I am so happy I have more days to do so.

It's crazy that I live only a couple houses away from you and could not have the slightest idea as to what's going! This is crazy...I can't believe she had a temp of 105.6 and you had to take her to the ER...x-rays...boxing glove type things? I'm so glad she wasn't at primary's very long. It breaks my heart that Lila might not be alright...but I think she will. And you think you've got a few more years with her so that makes me happy. And it makes me happy that she's a healthier Vici child. I know things will work out for you Kristi. I'm so happy that you have more days to snuggle her too. That swing is perfect for the two of you. Quinn did good this year for Mother's day!
