Strep Throat - Part II: One Day

It's amazing the difference that one day makes.  Yesterday, I picked Kate up from school early because the school had called me and said she was running a fever and was very lethargic and tired.  They said she was literally just lying on the floor instead of playing with her friends and doing the planned activities.  This is extremely unlike Kate.

My poor baby, and back in a pull-up despite being diaper free for weeks...

Even when she's sick she's cute!

And this one just had to get in on the cuddles too.

When I got her home I called the pediatrician and got her in that afternoon.  I thought it was strange that her symptoms appeared so rapidly so I wanted to be sure it wasn't something more serious.  Low and behold, our darling girl picked up strep throat somewhere, and she was placed on antibiotics.

Just one day later though and she was almost back to her normal self!  We spent the day at home together because she was not permitted to be back at school for 24 hours, so we relaxed, watched movies, and played with toys!

bit of work!

The animation in the next several shots kills me!

It is SO Kate!

She's got a little sparkle in her eye!

No doubt asking me if she should or should not do something...

And clearly I told her that wouldn't be a good idea.

But she probably did it anyway...

And then wanted to see herself doing it!

After having strep throat recently, I knew the amount of pain she was feeling and I was amazed at how quickly the antibiotics kicked in.  I am so happy that my baby is feeling better again!
