Keeping the kiddo occupied...

Normally this time of year we would be able to at least take walks outside or go to the park once in a whole. However, the Chicago weather is not cooperating this spring. One day it'll be warm but raining and the next it's freezing and cold. I am running out of ways to keep Evie entertained inside the house! There's only so much we can do. Hopefully the weather decides to turn to spring soon! I'm getting cabin fever myself! Oh well, at least we have Mexico to look forward to at the end of May! Maybe by then the weather will be somewhat better here... We can only hope!

So last week Evie had a bit of a cold (first one ever). There were a couple of nights where she woke up and cried... I'm assuming because it was because she couldn't breathe very well. But putting the humidifier in her room and rubbing Vicks on her chest helped her get past it in a couple of days.

Fast forward to yesterday... I took a quick shower in the morning and then went into Evie's room to get her. When I walked into her room she was heaving... I didn't know what to do so I picked her up and took her to the bathroom. She threw up a little bit of clear fluid and was then fine. She did get pretty upset and cried. She hasn't thrown up since probably 9 months old so it was something new for her.

She ate breakfast and lunch just fine and played as she normally does all day. I put her down for her nap and around 2:30 I heard her stirring around. I went in there only to find that she threw up all over everything in her crib including herself. So I cleaned it up and gave her a bath and then she was fine the rest of the day. She slept fine and today she is happy as usual. So odd! Jody and I think she either ate something bad or she's been sticking her hands down her throat too far!

Ah the joys of being a parent...
