On Tuesday of this week, Tucker woke up with a fever of 102. We thought it might be teething but that is just a bit to high for teething. We took him to see Dr. Ward and they told us that he had hand foot and mouth disease, he was cutting 3 teeth, and he had a slight ear infection. They gave us meds to numb his mouth so he would eat but it did not work. Needless to say, he got dehydrated and that landed us in Children's Hospital on Wednesday. They ended up giving Tucker about 8 oz of fluids through an IV. After he got the fluids he perked up and ate 8 oz of pedialite. We got to go home on Wednesday night and Tucker slept all night. Thursday Tucker was sooo much better. Here are some pics of his first IV and hopefully his last.
This past weekend Brent was off of work because we celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary. We spent most of the day on Saturday outside with the kids. Maddie decided that she wanted to plant "flowlers", so we let her plant her first tree. She wanted to put it right outside her bedroom window so she could watch it grow every day.
