After Christmas Blues

We went home Christmas night, slept and packed to go to Granbury for a weekend away with just Brance, Wren and I. We love the cabin there and wanted to seize the opportunity to get away. It was fun, but Wren was unusually fussy. I thought it was just her being tired from Christmas and all of the new places. The next day, my friend Gina came in to visit, and Wren developed a bad cough. We went to the doctor the next day only to find out Wren had RSV, a respiratory virus. The next week was spend tending to a sick baby. I was so thankful Brance was home from school to help out. Poor Wren would cough so hard she would throw-up. She was still actually pretty active and happy until New Years Eve. She got a pretty high fever and would just lay on Brance. I kind of freaked out and called the doctor at 9:30pm. They just suggested that I alternated Motrin and Tylenol. It helped so much!!! After about a week of sleeping in the car seat in the bed and suffering through breathing treatments, Wren was finally on the mend! We were glad to have our little girl back to normal!
