I decided to change the name of my blog and added a few "new" things to it as well...Eventually it will be laid out the way I'd like and look nice....After a weekend like I (we) had, I thought this title "A Time For Everything" fit well with our lives....
Saturday was a great day. I went to Meijer to pick up the supplies we would need for our "summer jars" and Rachel's responsibility chart. After lunch Paul, the girls and I went to Captain Sundae where we met up with one of my College of Ed friends (we also went to the same church when we lived in Holland) and had a great time catching up and meeting her baby boy Peyton! With the weather being so hot our ice cream melted fast and when we got back to Paul's parent's house we all went out on the boat and went swimming in Lake Michigan. That was a welcomed way to cool down!
Sunday we went to church, and while there I noticed Abbie's skin was burning up. We blamed it (at first) on the weather and the fact that she was teething. We went to McDonalds for lunch and I really knew something was wrong when she wouldn't eat a fry...we came straight home and I took her temperature. It was 102.6! I gave her Tylenol and she went down for a nap. A couple of hours later when she woke up her temp. had gone down to 101.2 degrees, but she would eat, drink, or play and all she wanted to do was cuddle and sleep. I called the Dr. and she said since she wasn't drinking anything to take her into the ER. We got there and her fever was up to 104.7!!! Turns out she has a middle ear infection. Last night was a rough night, but she is on antibiotics now and Motrin...hopefully she will bounce back soon!
We also made "Summer Jars," an idea I got from one of my facebook friends. I am very obsessive compulsive when it comes to scheduling and organizing my time...these "jars" makes it easier to be more spontaneous and easy going when it comes to my time. I don't know how to post links on blogger yet, but if you're interested in "summer jars" here is the website you can go to, to create your own! http://betterway.webi.st/articles/the-summer-jar
