Thankful Thursday, week 4

I know I missed last week but here is what I'm thankful for day.

1. Tylenol - It helped Abby's fever so much this week. She may still be sick but she would be a lot worse without it.

2. Nurse line - When Abby got the chills yesterday, the doctors office had already closed. But thankfully we had a great nurse on the exchange who stayed on the line. While we took her temp, stripped her down to look for spots and talked us through all her new dosage.

3. Dave -Abby just wanted mommy this week, leaving household chores up to Dave. He helped me make our Thanksgiving dessert, after Abby went into meltdown halfway through its completion. He also brought us juice, milk, blankets and made sure all the ringers were off on the phones.

4. Extended family - Mary Kay & Jim thanks for feeding us on Thanksgiving even though we couldn't be there. The food was excellent!

5. Abigail - The funniest sick kid around. Although she had snot pouring out of her nose and she was very vocal the last few days. She still kept us laughing. She went from throwing a fit every time we cleaned her nose to today - she just stood still and let me suck the nastiness away. The screams, Abby has developed a very loud scream. Not a cry but a scream. For no reason. She just likes to hear her voice. It's loud. Dave doesn't like to be in the same room when she screams. Hopefully it will pass.
