Quiet...

Yesterday Addison was sick.  She woke up at 6:30-- was acting normal.  When Isaac went downstairs to play she said she'd meet him there and then she went to her bed instead.  I thought she was just trying to be a stinker to Isaac, but after a couple hours she was still sleeping.  I checked to see if she was sick and she wasn't warm...  A couple hours after that I checked on her and she was HOT!  I checked her temp and she was around 102 or 103.  She slept till noon.  Got up but didn't really do anything the rest of the day. 

The funny part was at 11, Levi asked me if it was nap time.  I told him no, it's not nap time, he said "but it's just SO quiet today".  He's right-- it was quiet.  Addison kind of runs the show around here-- she talks all day long and tells her brothers what to play, when to play and how to play.  I think they were at a loss as to what to do without her telling him! 

By 6 last night her fever (under her armpit) was 103.7....  that's when I finally gave her a fever-reducer.  Within an hour of medicine she was down to 99.8 and ready to eat some cereal.

She woke up at midnight-- temp was 103.5.... more medicine.  Now she just got up at 8:30 this morning and seems to be feeling normal-- she's talking and sitting up and complaining.  Temp of 99.1 today........ 

Hopefully that's the end of this fever.  Poor girl!

We went to Duluth on August 14th-- just for a day of fun with the kids.  The kids loved chasing sea gulls around...  We also saw a ship leave the harbor, went mini-golfing and let the kids swim in Lake Superior for awhile.  It was a great day.  At one point Isaac and I were watching the sea gulls for awhile... a man walked by us and Isaac looked at me and said "That guy is AWESOME!"  He wasn't anything interesting, so I'm not sure what Isaac was seeing, but it was funny.

Also, Isaac keeps telling us to call him "Ice".  :)
