Ryan had his hands full this past weekend. We went up to my parents and his parents houses last Friday night to visit and while we were there I suddenly got the chills and ended up with a fever. I was sick to my stomach and had migrane-like headaches and a fever. Needless to say I didn't sleep well that night...and I was very very paranoid about how close I was to Kamryn because I didn't want her to get whatever I had. I knew that it could potentially be infection from giving birth 3 weeks ago, but there was still the possibility that it could be a virus and that scared me. So, Ryan took care of me--shivering in bed, crying because I didn't know what else to do-- and took care of Kamryn when she got up in the middle of the night. I had luckily been able to pump a bottle of milk the day before so he fed her Friday night so I wouldn't have to be near her when I had a fever of 102.6. It was a long night, but we survived.
Saturday morning we called the on-call doctor and he said maybe I should go get looked at at an instacare. I was so miserable so we went. And sure enough they found out I had a breast infection (like many women get who are breastfeeding) and he prescribed pain killers and antibiotics. By that night I felt MUCH better! And I was very relieved that Kamryn wasn't at risk to get a fever or a virus!
Otherwise, we're doing fine here. We are trying to take full advantage of the last few weeks of summer. And we're taking pictures galore of our little one. Here's some of the latest!
Helping mommy and daddy work at the office of our apartment complex!
Looking cute! (Very good at holding her pacifier in AND flipping it out with her hands!!)

Soo cute! What a good husband! That's horrible about the infection. Is there anything we can do for you? Also, when would be a good time for us to come visiting teaching?
Glad to hear that you're feeling better, the recovery can be a little interesting after birth. She's getting so big so fast! Love the pictures.
So, so beautiful! She's a stunning little girl with all her dark features! I'm sorry to hear you had a BI. I've been lucky to not have had one up to this point. I completely agree, though it stinks, thank heavens it's not something K can catch!
So sorry to hear about this. Those are MISERABLE!! Nice to know you're in good hands with Ryan and are felt better so fast.
Kamryn looks as adorable as ever!
