Today papa decided to put up some shelves in the garage plus putting up the ceiling fan in both of the girls bedrooms. Come this summer it will most definitly get quite hot up here in the Northwest. It feels even hotter especially when we don't get any wind. Mimi loves helping out whenever she can.Up until this afternoon she seemed perfectly fine. Once lunch was over, she decided to lay down and take a nap. When she awoke, mama saw that her cheeks were quite rosey in color. I guess for most kids it looks good on them but not our Mimi. Sure enough she had a temperature of 101. Therefore papa went to grandma and grandpa's house for dinner by himself.
Mama stayed home with Mimi. Mama then gave Mimi some St. Joseph's aspirin and lots of fluids. The temperature did spike up to 103.1 Mama then put Mimi in the tub and cooled her off with cool tepid water, another dose of St. Joseph's and ice packs and more fluids. Now the temperature is coming down back to 101 thank goodness.
Mimi does say that she feels much better. She is now sleeping peacefully. Mama in the meantime is still up and checking in on her every 10 minutes changing the cold washcloths to her neck and head.
There will definitely be no school for tomorrow.
