Seizure #3

Addie just had another febrile seizure tonight. Brian and I are becoming experts at this. She woke up from a nap burning up, Brian gave Motrin, I came down from putting Ben to bed, felt her head and gave her Tylenol too. Five minutes later she was seizing. This time she threw everything in her stomach up. Then instead of falling asleep for an hour, she was just really loopy and out of it. NOT FUN! We're taking her to the on-call ped tomorrow at 11:45, to figure out what the infection is. UGH, I HATE THIS PART OF BEING A PARENT. Nothing worse than seeing your child hurt and sick.

Other than those late developments, we had a nice day. It poured here until around 1pm. We went to Ilka's Halloween party with the kids in their costumes. Of course, they stole th show. Even after the costumes came off, Addie entertained in her usual way. Then we had dinner at Applebee's and had 4 different couples/groups come up during the course of our meal to say what beautiful, fun and well-behaved children we have. That felt great.

Oh Cory, those seizures have to be really scary. Poor little Addie. But at least you had a good time and the party and dinner sounds like.
