Poor Girl

I stayed home with Ella on Tuesday and today. Her chest congestion has gotten worse. Last night she was up for a couple hours hacking, gagging, and crying so I decided it was time to take her to the doctor. She has croup. They gave her a dose of oral steroid. Hopefully she will start feeling better. She is such a riot though. On the way to the doctor, out of nowhere, she tells me she's going to the doctors to feel better and that the doctor will check her ears. At the doctors as soon as the PNP sits down in front of her she simultaneously opens her mouth and lifts her shirt (guess she remembers her heart being listened to and looking in the throat). Then five minutes after we leave the doctors she yells out in the car "I feel better"!
