Poor Baby!

After 3 straight weeks of being sick, we caught a glimmer of hope today. Hyrum's fever broke late yesterday afternoon, and Kaitlyn seemed to be feeling better. Amy has been responding great to the antibiotic and so we weren't worried anymore about her. We were able to attend the Atlanta Temple open house (I was sure I would miss it due to sick kids). We were very thankful the kids were doing well so that we could go as a family and with some friends. That was the end of our healthy glimmer...

When we got home, Amy suddenly came down with a fever herself (it was crazy how sudden it was). Kaitlyn also threw up again. Big sigh! Kaitlyn decided she felt better in the evening and really wanted to color Easter eggs. We could tell Amy did not feel well, because she spent the entire time crashing on the couch watching tv while we dyed Easter eggs. She did not move at all except when I would come over to take her picture, and then she was only moving because I was blocking the tv. The pictures were taken while she was on a dose of Advil, so you can imagine how she looked before she got the medicine. One funny thing with Amy, she's a complete lover of music and has to dance when she hears an upbeat piece. She was wasted with the fever but heard some big band music start, and she had to lightly move her body to the rhythm anyway! She's a cute little sickie, and we really hope she feels better soon! We're glad Hyrum's feeling better at least!

Amy is an adorable couch potato! It's funny because I looked at my sister-in-laws blog right before yours and the blog post title was the same! I really hope you all get feeling better soon!
