First official ER visit

Last Friday Josh and I dropped Alexis off at her friend's house while we went on a date at Urban Wine Company in downtown Omaha.
The weather was BEAUTIFUL so we sat on the patio and had lots of happy hour fun :)  
People watching, chatting about life, and dreaming about the future...perfect for a Friday night! 

As we were on the way to pick up the princess  we got a call that her fever had spiked to 105.  You can't imagine the panic I felt.  Five minutes away and it seemed like we'd never get there.  I knew she was in good hands, but still they weren't my hands. 

The second we pulled up Josh and I both ran in the house, scooped her up, and zoomed over to the closest ER.  On the way she kept saying (in the saddest voice) "poor baby, o, no"
She wants her Daddy when she's sick

Checking Oxygen levels

Watching TV after the meds began to take effect


After being assessed by the doc, he determined that it was likely a virus and we went home after about 2 hours.

She spent the weekend being pumped full of fever reducers every four hours, laying around, and watching endless hours of television.

We followed up with the doctor on Monday.  She was diagnosed with an ear infection.

A couple of antibiotic doses later she was pretty much back to her old self!
