Today started very early for Miss Eliza and I. Around 2:30am, I heard little baby whimpering. When I went in, I noticed she had spit up a bit and had moved to a different part of her crib, I guess to get away from it. I picked her up and she gave the signs for being hungry. I fixed her a bottle and put her back down. At 4am, I heard her in the monitor and when I checked on her, she had lost all of the milk that I fed her. I had to change her because she was quite gross and changed her sheets.
For most of the morning, we napped together on the couch. There is nothing sweeter than snuggling up next to this precious baby. I hate that she isn't feeling well, but I love her being cuddly. Since she continued to vomit, I called the nurse and they said to bring her in.
Thankfully, Michael and I got up early to shovel and the city plowed our road early, so we had a nice clear path to get to the doctor. On top of that, it looked pretty outside. Unfortunately, it was in the single digits. We got bundled up and left for the doctor. They said everything looks fine, so she must just have a virus. Equipped with Pedialyte, we went home to snuggle some more.
What I am most thankful for is how happy my Eliza is. Even when she is not feeling well, she has a smile on her face and a kiss for me. I can't get over how cute it is that she laughs at herself being silly. I sure hope that she can always find this joy in life.
