Trying to sit up and feel better
Ryan's dad, "Pop Pop" taking care of her.
Poor little girl
Elyse got strep throat for the first time last week. After a week of antibiotics, it still wouldn't go away. I'm sure that there is nothing in the world as bad as having a sick child. :-( To see her feeling so bad and having very little control over it was terrible. She ran a fever of 102.5 and was just miserable. She is now on another antibiotic and seems to be back to herself. Now the trick is keeping it away! Did you know that strep germs can live on a surface for a month??!! Yuck! We have cleaned all of her toys and all of our house in hopes that will take care of it. I think what she needs is for this warm weather to stick around!
On a brighter note, we have hit the 19 month mark and she is amazing us more and more everyday with what she is doing and what she knows. Her language has skyrocketed and she said her first 4 word sentence the other day. She is definitely a little girl and no longer a baby. Our next step is to get rid of the "bobby," which she named her pacifier. :-) Our goal is by age 2 it will be gone! Think we can do it??!!

Here's a what we did to get rid of the pacifer. We went to my mom's for the weekend and told Mary Beth when we got home that we left it at Nana's. She cried a little the first few nights but not too bad. After about 2 weeks she quit asking for it and after a month we got her a small toy for being a big girl. We are going on two months now with our "paci." Hope this helps :)
We are glad Lysee is feeling better. (And you too Katie!) We are ready for the nice weather to get here and stay too. Can't wait to get the girls together.
