That would be Maggie's first contribution to her blog. She really likes to "type" on the computer.
We noticed Maggie was acting strangely on Saturday evening. I had gone to my company holiday party and Liz was at work, so Mags was with some awesome folks, Suze and Bruce (our friend Amy's fantastic parents). When I got home, Maggie was, surprisingly, up and fussing. After a bit I got her down, but she slept poorly. The same happened Sunday night.
Monday we took her to school as usual. She seemed fine at drop off, but we got a call mid-day saying she'd been crying without stop for half an hour, which was very unlike her. I left school and went to get her. Turns out she had a low fever, so we went to see the doctor. Poor Maggie has ear infections in both ears! Thank goodness we followed our instincts and took her in...
She's on antibiotics now and (we think) starting to feel much better. She had a very exciting day today (Tuesday): since she couldn't go to her own school, she went to mine with me! I called and called for a sub, but none was available, so she spent her first day in high school. She was so good.
Here's a pic of her with her new friend, Frodo.
Doesn't she look awesome for a sick baby? The doctor said she was the sweetest sick baby she'd ever seen. Only our little one would still be so darling, even when feeling so cruddy.
Here are a few more pics of her practicing her First Christmas outfit, getting ready for the big day in a couple of weeks. Darling elf! Notice how she sits - so ladylike. Always with her ankles neatly crossed. She even sleeps that way!
Maggie got really "wrapped up" in trimming the tree...
So. Cute.
