It Finally Happened...

Two things actually:

Thing #1:

Quinn is a good combination of dare devil/clumsy.  It is shocking to me that she hasn't really hurt herself yet.  She took a tumble from the top to the bottom of the stairs.  Luckily she landed on several stuffed animals (probably also the reason why she fell).  She walked away a little traumatized of the stairs and with a big knot on her forehead.  I'll take it over broken bones!! 

Thing #2
Quinn has been the healthiest baby for the past 22 months.  Other than the reflux, she has only had a couple slight colds and one stomach bug.  Not one fever in her almost two years!!  I knew our streak couldn't last forever and it finally came to an end this past weekend.  Quinn started running a fever on Friday afternoon and maintained a low grade fever all weekend with a barky cough to top it off.  Luckily I was off on Monday for President's Day so we took her into the pediatrician and they found an ear infection in her right ear.  She is going on day three of antibiotics right now and has done a 180.  She is getting back to her happy, crazy self and I couldn't be happier.

Friday afternoon. You know something is up when this girl wants to sit on the couch all day.

 This is how she looked by Monday morning :(

Passed out watching Doc McStuffins

 
Quinn took Nolan down with her.  After we got home from the pediatrician Nolan was complaining of being cold.  Sure enough, he had a fever too and started coughing that day.  He bounced back quickly and fever free 24 hours later.

Poor, sick boy.  His cough is really bothering his throat so he was able to suck on Luden's cough drops for the first time.  He thinks this is really cool.

I'm happy to report that Quinn is no longer terrified of the stairs and that both kids are back to their active, happy selves :)
