Sicko

Hazel chose the nicest day of the year to get sick.  It was 80 degrees and sunny outside when Dad called Mom to say, "um, Hazel's not feeling so great..."  Dad told Mom he would take Hazel to Urgent Care and Mom could enjoy her afternoon, but Mom wasn't having any of that.

Poor baby.  She had a 102 degree fever and an early evening trip to Urgent Care (where it was discovered that Ms. Chunky weighs 16 pounds) resulted in a diagnosis of...nobody knows.

Sigh.
However, after returning home and taking liberal doses of baby Tylenol and Ibuprofen, Hazel was feeling more like herself.

After a trip to the pediatrician on Tuesday, Hazel was finally diagnosed with a sinus infection, the result of two months of persistent congestion.  

Good thing babies bounce back so quickly.  After consistent doses of antibiotics, Hazel is feeling more like herself again, just in time to go rock climbing at Smith Rock this weekend.
