The next day we traveled to see my college roommate, Julie, and her cute family! Ellie is about 6 weeks older than Hollyn. The girls had fun playing together. We compared notes on the two little drama queens. We then got to enjoy lunch at Freebirds with them. We love the chance to eat at Freebirds! The girls were so good while we ate. We couldn't get them to smile for a picture!! Little did I know that while they were playing together, Hollyn was spreading a virus to sweet Ellie!
From there we traveled to stay with Jesse, Dori and Hazel. Hazel is about 6 weeks younger than Hollyn. And the SWEETEST, CALMEST child I have been around lately! The girls were so cute playing and talking together. We played at a park in the afternoon, and then the girls played in the tub together. Guess which child went to bed LAST that night?
Hollyn had a Blast in the swings!

Hollyn was giving me some love in this picture! So sweet!
Here are the two peas in a pod. They tend to make the EXACT same expressions...
That night at about 2 am, I noticed that Hollyn was shivering. I felt her and she was very hot. Thankfully, I brought Tylenol with me, so I gave her some. She was restless the whole night, but by morning she didn't act too sick. We packed up and traveled home. The girl did not make one peep for the whole 3 hour trip, and she never went to sleep. I knew something was wrong then! We didn't get home in time to see the Dr. so I made an appt. for the next morning. After a nap at home, Hollyn woke up and was BURNING up. I took her temp and it was almost 104! I freak when I see a fever, especially since she has not been sick since last May. So we made a trip to the Urgent Care. They decided to treat her for Strep Throat since she had all the symptoms. Praise the Lord, she was back to herself later that week. This is how I found her watching her favorite show, Olivia, while she was sick...
And sweet Ellie, we are SO sorry that we made you sick!!! Thankfully, no one else got it!

Looks like a fun trip! Let's have lunch soon and I'll give you all the scoop!
Yay for DVD players on road trips!! It looks like y'all had a wonderful trip. I'm so sorry she had strep...I hate strep! I would have freaked too at almost 104!!! I hope she's feeling better.
I love the first picture of Hollyn in the swing!
Random question - if you talk to your friend Julie will you ask her where she got that chest/dresser in the background of the picture? I love it! I am looking for something like that for our entry area.
That is such a cute post, all those sweet pictures of Hollyn!
