Saturday was a beautiful day! We played outside
and had a picnic lunch.
We even shared our lunch with the dogs.
On Saturday night, we went to cousin Ceily's 6th birthday party.
Jumping in the bounce house with cousin Seger
On Sunday morning, I got up early to bake cookies for a bake sale at work.
Around 6:30, I heard Shawn running down the stairs. He was hollering something, but I couldn't understand him. Finally, he ran into the room carrying a limp Harper screaming, "She can't breathe!" She appeared to be having a seizure and was choking on the saliva pooling in her mouth. Her eyes were rolled back in her head, and she was non-responsive. After what felt like an eternity, she started crying. She felt very warm and feverish. We rushed her to the hospital.
After a LOT of tests, the doctors determined that she had a viral throat infection and an ear infection. The doctor said that a febrile seizure is not caused by a high temperature (hers was only 102) but by a sudden rise in body temperature. She was a bit lethargic on Sunday morning, but was back to her normal active self by Sunday afternoon. What a scary morning! We are counting our blessings that it wasn't anything more serious.
