Sick Day

Wednesday, a classmate of Reagan's got sent home from school with strep throat. Last night Reagan was running a little bit of a fever and she has been coughing for the past couple of days, so we gave her some cough syrup from the doctor's office. It didn't turn out so well!! As you can see from the pictures, Reagan is allergic to the active ingredient in most cough syrups.

You know Reagan is sick when she would rather take a nap than eat supper or a snack. She stayed on the couch most of the evening and, true to her high maintenance self, milked it for all it was worth. And of course, Greg and I gave in to whatever she wanted!!
The usually happy bath taking Reagan wasn't even having fun in the water!!
We took her to the doctor this morning and he thinks she just has a virus. They did do a strep test to rule that out. Reagan was very brave and let them swab the back of her throat.
