Day Four for Fever Baby....

Well, poor Monkey5 is still running a fever between 103-104.2 non stop. Another trip to the Ped yesterday and they still have no idea what is wrong with her. She's completely miserable though, poor thing! This is all she wants to do today:



The other kids got to go to a really fun birthday party today - a "come as your favorite space creature" party. We have a variety of aliens pictured below, and a robot on the end even though her silver face make up didn't show in the picture:



Sick baby and I are marooned at home while they are off having fun!

In other news, I have 28 potential baby chickens on my dresser in an incubator right now:



I ordered 12 maran [chocolate egg layers] & Ameraucana [green egg layers]hatching eggs off ebay, and 10 black australorps too [temporary insanity maybe? LOL!]. They arrived this week - ALL of them are perfect, and both sellers sent extras so I have *28* eggs to hatch!!! I was expecting half of them to not even make it through the mail....[that's what everyone said to expect when ordering off eBay...!]

Guess I'll be giving some chickens away if I get more than half of these things to hatch... of course, this is our first time trying, so we may not even get one... we will see!

How exciting though!

There are few things more sad than a feverish baby. I'm glad you finally figured out what the problem is and that Monkey5 is on the mend.
