Sick Again :(

The last time i blogged was May 19th and here we are over a month later and she is sick again. :(
The last few days Riley has been really fussy, running a small fever and drooling - which we assumed was related to the molars she is cutting. But after a few hours in today at work, daycare called and said: she is not herself.
I picked her up to a 103.5 temperature and just not herself at all. :(
I took her to the doctor and she had the same infection she had last month just not as bad this time. She will be on antibiotics here in a few hours so I hope to have the old Riley back soon. :)

In other news Riley is eating like a champ. She will take jarred baby food in the mornings at daycare as she really wont eat fruit, but other then that we are fully on solid foods. She is down to a few bottles a day and drinking full time on the sippy cup. Her favorite foods: soy butter or almond butter on bread, hummus (plain) and just eating it out of a bowl and yogurt. She cannot get enough of the latter two.
We have tried most foods on her except for Peanut Butter and Honey - but we were given the green light to try this after she is not sick and when we are back in town.

We leave exactly in one week for Houston and we are getting everything prepared now. There is a lot to pack for a baby and now that she is so active I have to bring lots of fun things for her to do on the plane too.

Here are a few fun photos I have taken; see shutterfly account for more!

New Riley Vids

Now that Riley is viral (and i mean in the Internet virtual world of videos) I have to keep putting more and more up as the demand is so great. :)

Riley is sick this week, been very rough Memorial day weekend. I ended up getting food poisoning starting late Friday night into Sunday, running the gamut of ickiness and a bad fever. This is all the while also having a migraine and trying to comfort a very sick Riley. so the Lodato household was full of sickness..... no wonder Andy wanted to stay away. :)
Riley got a fever on Saturday and wanted nothing but to be held. her eyes were goopy along with her sniffly nose, but at the time other then that she was fine. The fever broke Sunday and we thought she was doing better - alas I stayed home from work and she is sick with a fever again. :(
We are going to the doctor tomorrow as she is not herself. At grandma/Grandpa Kletchkas today as I thought she could use the time out of the house and she is not even very happy to see them, which is rare for her. Poor thing is not feeling well. :(
She just recently lost her voice to top it all off so when she cries there is barely a peep.

Well on a joyful note, i am posting videos of her highlights of the week before. Enjoy!!!!
