8 days and "a little bit sick"

We are having a very nice relaxing weekend with not much going on except that little A is "a little bit sick" (her words).  We are being THOSE parents right now that rush to the doctor's office for any minor thing because of our travel being SO close.  She went to the pediatrician yesterday and they checked her out and said it was just a cold.  We took her to urgent care today because her fever went up (103.5) and she didn't want to eat or drink anything.  They ran a strep and UTI test and it all came back negative.  We are hoping she starts to feel better by Monday.

To be on the safe side we are putting her in a bubble until we leave on Monday ;) so we can avoid any other crazy illnesses until we leave ;D! Well that is partially true because we aren't going to take her to preschool next week.  Logistically, it will be a crazy Monday and Tuesday, but after that I'm off of work so it will all work itself out.

On a separate note...Little A has been adding things to the luggage.  Today I found a book, a princess crown and wand in the front pocket of her luggage.  I'll have to inspect and see what else I find in there.  We've been watching a movie called Shae by Air that talks about what to expect in an airport and how to behave on a airplane, etc., etc.  We always watch this before any flight and it has really helped Little A out with her behavior.  The movie comes with a packing list and Little A found the list a couple of days ago.  She had me place it on a clipboard and told me that we need to use her list to pack her Trunki.  She is MY daughter after all!  We are 2 packing peas in a pod!  She went around telling the people at the doctor's office today that she has a packing list for Colombia.  They were a bit confused :S.

We have 8 days left until we board our flight....thank goodness tomorrow is another day with nothing on the schedule except relaxing, tying up some loose ends, and getting Little A some relaxation so she can start to feel better.  We're hoping she can sleep tonight after 2 nights of minimal sleep we are ALL feeling the effects...
