Sick

My poor girl has had what I thought was a cold for 3 weeks now. Finally Friday I decided the poor girl has dealt with it long enough and I called the doctors office. Well, come to find out, her doctor only works Mondays now and is booked until mid-November! Obviously that wasn't going to work, so I had to schedule her in to see another doctor for today (luckily they are open 7 days a week!) So this morning at 9 I took Emily in to a doctor she had never seen before...if you know my daughter, she is just like me and extremely shy around people she doesn't know. Most doctors are very patient and understanding...not this one. I was less than impressed with her and refuse to let my daughter see her again. However, we did get a diagnosis of a bacterial sinus infection and she is now on some really strong antibiotics for 5 days. If they don't work, I am taking her back in and seeing the P.A. that we have seen before and I love. So, let's hope she gets feeling better soon.
Last Wednesday Emily went on her first fieldtrip of the school year. They went to a pumpkin patch in Corvallis. She got to pick out a pumpkin, which all of the pumpkins were green, and in the words of Emily, got to go on a ride with hay seats! She was exhausted when they got back. My parents picked her up because my mom and dad both got off of work around the time they were supposed to be back (the bus ended up getting back over an hour late because of construction.) But I do believe they all had fun. Next week they are having a Halloween party and she gets to wear her costume!
Speaking of Halloween, I was supposed to get the night off, but my manager "forgot" and is now unable to give it to me. So I will miss her very first Trick or treat experience, but hopefully my mom can take her.
