Trip to the ER

After Kelly starting throwing up at 3 AM on Christmas Day, and continued on an hourly basis for about 30 hours, I called the pediatrician to see if they thought she should come in. After I answered a few questions, they promptly sent me to the emergency room. Due to her obvious dehydration, I figured I'd better obey.

She was very lethargic. Here she is waiting for the doctor to see us. It's probably a good thing they couldn't get an IV started because the little bit of anti-nausea medication they gave her did the trick.
Finally a quarter-smile after days of being miserable!
Discharged and ready to go home. Fortunately Kelly was much better today (she only threw up once since we went home). Unfortunately I was the next to succumb to the bug, then Granddaddy, then Daddy. I just hope we're all much better by the weekend!

Kelly was so generous with her germs. Next, it went to Grandma and Aunt Samantha.
