Last week was a rollercoaster - halloween, returning to work, colds, and more!

Riley wasn't feeling very well last week and was very congested. On Friday evening she was running a temperature and we couldn't get it to drop. She also sounded like she was having some trouble breathing with all of the congestion. We called Dr. Fred and he told us that we should head down to the ER to get her checked out. Once there, Riley's temperature had dropped and she was breathing fine. They had to draw blood and take a urine sample anyway to make sure that she didn't have any infections. It was torture for Riley and me both. After 30 minutes and several tries they were finally able to get everything drawn. All of the results came back normal and I felt horrible that we had to put Riley through hell! I vowed to never overreact again!
I made it through my first week of work. It really wasn't as hard as I had anticipated it being. Although, I'm sure it will be worse when I start taking all of my cases (and their problems) back in the next week!
Riley experienced her first Halloween. To be honest, is was more of a holiday for me as she could care less. Grandma and Grandpa Murphy and Uncle John came over to eat pizza was we handed out candy to all of our trick-or-treaters. Riley wore her Moo Cow onsie. We put her in her Tiger costume for about 5 minutes before she started protesting. For some reason this little girl hates hoods, hats, or anything on her head! After all of the trick-or-treaters were through we went to Grandma and Grandpa Burch's house to show of our little cow. Riley got to see her cousins, Kennedy and Addie. Kennedy was a skelleton and Addie was a pirate.
Here we are: I'm not sure why the picture is so small - I'll fix this on my next entry.

It was late, and our little cow was pooped!
