Cute Hair!

Lynnea had a good day today. She started off a little crabby, but her mood improved throughout the day. She went for two wagon rides today, and loved them both. She was even able to leave the unit during one of them. We didn't go very far, but she enjoyed taking a trip around the fifth floor hallways between the units, just for a change of scenery. Ashlyn really enjoyed getting to go along to take Lynnea for one of her wagon rides.

At Dr. St. Louis' request, I put her hair in pigtails today. This was no easy feat, but she looked pretty cute, so I guess it was worth it. Everyone was impressed with her cute hair style during afternoon rounds.

Medically speaking, it was a pretty uneventful day. They continued to wean a little bit more on her narcotics. She has continued to spike fevers the past two days, though other than making her a bit crabby, she hasn't had any other problems associated with the fevers, other than a high heart rate. They continue to run blood cultures when she spikes, but nothing ever comes back positive, so for now they are not going to do anything other than give her Tylenol and ibuprofen to bring her temp back down.
