Solid foods. Ready?

You decide. 

I'm thinking either she's not ready or it was just the wrong time of day for her. 

P is for Pneumonia

It turned out that Isa didn't just have a little cold. Add in a fever and wheezing lungs and you have bronchiolitis. The ped gave her a nebulizer and said to watch for a spike in fever and worsening of the cough. 

The next day her fever got a little higher. Once it reached 101 we took another trip to the ped who sent us for a chest X-ray and blood work. The chest X-ray confirmed she had pneumonia in both lungs. So in addition to the nebulizer three times a day, she was to start taking amoxicillin. 

Skip ahead almost a week later, the little peanut is back to her crazy self, loud, ear-piercing cry and all. 

It was Uncle Mike's birthday amongst all the drama.

Not a Happy First

Isa has her first real cold. Yes she had a cough and sniffles before, but I consider this real because it's accompanied by a slight fever. Tylenol administered and it came down a bit. We're going to try the voodoo technique that Tootsie told us about- baby Vicks on the pigs. Results to come.

The only plus of a sick baby- lots of snuggles. 

I just want to smooch on her. 

Isa's fever crept up a bit today so we took a trip to the doctor. Verdict: she has bronchiolitis. They gave her a fancy new nebulizer for treatments 3 times a day. Her fever started going down some before bedtime. Hoping the peanut starts feeling better soon 👶💞 

Stats: 11 lbs 6.5 oz and a whopping 2 ft in length. (Halfway to Aunt Darlene's height 😂)

Cramming a lot into a Little

By the time Isa and I get home after work it's about 6pm. This leaves a very short window of time we get to spend together. Everything else takes a back burner (even my starving husband if he's home). 

Tonight I managed to squeeze a few smiles and non-crying moments out of her before bed. 

Hanging out with her friends

Telling them about her day

I told her it's not nice to eat her friends. 

They run away when you nibble on them. 

Again she didn't care...she wanted to taste her turtle friend. 

Hmm, what's this squeaking book all about?

First night with bath toys. Her excitement is out of control.
