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.
