What a crazy week this has been. Adyson developed a bad cough and cold which went on for days and days. Of course we tried our best to keep her away from the baby, but this was nearly impossible. For those of you who know my little Adyson you will understand me perfectly. When she started complaining of a sore throat we thought perhaps she had strep throat so Wayne took her to the doctor. Much to our surprise her throat was fine, although she had developed an ear infection....her first one which is pretty rare given her age. Trevor had a little cold at that time l but we were not too concerned. The next day he developed a cough as well so back to the doctor we went just to be safe given his young age. His pediatrician said that his lungs sounded OK at that time so home we went! The next day he developed a little fever and was wheezing so they advised us to come back in. The girls had just laid down for a nap so as you can predict they were in fine moods when I had to wake them up and drag them with me to the doctor. Sure enough, when they checked him out they were very concerned about the sound of his lungs, and his labored breathing/increased breath rate. They sent us right to the hospital, and Uncle Steve came to the rescue and met us there to exchange the girls. The snow had conveniently just started to come down and the roads were super slick....just to make things even more exciting! When we arrived, tests confirmed that he had RSV. They decided to admit him, and as luck would have it the hospital was completely full and we had to be transferred to another hospital down town (much less convenient than the one we were at which was 1/2 mile from the house). I went with the baby, and Wayne returned home to be with the girls. I forgot to mention that Wayne was also super sick at the time, so it was probably a good thing that he wasn't around the baby. Here are some pics of our poor little man. He is on the mend and will hopefully feel better each day.
On a happier note, here are some pics of the girls from the Denver Stock Show Rodeo. The girls had a blast. Olivia's favorite event was watching the little kids ride the goats....it was hysterical! Crazy that they were all her age....cannot imagine her having enough guts to do that!
When I asked her if she would, she said "Mommy, that is not safe!"....very predictable Olivia response.
And lastly, a few more pics of the little man....he is growing so fast!
Adyson has a follow up appointment with her ENT tomorrow to confirm that her ear infection has cleared up so that we can proceed with her surgery on Feb. 1st. Too bad we can't get a frequent flyer discount! Hope this week is better that last !
