Well, we've had an interesting week with Dave gone. Kale is really having a hard time with Daddy being gone. It didn't help that it was spring break for him, so he didn't get to have school as a distraction either. Jaylee had a cold all week, and was sounding pretty bad yesterday. She started wheezing and really having a hard time, so I ended up taking her into the ER. They did a few breathing treatments for her, and a chest x-ray and diagnosed her with Bronchiolitis from RSV. Thankfully, I was able to take her home after just a few hours. They talked about keeping her overnight for observation. They put her on albuterol and a steroid to help clear out her lungs. She slept the whole night last night for the first time in a week. It's amazing what happens when you can breathe! She is doing so much better today. She has perked up quite a bit, and is eating again. Praise God! I am so thankful it wasn't any more serious. We went to the pediatrician this morning so he could look her over. He was pleased with how much she has improved already.
Alana is very insistent on picking out her own clothes and accessories lately, which is sometimes pretty funny. For the most part, she picks out things that match well. The hat and purse were cute additions. :o)
