Our Kids

And it sucks! I feel just horrible for her since she is so congested and there is nothing I can do. So far it seems like it is draining and not in to her chest. I know she doesn’t realize what is happening and can’t be pitiful like a 5 year old can but I know what is happening so I am pitiful enough for us both. Poor thing. I also realize it is inevitable with 3 older sisters and 2 adults who leave the house that she will get sicker more often in the beginning than Piper and Lela did. I also realize that she will be better off in the long run because she is creating antibodies. It doesn’t really make me feel any better about the whole situation though.

On a lighter note she is getting stronger and loves to hold up her head when she is awake. She has quite a grip with her hands and even turned on to her side once when I had her on her tummy. She still sleeps most of the day but has had several alert periods where she will be up for about 45 minutes, but then the next day she sleeps more.
