Keira update

Keira has Bronchilolitis... (sp?) basically just a viral cold. The doctor said its everywhere and in epidemic proportions right now. He didn't bother to test her for RSV because basically its the same thing and has the same treatment.. as in no treatment because its viral. Just in time for our trip to IA... Now I have to find room in my packed suitcase for a Nebulizer..... He gave us the Nebulizer because Keira is still wheezing and given that Mike has asthma there is a pretty good chance she will have it too... Keira is NOT a fan of the Neb. We will have to post a pic of it later. Its a challenge to do it because you have to hold the mask near her face so she can breath in the meds.The good news is Keira isn't acting sick and doesn't look sick. When we went to get the medicine for the Nebulizer at Target Keira was sitting in her stroller babbling and laughing and the pharmacist said.. "Well you don't look sick!!"
And yes in the picture below Keira's socks do match her shirt.

I hope she feels better. Brooke has had that..hers did not last more than a day or two usually. I love the pics below it is like she is raising her pants up so you can see her socks.

Oh not fun! At least it started at your house so she didn't have to go to the doctor while you were here.
