WHEW

We got out our 3D projector my BF Kelley gave my son for his birthday..and last Monday we had bought a new slide show "Wilds of Africa" for $2.39 @ Hobby Lobby. Who Knew we would need it so soon??? Trust me there is something on the wall...I think it was Zebras...I guess the flash made it "disappear."

The nebulizer treatment. Again, thank you Kelley for letting us borrow your machine!

This is where she is most of the day and night...my bed

My sweet baby girl was burning up through the night and I could hear the pneumonia by putting my ear to her chest. I gave her treatments with the nebulizer instead of her inhaler/mask...and I have been dumping mucinex down her religiously. Tonight we went to the recommended after hours pediatric facility, and the doctor was SOOO kind and a lady...She was great. She listened carefully a few times. She couldn't hear a thing :-). Now like she said it is likely all the breathing treatments, but still we'll take it :-). My daughter's pulse ox was up to 95/96, so that shows improvement as well. She did give her a 2nd shot of the antibiotics (1 in each leg just like last night). She wrote her a prescription for 2 oral antibiotics to kill "every possible microrganism conceivable." We are to continue the breathing treatments and follow up Monday with our regular pediatrician (whom I LOVE...he is always so careful with my babies). She said of anything changes before then to come back there. YAY! We should be on the mend :-). She still looks awful, so it may take a few more days of being carried and babied...but she should be up and running before we know it!

Unfortunately my baby boy is wheezing and has a slight fever. I am pouring mucinex down him, Flovent, albuterol and plenty of fluids and rest. Monday he will get checked, too!

The sad part in all of this...we were supposed to drive to Denver with my husband. We would had to leave today...and that was obviously not possible. So after 5 weeks straight of working in town...my husband is leaving tomorrow night. We do have cousins coming in from Nashville...and the husband will be home very early Friday morning...That is okay :-)!

Thank you for praying...Thank you Michawn for your sweet words...you ALWAYS have a way of making me feel cared for and make me teary...mommy's are so emotional sometimes!!!
