Our sick little girl

Our sweet little girl has had a pretty deep cough for about the past week and there were a few days with a high fever. The cough wasn't letting her get much sleep and it seemed to be hurting her, so we decided to take her into the doc.

It turns out she has bronchiolitis, which is an infection in the airways. I really hope this doesn't develop into asthma for her later in life. (No worries, she's no longer contagious. Just wanted to get that out there for those that are coming over this weekend for Ryder's birthday party.)

Since it's a virus there aren't any antibiotics to help with the cough (and we all know the recent findings about cough medicine for our little ones), but they did put her on a nebulizer that we have to adminster 2-3 times a day. It's to help open up her airways and unclog the mucus in her lungs.

Here are some pics of her with the nebulizer. Poor girl.

Funny pics & video

I told you about our trip to Seattle, well David sent us some additional photos and video from the trip that I wanted to share.


The Tucker Bordner family. The funny thing is, even though Payton is upside down - she still looks like she's having a good time!

Oh, and this video is pretty entertaining of the boys down on the field before the Seahawks game while the players were warming up. Watch out Jeremy!
