Emma's RSV!!

Emma's stuffy nose and cough got worse (but she never did run a fever, thank goodness), so I took her to the doctor Wednesday, February 29th. Turns out, she had RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus)! The doctor gave her some medicine to help with the cough and congestion, and sent us home. She had us schedule a follow up appointment for that Friday, March 2nd though.

 Waiting at the doctor's office

She still has been her happy self for the most part though!

All ready to head back to the doctor's office on Friday! We thought she was doing better because the medicine was making most of her symptoms much better, but as it turned out, she was worse. She was wheezing in her right lung, so we've been having to do Albuterol breathing treatments. They seem to really help though!

Taking a nap after our doctor's visit.

And waking up from another nap...Emma has been sleeping a ton since she has been sick! Poor baby :(

She has still been enjoying her rice cereal, although she hadn't had much of an appetite until about yesterday. She had lost a little weight between our doctor's appointments on Wednesday & Friday!

Emma even fell asleep while watching Mickey Mouse Club House!

 She has been very interested in all foods. So to distract her from our Pei Wei one evening, we gave her the plastic spoon that came with one of our meals. She was so excited!

And another nap...

She sleeps in the cutest positions :)

Playing with her toys a couple of days ago, when she was finally starting to feel better!

Playing with the pillows

Feeling so much better yesterday! Emma playing in the kitchen while I worked on a tutu order.

She has been so sleepy since she has been sick, she's been falling asleep in all sorts of strange positions!

Snuggling with Mommy again

 Like I said earlier, pretty much all she's been doing is sleeping...

...and taking breathing treatments. At least she's a good sport about it!

Here's a couple pictures of the pups! They're such little models...hahah

Last night Emma got her first taste of green beans!

And she loved them! She ate 3/4 of the container (not to mention the part of it she & I were both wearing by the time she was done "helping" me feed her...haha)!

Here's the video of her eating the green beans for the first time:

Emma is doing much better now, although she is still coughing and a bit congested, and she is still sleeping quite a bit. But when she's awake, she is very happy and playful, and we can tell she is feeling much better! :)

Here's a video of Emma taking her breathing treatment last night (like Pops requested)! Just warning you, it's very long...

I painted Emma's toe nails (for the first time!) this afternoon while she was taking her nap! We now have matching green toes for St. Patrick's Day! She is very proud of them (and so am I)! :)

We will be going to Abilene next week for a visit while the family is on spring break! We will probably be there Wednesday through Sunday (Emma & I going on Wednesday, and Colton joining us for the weekend once he gets off work Friday). We are so excited about seeing all of our family next weekend (March 16th-18th) for Memaw & Papaw's 60th wedding anniversary party! You can bet I will have lots of pictures to post the following week! :)

Have a great rest of the week, and a great Spring Break! I will post more pictures when we get back from Abilene! :)
