Sickness update

Well Lucas did end up being admitted to the hospital last Sunday. He came home Monday night. He was a totally different little guy from when we took him there then when we brought him home thank goodness. He is doing good. Took him for his follow up appointment on Thursday and Dr. Leonard said he sounded good. She also said that when he gets sick with a cold for the rest of the year he probably will wheeze due to having the RSV. He weighed 19 pounds 11 ounces at the doctors on Thursday.

Monday morning as i was getting things ready for Rachael to goto Grandma's house while i was up seeing Lucas, i came back in and she was covered in vomit. She had gotten sick earlier in the morning too after she ate and i had given her steroids. So i got her all cleaned up, new clothes on and she did it again on the changing table. So i took those clothes off and before i got them completely off, she got sick again. So i called the doctor and wanted me to take her to the hospital to have blood drawn and she would see her at 130. So thats what we did. Her blood tests came back good and didnt show signs of her being dehydrated thank goodness. But when she looked in her ears it showed she had double ear infections. So she is on medicine for that. She is doing better. Still coughing from her upper respiratory infection but doing alot better. She weighed 12 pounds 14 ounces at WIC on Thursday. Still our little peanut..

They start physical therapy twice this week Monday and Wednesday. Their therapist will be leaving us shortly. She is going to take over some little kids that is closer to her house and the other PT will take over the Waverly kids because she lives here. Makes sense because of the gas prices but we will miss her.... She is going to do one session a week with them while they are making the transition over to the new therapist....
