Better Late than Never


The sickness continues. It settled into Jayme's lungs and developed into advanced bronchitis. Jayme went back to the doctor after three days of being on medication. The doctor took one look at him and said, "yep, the medication isn't working." Like we hadn't figured that one out. Jayme got put on some stronger stuff and he is finally starting to feel a difference. He feels like there is a light at the end of the tunnel at last. Katarina went in for her four month check-up on Wednesday. I can't believe she is four months. The doctor says that she looks healthy and strong. He let her stand up for him and was very impressed with her strength. He said that she will be an early walker. He also said that she has very good looking ear drum so not to expect too many ear infections. That was really nice to hear. She is still struggling with her cold. She has mucus coming out both ends. Then she got her shots on top of that. She has spent most of the last two days sleeping, poor girl. She is very happy when she is awake though. That was another thing that the doctor was impressed with, her disposition, that she was so smiley and alert and aware of what was going on around. She is now in the 58th percentile for weight at 13 lbs 15 oz. and the 90th percentile for height, at over 25 inches. She is a growing girl. It is kind of funny though, she is in between sizes right now. She is too long for the clothes that she has been wearing and too skinny for the next size up. She will probably struggle with that for a good portion of her growing up years. I did, until I had her. We hope that everyone has a wonderful Valentines day.
