The Sickness

We had another good week, although Kennedy hasn't felt 100%.  She's been coughing quite a bit.  Some nights, it has even been keeping her up.  On Thursday, she was sent home with a fever so Rachel took her by the doctor's office.  It turns out that she has bronchiolitis.  We've been giving her inhaler treatments ever since.  Rachel stayed at home with her on Friday since she has to be fever free for 24 hours before returning to daycare.

Kennedy continues to inch closer to crawling.  She'll get up on her hands and knees and then just rock back and forth.  She must know that she should be able to crawl because she'll even get a little frustrated when she has a toy just out of her reach. Most of the time she ends up going backwards in fact!

On Thursday evening, Jason made a trip to San Antonio for a series of meetings on Friday.  He returned that evening. This was a little tough on Rachel since she had to do the whole doctor/sick child thing by herself. This sure makes us appreciate one another that much more! We are in amazement on how single parents do it by themselves!

On Saturday, we went to Chuck E Cheese's for a birthday party.  A daughter of one of Rachel's co-workers was turning four. This was Kennedy's as well as Jason's first time to Chuck E Cheese. They both just stared in amazement at the spectacle!

Kennedy is still not back up to 100% but she continues to get better. The inhalers have provided her some relief and she can sleep through the night again. We are still battling the never ending supply of drainage though. We just can't figure out how someone so small could produce so much snot!
