Our little girl is growing up fast and her stats are the proof. Ava is now 17lbs -11oz (70%) and 27" long (90%). In the doctor's words, she is perfect...and I'm not making that up! No matter what anyone else says, we think she is perfect too.
After we got home from our appointment Ava came down with a cold... too bad she couldn't have had it while we were there, it would have saved me a phone call. Anyway, a little sniffle has turned into a waterfall of a runny nose and a resulting cough. The poor thing is miserable. She is taking naps every few hours, and last night she slept for 13 hours.
This is how we spent our morning:
propped up on the boppy so she could breath easier and wouldn't get choked on drainage. I spoke with a nurse at our Pediatrician's office and she said we were doing all the right things (humidifier, nose suction, vaseline, etc.) and that they are seeing this cold last about 2 weeks...2 WEEKS! What torture, more for Ava than us. Although I desperately hate it when I have to suction her nose because she screams uncontrollably. Even the cats have started coming over to her and meowing when I do that and she cries. They must feel bad for her.Hopefully Ava will be back to her normal smiling self soon. I have a video to post, but it needs to be edited for time, blogger has a hard time uploading anything longer than 20 seconds. So I'll get on that and try to have it up soon. In the meantime, here are two pictures of our happy girl in "healthy" times.
also as you can see, we joined in with everyone else and changed the look of our blog...what do you think? New year, new look
