AAAHHHH!

So I am trying to not have a meltdown here (Mari here). This past Sunday Lilly was not feeling right. By Tuesday she was an utter mess, was wheezing like a mad man, couldn't eat and couldn't sleep. So luckily the pediatrician's office opened up for the afternoon (in all this snow) and we got her looked at. She has a respiratory tract infection and was put on a nebulizer. She actually enjoys the nebulizer most of the time, it really makes her feel better.

How freaking cute is this - her holding it on her own!



So she slept much better for the one night. Then last night she was up EVERY hour! So between Sunday night and today, we only had one solid 5 hour stretch of sleep, quite agonizing! Luckily being snowed in has been convenient because school was canceled and I didn't work Monday or Tuesday so we could relax at home.

Today my mom took her to her recheck appointment. Well the reason for the horrible sleeping last night is that she now has an ear infection. So she was put on antibiotics. Whatever, kids get ear infections. BUT now this means her surgery that was scheduled for this Wednesday is cancelled! We were so ready to be done with it all. So now we have to wait longer. I don't know when the new date for surgery will be but hopefully soon.

We decided, and also our doctor recommended, that she stay out of daycare until after the surgery. So that means I will be out of work until then!

On a cool note, her physical therapy despite all this has been pretty good. She met with Lisa today and did pretty darn good. Last night while we were eating dinner she rolled from her back to her stomach! She was on her stomach only a second and quickly realized she didn't want to stay there! But it counts! She rolls to her side all the time now, she's a machine :) Now all we gotta work on is the sitting up and we are set.
