Poor Cassidy has been sick this week. She started out with a cold and then developed a nasty cough. I took her to the walk in clinic on Friday and they sent us over to the ER to get her cough checked out. Luckily she just had a respiratory infection and not RSV or anything more serious. She was wheezing pretty bad so they gave her some steroids and advised us to do breathing treatments every 4 hours for the next few days. She wore the mask pretty good the first couple times but then decided she didn't like it so much. We've seen a huge improvement in her cough and breathing with the treatments though. Even sick she was still such a happy girl and a great sleeper. She just grinned at the nurses in the ER, even the lab tech who came to draw her blood, until they actually poked her, then she screamed. She weighed in at 11 pounds 5 oz. so she has definitely grown, although she is still very petite. She has been drooling a ton lately but we aren't sure if she's starting to teeth or just a result of being sick.
I had to include this picture - I love babies sleeping with their little arms up over their heads!

Haha, she is so big! Abbey loves her dinosaur mask! They should get together and have a "smoke" together!
Poor Cass! Tommy can get in on the "smoking" group, he has that respiratory junk now too. Hope Cass feels better, she is SO cute!!
We used to just have to hold the mouth thing in front of your faces and hope you got some of the medication when you breathed in! She is totally a Cox baby sleeping like that, looks just like Carter when he is asleep!
Awww...poor Cassidy. I hate that she has been so sick, but I am glad that she is getting better and that it wasn't anything worse. She is such a little cutie!
