Even More Follow-up.... and Raspberries!
Sorry for the lack of updates this week.... Blogger was unavailable every time I tried :(
We were back at CHEO again this week, this time to have a follow-up appointment with the Respirologist. He examined Emma, listened to her lungs, put her on a pulse oxymeter (she was satting 100%, yay!!) and pronounced her "just fine." :) Even though she's a bit congested and has been coughing for a few weeks now, he thinks she "just has a cold." While that might not be big news for another baby, it is Very Big News for Emma, because, for the very first time, a simple cold has NOT progressed to hospitalization and serious respiratory distress! Hopefully this means that as she is now bigger, her lungs are getting better , and she will be able to fight off these common bugs.
Emma's other accomplishment this week has been learning to blow raspberries :) She loves nothing better than to purse her lips, stick out her tongue, and give a big, slobbery "ppfflllttt" (preferably while her mouth is full of cereal or strained carrots)....
Nothing says you 're a Mom like getting sprayed with pureed veggies :)
...and here is Miss Emma trying to see around Mom to get a better view of her Baby Einstein DVD :)
