we're back! and holiday party pics

We are finally back home after spending a great 10 days in NoVa with the family. We had a great time and there are tons of pics to share but it's going to take a little time to sort through all of them. Emilia of course made out like a bandit and got tons of gifts - a wagon, some pieces of furniture, and a huge kitchen set just to name a few. We had a great stay at Nana and Richard's but of course we're glad to be home especially since Emilia is very sick now. She's had a cough pretty much since we arrived in NoVa and today on our way back in to town we swung by Dr. Walker's office because she was really wheezing quite a bit and just hadn't kicked this cough. They took her temperature, listened to her lungs, and even checked her oxygen levels. She was running a temp of 101.8 when we arrived and her O2 level was 93. Dr. Walker thinks she has bronchitis which may be on its way to becoming pneumonia. We won't know for sure until she has a chest x-ray done on Friday. In the meantime she's on a steroid to help open up her lungs and an antibiotic for the bronchitis, plus her singulair. Poor boo slept almost the entire drive down here and went to bed at 7 tonight.
In cheerier news the first pics I have to post are from Emilia's class holiday party on 12.19.08. They decorated and ate some cookies and that was it. We got wonderful Christmas presents from our babes - will have to take a pic of those - including an ornament, some "reindeer food" and a hand and foot painted trivet. As you can see from the pics someone was far more interested in playing with their chair and eating their cookie than socializing with the other kids.
