Emilia has been battling a bug for the past week. Today I took her to go see Dr. Walker who diagnosed her as having lobal pneumonia (lobal meaning it’s contained to just one lobe of one lung – bottom right). Frankly, I’m not super surprised. As a kid who’s battled every RSV, bronchitis, and bronchial infection pretty much since birth and has asthma to boot, it really was just a matter of time. Dr. Walker had nurse Tara give Emilia a shot of fast-acting antibiotic and we are to return tomorrow morning to get a confirmation of the diagnosis and a possible chest x-ray to boot. Whew. When it rains it pours I tell ya!
thankfully the weather was finally nice today so we were able to get outside and get some fresh air which never hurt anyone. it also gave us an opportunity to practice some biking skills.
instead of really ‘riding’ her trike emi walks it – seems super awkward to me. makes me think we should go for a scooter.
also worked on our bubble blowing skills taught by the wonderful Ms. Jean at the Y (also credited with teaching Emilia how to blow her nose into a kleenex).
told you she was obsessed with the gnomos – wearing her ball cap and my sunglasses.
my sick, pensive baby.
So we’ll be laying low this weekend, but I promise to continue snapping away!

2 weeks in, and you're doing great! So sorry to hear that Emi has pneumonia - that is really no fun, but glad to see that you were able to play outside! BTW, love the horsie rides!!
Sorry about Emi being under the weather. She still looks adorable!
dude - that last photo is gorgeous. I love the gnome shots - very fun. Are your gnomes friends with the elf on the shelf?
