So So Sad


My little sweet pea is sick. She has been fighting this cold for a very long time and as the other two kids have gotten over it she just never has. We have had weeks of sleepless nights and horrible coughing and wheezing. So yesterday off we went, back to see the Doctor. My little Addy Joy has what the Doctor wrote down as Bronchitis. But Bronchitis that is triggered by RSV. AND of course an ear infection. So the home health guy came yesterday bearing a wonderful gift (a nebulizer). That my little one HATES! Of course the pictures are at the very beginning when she didn't realize just yet that this was going to become an ongoing thing, one that lasted for awhile each time. So needless to say every 2-4 hours a day has become a battle between the two of us. Today when she realized that she was unable to move her arms due to my kung foo type grip she tried head butting the thing away from her and biting it. She is a very strong willed little thing. Don't let her size fool you, she is very mighty! Then this afternoon after realizing that the head butting was not working to her satisfaction she got a nice hold on my arm with her teeth. Due to the awkward position we were in after several minutes of struggling already and not wanting to spill the medicine, the only way to get her to release my arm from her pit bull latch was to head butt her myself. Poor baby, I know, but let her sink her teeth in your arm and tell me what you would do those little teeth are sharp! But never fear, I will win this battle of ours...oh yes I will win!

I am so sorry you are sick and don't like the medicine. But I am glad you have a mind of your own!!!!

So sorry to hear that you are sick, Addy! Ava has an ear infection too, but her medicine is yummy and doesn't come with a mask. I hope you feel better soon.

Oh, and I would keep an eye out for your mom. If the headbutting doesn't work, she might bite. :)
