Rainy Day Fun

It poured rain all day today, but that didn't keep us from having fun. Before heading to our church's fundraiser, the East Village Fair, Layla decided to hang out under her exersaucer. It was fun until she realized she didn't know how to get out.

We headed over to the soggy Follen grounds around 9:30 to man the prize table in the children's games area. Layla was a big help hanging out in her backpack, though she eventually tired of it and demanded to be held.

Soccer Star

We're starting her young. However, she doesn't quite understand the concept of no hands. Maybe she's training to be a goalie.

Layla has Graduated.....

from bronchiolitis to croup!

We took her in today because she had all of the symptoms she'd had other times, with the addition of a slight fever and more high pitched wheezing. Predisolone, it is! At least we can give that by mouth and not by the nebulizer. We tried to give her Albuterol via the neb yesterday and let's just say the neb and being 10 months old don't mix too well!

We're hoping she's back to her healthy self by the end of the week.

Layla Learns to Clap

She's actually been working on this for weeks but in the last day or two she seems to really have gotten the hang of it.

Double Digits

Layla celebrated her 10 month bday by getting the sniffles AND her first flu shot. If all goes as planned, between the regular flu shot and the H1N1, Layla only has 3 more injections to go! If they each put her into the crabby mood that she was in this afternoon, I'm in trouble! Here's hoping she was just annoyed at the all the snot that was covering her face, hands, shirt, and me.

Groovin'

(Sorry, again, for the sideways video!)

Pretty in Purple

Layla was all decked out in purple today, down to her vest (a consignment shop find....$5!) and her corduroy shoes. She's ready for fall in her nice warmer clothes.
