Pneumonia

Well, poor Isla has been thrown another zinger. We've been in and out of the hospital again this week... They seem to have finally found what is going on, though. She has had a fever for the last 5 days... for 72 hours of that it was above 102 (peaking at 104.5). Throat tests, blood tests, chest xrays... and finally a discovery. Pneumonia. She just took her last dose of antibiotics, but had a fever again this morning. She feels a bit better after Motrin, but we hate giving her that stuff all the time. She hasn't been eating too well, but she will drink her bottle. So that is good.

One day office lady, next day teacher!

I am proud to say that I am now a SAHM! Thursday, March 17 was my last day "on the job" at Bergquist.

Isla and I are already having a great time learning about all the things around the house, singing and dancing to our favorite tunes, and spending quality time together! She is pulling herself up on everything and is doing so quite strongly! She enjoys testing her limits by going after the doggy food as often as possible. ;-)

On Thursday after saying goodbye to my coworkers, Isla and I spent some time at PetSmart learning about the animals that can live in the home! She really enjoyed the fish, birdies, and the doggies at daycamp!

We are very excited for this spring and summer to learn about flowers and veggies as we start our garden!

Uncle Braden came to visit this weekend. We had a blast watching SuperWhy - Isla's favorite PBS show! She hears the music and starts giggling and clapping. So cute!

Daddy was home from Thurs through Sunday. It was great to spend some time with him after he was gone for three weeks for work! 



She now has four teeth coming through! They all just started coming in... within a month!

Poor baby has been struggling with ear infections and other crud for the last few weeks, too. :-( Had a fever this afternoon, but she cooled down shortly. We're going in tomorrow to the doc again.

Along with staying home with Isla, I am in a band! Our first performance is May 7 at an old coworkers benefit that I am also organizing. We are PUMPED and almost ready to go! :-)

I'm also super excited for Kelly and Brian's wedding in June! Kelly has requested my assistance with some things and I am happy to help! I do have a little bit of spare time, after all! ;-)
