So Darn Sick!

Baby Kong (as Papa has nicknamed him) has been kicked around by the latest virus- RSV which then settled into his lungs and he now has bronchiolitis.  Long word for such a little guy!  We were sent home with a nebulizer and he sucks in some altered, vaporized cocktail that is supposed to bring him back to his normal self.  He's beat the fever and is just dealing now with a nasty sounding cough that peaks out at about 5am.

However, he's still showing us his smile and is growing a ton. He was 13 lbs 8oz when we brought him in at 6 weeks, and is now officially wearing the 6-9 month PJs due to his long chicken legs he inherited from Papa (not Daddy though!)

Poor little guy. Anna had RSV when she was about 8 months. It's awful to hear them hack and wheeze like that. Hang in there gang. I'm sure he'll be good as new in no time:)
