Cough Is Back

Friday night Will started coughing again. He had a fever before he went to bed and overnight he started coughing. Since we have had such a history of bronchiolitis I did not want to wait it out, especially since it was a Saturday. I knew the doctor's office opened at 8am and I had to work at 9 am, so I showed up at 8. They do not see walk ins and the doctor wasn't going to be there until 9, so they had Will checked out by the nurse practitioner. She said he just had a bad cold and told us as a precaution to start up with his nebulizer again. All I wanted to hear was that his lungs sounded clear and that he was oxygenating his blood alright and we did not want a trip to the ER. She assured us that everything looked okay and so we took Will back home. He weighed 24 lbs 1.5 oz.

We gave Will applesauce the other night and decided to let him try to feed himself. We put it in one of those bowls with the suction cups and gave him a spoon. He played with the spoon briefly before taking his hand and trying to grab a handful of applesauce to put in his mouth. It was very messy but he seemed to have fun doing it. I think we will make sure to feed him his applesauce for awhile longer until he gets the hang of eating with a spoon.





Last week Will and I went to the children's museum with a few of our friends. I have decided that I am not taking Will back there until he is walking. When it was just Bill, Will, and I that went he was tolerant of being in the stroller. But seeing all his little friends running around he wanted nothing to do with the stroller. He really did not want to butt scoot either, which left me carrying him everywhere as the only acceptable option. And he gets heavy really quickly these days. He seemed like he had a good time.

Where Did He Come From?

What Is In Here?

We also went walking to the local park with a friend and her son. The boys really seemed to like watching all the cars zoom under us on the expressway as we went over the bridge. We even got a trucker to honk his horn each time we went over the bridge. We remembered to take some bread to feed the geese, but they had no interest in eating it. We all seemed to have a good time and the weather was gorgeous.
