Baby Shower

Maddi has had a pretty rough month as far as health goes. After having pneumonia, we took her to the ER at 2:00 AM last Monday morning because she was having difficulty breathing we thought which later we found out to be croup. Apparently, that is going around here. When we went to the pediatrician Tuesday, she said she had given 3 kids shots for the same thing that day. Anyway, we found very quickly that croup is awful!!! She recovered pretty quickly with her antibiotics and steroids. She has been pretty healthy for the last week so let's all pray she stays that way. Sunday afternoon we went to a very entertaining baby shower for some friends of ours. As you will see below, even the guys got involved.
Hanging with Mommy while she is getting ready to go to the baby shower Mommy kept trying to get me to smile but I preferred my serious look I thought this duck was pretty cool and that it should be my lounge chair for the shower.
Go, Daddy, Go! The men had a race to see who could finish drinking their beer through a bottle (with a newborn nipple) the fastest. Daddy came in second!

Weddings & Family Gatherings

Maddi is feeling much much better. As most of you know, we found out Thursday that she has pneumonia. After nose and throat swabs, a catheter, chest x-ray, and blood work, that's the diagnosis we got. Needless to say, Thursday was a very traumatic day. Anyway, she is feeling better, still gets tired pretty quickly, but hasn't had a fever since Friday. Yay!!! We attended a friend's wedding Saturday night and then had lunch in Hartville on Sunday.
