Same Song... Different Verse....

So, that "stuffiness" that I mentioned in the last post progressed to an excessive cough by Tuesday and then upgraded to a wheeze by Wednesday... and we were back in Dr. John's office this morning (for the third time in a week), enjoying the effects of an albuterol high :)
Why do my kids wheeze???? Anyway, I will refrain from listing all of the things that Brody is NOT doing (as to not jinx us), and simply say that he is otherwise feeling fine. We'll just be hanging out with Mr. Panda Nebulizer every 4-6 hours for the next few days. He's going to need a vacation after the way he's been worked lately :)

Some people tell me that Brody looks exactly like Brax, while others seem to think the he's got a look of his own. At different times, I have agreed with both perspectives. However, when I see pictures like this, I have to say, they do look an awful lot alike. Brody is on the left and Brax (at around 4 1/2 months) on the right.
Brody is very much into the exersaucer right now. He loves to "stand," and is, therefore, outgrowing his love for the swing, bouncy seat, etc. The exersaucer allows him to be upright and play with toys while working those ever-important quads. He will stay in this thing for up to 30 minutes at a time. Brax had too much attention-deficit to ever do that :)
Ooh, I love that smile. He has such a sweet personality!
Brax has not allowed me to take any pictures of him this week, so you'll have to do without a Brax fix. Maybe he'll be in a more photo-friendly mood next week. He's been cracking me up with the things that come out of his mouth lately. I'm really going to have to start watching what I say! Please pray that we're all feeling well soon... Sick babies are the pits!

That last picture of Brody is precious! We are praying that you ALL get & stay healthy, and that the albuterol highs will soon be a thing of the past. Hang in there!

I know it is not very fun at your house right now, but we'll be praying that sickness ends soon
