Sick, Sick babies :(

Dominic and Tasia have both had a little bit of a cough for the last week or so. It wasn't too bad, and wasn't accompanied by any other symptoms so Anthony and I thought it might just be due to allergies. The last day or so it has gotten worse. Then last night both of them coughed to the point of puking, and I decided it was time to get them in and it's a good thing I did! They both have upper respiratory infections, and my poor little Tasia has pnuemonia in her right lung :( The dr said she sounded horrible and wanted to get a jump start on getting her better, so they did an antibiotic shot right there and a breathing treatment. He listened to her again, and confirmed the pnuemonia. I was sent home with a nebulizer to do breathing treatments on both of them every 4 hours. Tasia had her 2nd one an hour ago. Dom will have his 2nd one in an hour, so I am doing breathing treatments every 2 hours between the 2 of them. Plus they were both sent home with antibiotics and steriods. I walked out of Walmart with a big bag full of prescriptions. Tasia has to go back into the after hours clinic tomorrow, so they can listen to her and see if she's doing any better. Then they both have to go in next Friday to be rechecked. Hope all of you have a better weekend then we'll be having lol Also Anthony is going to the dr at 6 tonight, because he has never gotten over his supposed sinus infection and we are concerned his might be pnuemonia too. Not to mention the fact that he needs to have his ribs checked, because he thinks he cracked one from coughing too hard. Here are pics of my sick little kiddos doing their breathing treatments.....


Tasia has medicine all over her, because she decided she didn't like the taste and spit out all over herself and the floor


They only thing they cared was that they got cute dinosaur masks instead of plain ones, but they were both sad that the nebulizer they gave us is just plain black and not a train one like they had at the dr's office.

Ah, the Nebulizer. At least your kids sit still for theirs- Cade is having a hard time being so confined!

Hope everyone feels better.
