In like a lion out like a lamb



Facetime with Milo
As many of you know, last week we took Boden to urgent care when his cough/cold turned into a low grade fever. I just had a feeling in the back of my mind, that it could be pneumonia. Unfortunately, I was right. Uggg. Because of his asthma and low oxygen levels they admitted him to the hospital. After a few days he was finally sent home and is now on oxygen when he sleeps at night.

But, being the exciting family that we are - Milo decided he wanted to be just like his big brother. Not sure why our kids wait until Saturday night to get sick, but on Sunday and during a huge snow storm we took Milo to Boulder Foothills hospital for a checkup as he was coughing and acting very uncomfortable. Sure enough, he too had low oxygen levels and tested postive for RSV. The doctor decided to admit him to ensure we can keep him suctioned and well hydrated and oxygenated, as Milo is still such a little newborn baby. He is doing great... but Oh, what a crazy few weeks it has been!

I'll try to update the blog with birthdays and holidays that have past while we're here. Hopefully only for another day. The hard part is that because of flu season this year, no visitors. Which means essentially that Steve and I each have a kid and don't get to see each other (Love you Steve... wherever it is that you are)!
