"Look at what a BIG girl I am!"Lehna went back to the doctor yesterday to check her progress from the breathing treatments. The doctor said she sounds worlds better she said that her nasal congestion is almost completely gone, but she is still concerned because she does still sound very raddley and raspy. So she wants us to see a specialist in Indianapolis September 7th. She said that from what she can hear she thinks that she has childhood asthma. The doctor feels that with her developing this at her age chances are she will probably grow out of it but she wants us to see the specialist. She also prescribed Lehna with an additional steroid for her breathing treatments that she needs. She said that steroid is a very very low dose and it’s basically for maintenance purposes and she said by Friday we should be able to cut down to just two treatments a day, which is good, but we need to continue until she sees the specialist. Well I was kind of disappointed that she still needs the treatments but I think it’s better to be safe then sorry. Lehna really does well with them she tries to grab the nasal of the inhaler and tries to put it in her mouth, she isn’t fussy or anything so that helps. It’s quite amazing the difference Lehna has been the last few days. She seems so much fuller of energy and she is talking soooooo much more. I really feel she couldn’t breathe so she didn’t have very much energy. She seems happier (if that’s possible) as well she is also talking sooooo much more and before she would barely babble, so this is all very positive. Below is a picture of her babbling
"Ahhhhhh grrraaaah"So that was the verdict from the doctor. But overall she is a very happy baby and so hopefully she’ll continue to improve. On Saturday Tait and I went to a cook out at the Roy’s it was a lot of fun and we got to see Madison Michelle. Lehna and Madison will both be attending daycare together and they will be in the same room. I know it will be awhile before she will attend but it will be exciting to have both Madison and Lehna in the same class. Chris has wanted a baby girl for sooooo long and now she has her baby girl. Madison is very very little she was 4 lbs 12 oz when she left the hospital she was born 5 lbs 4 oz. But she’s like a little doll she’s so little. You may notice the little bandage on her cheek when they were removing her via c-section the doctor cut her but they said within a year her scar should not be noticeable. Below is a picture of the baby.
Madison MichelleOn Monday Tait had his 28th Birthday! So Tait and I went to dinner and Nana and Tanna baby sat for us. Helen (aka Nana) was telling us that Landyn had a hold of a chicken nugget and was holding it in front of Lehna well Lehna reached out and grabbed it from Landyn. I can’t believe just how quick Lehna’s reflexes are it’s hard to believe she’s only (almost) 5 months old! Her hand eye coordination is really good she grabs things successfully and puts them directly into her mouth! So we have to be careful what’s in her range of grabbing! Below are pictures of her playing on the floor and grabbing the items and staring at her hands. I maybe starting Lehna’s Piano Lessons sooner then I expected!
"I want this!" Notice she's sitting Up!
She can now sit unassisted for about 30 seconds before falling over!
"Man these hands are just so interesting"Well until next week have a great week!
"What??" This face is a killer!
