Stay Warm Sunday

Today's blog entry is brought to you by Lisa (aka mommy). Gracie had a fairly good night last night. She did get up at 12:45 a.m. and again at 3:30 a.m. for a bottle, but then slept until a little after 6:00 a.m. I think it was the smell of daddy's bagel toasting that really woke her up. She just couldn't let daddy eat alone.

Gracie's tummy was acting up today and she didn't really want to do much other than be held most of the day. She took a 45 minute nap this morning and then a 3 hour nap this afternoon. She's been very tired lately and her afternoon naps seem so peaceful, so I think she is healing from the pneumonia and that is a good restful time for her. I snuck in at the end of her nap and took a snooze with her.

This afternoon I gave her wagon rides in the basement which she thoroughly enjoyed. We also sang alot today...her favorites are "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "The Wheels on the Bus". They never fail to produce a smile.

We will start to decrease the Prednisolone a little bit this week. We'll give her a full dose one day and the next it will be decreased, then a full dose the next day, etc. She also will finish her antibiotic from the pneumonia on Wednesday. I think taking the two antibiotics at once cause her tummy to feel pretty crummy at times.

Have a great week and stay safe and warm.

Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
