Staying in and Adapting

Sophie Clare has been a bit under the weather to say the least! It all started Sunday night......seem to be a cold, just tons of drainage (I know, TMI)  We were up 3 times in the night and by morning she was running a low temp. we got ready and headed to the dr.  She was coughing so bad by the time we got there. It was pitiful. We were in the waiting room and they called up back early because she was coughing so bad.  When the dr came in she had began wheezing.  They check her for strep (thankfully not). They did breathing treatments in the office for the wheezing and said it was bronchitis.  The dr sent us home with 4 prescription and a breathing machine.  Hopefully we are on the road to recovery!

In the mean time, we have been adjusting to staying inside and not playing outside.   We have been drawing with chalk on our floors. It comes right up and really not all that messy!
This pic was taken with my phone.

She is being such a big girl about the breathing machine. We first  tried it while watching tv but she does not do that for long. So we carried it to her room and we play while she does it. We are able to color, play with blocks, puzzles and much more.  It is much better than trying to hold her still.

This is on Monday and and she looks pitiful in this pic.
She is doing much much better now!

This is today........see much better!!


She is still coughing a bit and is very horse.
 A little better each day.......
We did a pumpkin craft today.


She really enjoy sitting and drawing in the bath tub today. I had some bathtub paint that I had been saving for a rainy day. So she did that plus her bathtub crayons.

I will add that is much cooler today and we are loving it!!
Have a great rest of the week!!

I'm so sorry that Sophie Clare is feeling poorly! Hopefully she will be feeling better soon so you can enjoy the cooler weather. We were inside because of rainy weather today!

Her pumpkin craft is so cute! You had such good inside activities. I have asthma and I know those breathing treatments are no fun. It was great that you came up with ways to make it more fun.
