Last week I didn't post captions as we were a busy house dealing with two sick boys. Burke had a nasty cough so we headed to the Dr. Friday am. We found out that Pedialyte, a humidifier and some saline nasal spray were all we could do to help Burke's cough. He was practically purring with all the gunk in his throat. His oxygen was good and lungs were clear, but we stayed home to rest up and avoid passing it around at daycare. (Even though that is where he got it from.) We both enjoyed some naps together.
Dan is dealing with a very sore throat, but according to two doctors it is not strep.
Burke likes to be part of the action so we set his high chair up this week. He enjoys being part of the dinner conversation and will add a gurgle, "duh" or "uhhhhhh" sound to make sure we know he is still there. He is still exclusively on breast milk, but we are starting to think that formula is next. In just a little over a month he will be starting rice cereal.
He is growing so quickly. A week and a half after his four month appointment he had gained one whole pound. He weighs 15 lbs. 7 oz. I now have him in 6-9 month clothing already!
After dinner, Dan and Burke play airplane. Dan recreates the air traffic controller communications to give Burke the true effect. Burke squeals and offers a gummy smile for Dan's creative efforts.
A successful landing.
Listening carefully to his Daddy's flight instructions.
Thursday was beautiful (73 degrees) so we went for an evening stroll before dinner. He now holds onto the side of his car seat like its a roller coaster. Safety first.
