Steps!!

Yahoooo!!! Ben took 2 steps twice tonight! He was so thrilled with himself and the applause he received from Addie and me! Unfortunately when Brian got home (late) from work, he wasn't so interested in performing.

I just got off the phone with Addie's pediatrician. She agrees to keep Addie on the antibiotic. She ordered a bunch of bloodwork for her to get done. She also is giving us a prescription for a suppository emergency thing that we are to administer if she has another one that lasts 8 minutes long. Typically they are administered after 5 minutes, but since she came out of the 8 minute one on her own, we should wait 8 minutes. If we ever have to use it, we must call 911.
If Addie still has a 100 degree fever on Wednesday, after I stop giving her the preventative doses of Motrin, then I am supposed to call the doctor and we'll get a chest x-ray done to rule out pneumonia. Although the chance of her having pneumonia on the 19th, then having no fever up until the 27th is almost impossible, according to the doctor.

I'll keep you posted.
