We made a doctor's appointment for Adrianna this morning because she has had a cough for about 2 1/2 weeks now. We took her in a little after it started because it sounded pretty bad, but her doctor just said to watch it and bring her back if she had a fever or it lasted more than 2 weeks, which it has. Quintin said when her doctor heard her cough he wanted to do a chest x-ray to check it out. He didn't call me until after the x-ray because he didn't want me to worry. He took this picture of the technician setting her up in the x-ray machine and seeing her in that makes me so sad! It looks like some sort of medieval torture device, doesn't it? I guess it is the only way to keep them still enough to get a good picture of their chest, but it still makes parents feel helpless.
Her pediatrician said she has a mild case of pneumonia and put her on antibiotics for 10 days. We were a little shocked because other than her cough she has been her normal self- still getting into everything! We have to take her back next week to make sure she is getting better, especially because Thanksgiving is next week and we are also moving so we don't want her to have to see a new doctor who doesn't know her. We will keep you posted.

Although I could tell that Adrianna didn't like this one bit, she still looks so stinkin' cute!
