Claras Progress

So let me talk about our lil girl. She turned 1 on feb 3. Shes had her 1 year which was awesome and really short due to the bagillion we had over the weeks prior. Clara had been battling what we thought was a super sensitive gag reflex. She had been like that as an infant..and when she got a cold it was inevitable with post nasal drip. BARF. So when we went skiing she started vomiting again, but this time, it was bad. After almost EVERY bottle. And she was irritable. We saw the doctor nuerous times. She has fluid in her ear..its not infected bu try using these numbing drops. And there is lots of ear wax in there use these drops to loosen that stuff up.

The crazy thing is that she was still able to gain weight. Finally it was so out of control...school was concerned crazed mom screamed at school...Clara ended up at childrens to check for a kidney infection. That means baby catheter. Poor thing. After that she ate and slept and then barfed all over me in the admitting room. IT was so horrible they gave me scrubs. nice.

Well guess what, our little bug had pneumonia. GAR! THe antibiotics kicked in immediately and what is most amazing about all of this....she started eating solids like bonkers...sleeping better....we all were better.

At Claras 1 year appointment she was 22lbs ( 50-75%) and 32 inches ( 95%) long? wait...32 or 33? 32 i think. Shes a big girl! She doesn't really have any words....or didnt then. Is cruising across all furniture, climbing the stairs....ahh so big and how fast a yer goes!!

Ive been interrupted by an almost 3 yr old that should be in bed..but is not.
