Time Sure Flies

Can you believe Aubree is now 5 months old? Where did all the time go? She is changing with every minute. She has gotten very curious with her hands and everything goes straight to her mouth. She has to taste everything. We have started feeding her rice cereal with a spoon. Boy is that a mess!! She usually likes to eat from a spoon, except lately she hasn't had as much of an appetite. On Friday she ran a lil temp.(100.9) and then Friday night she was really fussy and acted as something was hurting her. On Sat. morning when we woke up she was burning up so I took her to see her pediatrician. They did a CBC test and her WBC count was 22,000. The normal range for an infant is 10,000-16,000. So then they drew blood and took a urine sample by catheter. The poor baby already felt bad and then was poked and pricked all over. She also got a shot of a really strong antibiotic to start treating the infection. We also went to the hospital and got a stat chest x-ray, which turned out to be normal. We are still waiting, they are suppose to call us today with the results from her lab work. I really would like to know what it was bothering her. But atleast she is feeling better now. Her WBC count was 10,000 yesterday and she weighed a whooping 14.86lbs. She is really growing fast. She loves to laugh and we love to hear her precious laughter. She also really enjoys looking at books and magazines. I try to read to her daily and she seems to enjoy it. Thanks for checking on us...We love u!
