Dodged a Bullet

Harper didn't have a fever at the Dr. this morning but did test positive for RSV:( Thankfully the pediatrician thinks that she has already gotten over the peak of it. She probably got it from her brother and sis and they probably got it at church because we haven't really been many other places lately. It isn't as serious in bigger kiddos and just presents itself with coldlike symptoms. Unfortunatley for an infant it can be really serious. So I guess this is why Dr.'s encourage winter babies to stay home for the first 6 weeks of life! It sure is hard to keep the other kids home though:( We just have to minitor her closely for any breathing problems and/or a fever. It lasts for 5-7 days from the onset of symptoms so by saturday we should be all clear! We sure hope so!

Goodness! Hope it all goes away quickly. BTW I love the pic from awhile ago of Cohen and Emery on the chair together, that your mom took. So sweet!
