Happenings...

Last Saturday Christian was saying he wished it would just be cold and rainy for a few days so it would actually feel more like fall. The next day it rained! It didn't last long and it wasn't much but it was nice anyway. Eliana was really excited to go out in it and had to put on her rain boots that she loves and I think are super cute but that Christian hates. Last Monday we took Eliana to an apt. in Tuscon and went to the Zoo. It was lots of fun and really nice b/c our Phoenix zoo pass works there and it's a nice small zoo where you can get close to the animals. It was perfect for Eliana. The apt. was with a pulmonologist and we found out that Eliana has asthma which explains her episodes of pneumonia and long lasting coughs when she gets sick. Thank goodness it is mostly just induced by viruses and exercise. She only has to use medicine when she's sick. Of course she got sick this week and it went straight to her chest but the inhalers have helped her not to get an infection! Yay!




Poor Julia wasn't feeling well when we were in Tuscon. She was okay with hanging out in the stroller for a bit though. It was a bit chilly on Monday...in the mid 60's as you can see we had her bundled up. She was not feeling well for about a week... she had a constant fever for about 3 days and I thought she might have an ear infection and be teething b/c she was SO grumpy and sad. It turned out to be just teething and a virus that followed. Her two top teeth came in. So between her and Eliana being sick we haven't gotten much sleep lately. She is finally doing better though and we are so happy! She is generally such a happy girl that when she isn't, we know something is up.
