Grace races down the driveway.
Giving her sister a squeeze of support -- we were on our way to see a doctor about Suki's worsening cough. She's had a wicked cold this week but her lungs have been getting pretty bad.
She needed plenty of squeezes, because lord knows Suki hates the doctor's office.
Kate is happy in her car seat -- I am going to have a time when she outgrows it and that time is not long off.-------------------------------------------------------
As I'd suspected, Suki needs to be back on her albuterol treatments through the weekend. Kate was being particularly needy when we came home (she's a little sick too and had an interrupted nap) and so I wound up nursing her and giving Suki her treatment at the same time. It was quite a juggle but thankfully Suki was very easy going about the mask and the noise and the puffing medicine this time. Also easy going about Kate grabbing Suki's face and the mask the whole time. I'm glad that this will be the only time I have to try to do it all on my own, David will around for the rest of the treatments and an extra pair of hands will definitely make for a less comically complicated situation.

A tidbit on Suki for the curious: at 22 months she is 35 pounds, and that is at greater than the 97th percentile for weight; she is 35 inches, and that is at the 90th percentile for height. No wonder people ask if she and Grace are twins.
Do it yourself nebulizing.
