5 Kid Life












Aria is almost a month old and doing great. She is sleeping better at night and I'm definitely feeling the benefits of longer stretches of sleep. Her sisters are enjoying being able to actually hold and touch her now. The day after we came home from the hospital Trista and Ava came down with the flu and it lasted forever. Trista ended up with pneumonia and Ava ended up with an ear infection. They both ended up on antibiotics twice a day and breathing treatments 3 times a day. Needless to say, my days were consumed 100% by breathing treatments and nursing with an occasional nap. A week later Bella came down with the flu. Her case wasn't as bad as the others. Amazingly enough, J.T., Kassy, little Aria, and I were spared. (Knock on wood!) I've been such a Nazi mom worrying about germs, and it's a relief not to have to worry so much at home.
The picture above of Ava was taken during one of her many breathing treatments.
