Sick Bentley :(
First of all, I do not know what to do to prevent Bentley from catching a cold, I swear she gets one at least once a month. It's so horrible. So of course she has one right now and this has been the worse so far. It started off with the normal runny nose and then probably from wiping her runny nose up into her eye it got it all infected, so now it's all red and swollen and running just as much as her nose, so her little cheeks are all red and chapped from them constantly being wet, and I can't keep up with wiping her nose and eye because she refuses to let me! AHHH! But thats not all...then on Saturday night she started coughing and it sounded like it was in her lungs so Brodee and I decided to take her to the emergency room just in case, so we got there at about 8:30 p.m. and we got in pretty quick and they tested her for strep, RSV, and the flu but thank goodness those all came back negative, so then they decided they wanted to check her pee for infection and sure enough she has a U.T.I., so they gave us an antibiotic to give to her so hopefully that'll do the trick. Poor little girl is so miserable right now and I hate it because I feel so helpless.

Poor baby! It is frustrating,isn't it? Hope she gets well soon and that you don't catch it!
I dont care that you added me, if i knew you had a blog before now, i probley would of added you. I love your little family, there so adorable. It is so sad when they are sick. PoOr Bentley, which i love that name by the way...
you should def go see Twilight, we are going again tonight. It wasnt even that great, but then again it was, just because it's Twilight. Make sense?
Darn-it. That is NOT fun to have a sick baby. I'm glad she didn't have RSV-believe me You are LUCKY. But that isn't fun to have a uti. Poor little girl. Hope she's feeling better.
I am so sorry to hear that she was feelin' so bad-have you tried if you are nursing taking echinacea or if you aren't nursing putting drops of echinacea in her bottle. That sounds old fashioned but it helps their immune systems just like ours and its not medicine. That is a preventative way not a cure, but I know its an herb and I don't feel bad about using it, especially during the winters in Idaho. Luckily we don't have much RSV in this area. Good luck! Oh I love the picture of all of your hands-beautiful!
