Update

Grandpa Mike and Grandma Lisa came to visit today to celebrate Nick's birthday. Emmie was very glad to see them, though she was tired when I took the pictures, so she's quite subdued!

On another note, she had her follow-up appt. on Friday to be sure her UTI was cleared up. Her pediatrician wants to do an ultrasound Dec. 11 to verify that there aren't any problems with her bladder or kidneys that would've caused the infection. We also saw an Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist about her repeated ear infections. He said her ears didn't look too bad, but when they did the "tympanic test" to see how her eardrum vibrated, it didn't vibrate at all. There is apparently a lot of fluid behind her eardrum causing pressure. She is scheduled for tubes on Dec. 22.
