Updates: Cakes and Nebulizers

Well, I haven't posted in a while because it is has been very exhausting around here. Sydney has had a lot of downs lately. Right as we started giving her foods, she seemed to be so cranky and it also appeared that she was teething. Her scalp became a lot drier as well. So, we stopped the new foods for a while and worked on her teething pain and dry scalp. Once that started to get better, she developed a cold and it has just gotten worse. She coughs and hacks all day and is so congested. It is very difficult for all of us to sleep at night. You feel so sorry for her because she can barely cry. We took her to the doctor on Saturday and they had us rent a nebulizer for 3 months with albuterol treatments to give to her every 6 hours. She absolutely hates it.We've had a couple of cakes lately. I had my birthday on Feb. 18th and Brian made me this lucious yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Then the following week was Mardi Gras. I really miss this holiday since moving from Louisiana, the king cakes, the parades- my family would get a spot along the parade's route to rent all day and we would play games until the parade came by. Mardi Gras in northern Louisiana is a family event and very good, clean fun. I thought I decorated this cake well.We appreciate all the love, care and support we have received from our family and friends and feel that now is especially the time to trust Jesus whole-heartedly.

And this is just a little performance by Brian and Sydney.
