Still Sick

So I took Andrew back to the Dr.'s today. I didn't like the way he was breathing. This new Dr agreed that he was fighting to breath and said to give him the inhaler 2 x's every hour for 4 hours. She also informed me that he has a mild ear infection in his right ear and proceeded to get a prescription for antibiotics. Oh I hope that his tummy is some what better that he can handle them this time. He is sleeping now and I am enjoying the cuddle time with him I just hope he gets better soon.

 

My baby is sick.....

Thanks to beautiful Miss. Audrey, Andrew is now sick. Audrey brought home croup last week and went to the ER because she was having trouble breathing. I got her all better (somewhat) and now Andrew is sick. He has had a fever on and off for three days now with a really runny nose and a cough. I am kind of enjoying it because he want to cuddle with me when he doesn't feel good. On a good day I have to fight him for a hug. I hope he gets better soon......

Happy Birthday Andrew

Today my baby turned two. My birthday wish for you dear Andrew is to continue to be strong. We all love you very much and we will not stop helping you to be the best you can be. You are my inspiration. You have shown me how patient and understanding I can be. You are my miracle and I love you with all my heart.  

Urology

Andrew had his one year follow up appointment with the Urology clinic the other day. This was to follow up on the kidney reflux from birth. The kidney had healed it's self by his first birthday and at that time his ureters were still enlarged. So he had a ultra sound and every thing was with in normal range. We talked with the doctor and we are going to do yearly ultrasounds and visits. They think one more all clear next year and we will be done with Urology. So besides the fact we had to wait two hours for hte doctor I guess it was worth the wait to hear everything is good.

Happy New Year.

I hope every one had a Happy New Year!! We are excited for all the things to come here in our house. Andrew will be turning 2, Audrey will be 4 and Owen is approaching 7. Yikes! We are looking forward to Owen and Audrey starting T-Ball in March and Andrew to continue with all of his therapies. We have officially be in therapy for a year now.

E.R. Visit

So Andrew and I had an eventful evening last night. we went with grandma to Wal-Mart to get my cards printed off and when we got home she left and two seconds later Andrew took off to look out the front window and turn the lights on. Well that didn't go according to his plan. He tripped and split his eyebrow open. So travis calls my mom back and she drives us to the E.R. He stayed behind to get the other kids ready for bed. Well one and a half hours and one internal and three external stitches later we are home. He did really good. Here are a couple pictures from my cell phone while we were there.

Here is the "damage"

Waiting for it to numb up.

And the stitches.

He goes Monday the 22nd to get them out.
