If Only For A Short Time...: Busy

It has been awhile since I have updated and this boy has been keeping us busy! When I posted last we had gone to Children's to have his tubes put in and they decided to reschedule. Since then, we have been to the doctor more times than I count and he has been sick for what seems like forever. We rescheduled for February 2 and were so excited to finally have the procedure so he could feel better. When we were arrived they were very hesitant to do the procedure. He had a nasty cough and sounded a like he was wheezing. Our boy never likes to do things the easy way and we ended up with 3 different anesthesiologists in the room to evaluate him before proceeding with the procedure. We were so torn because we wanted him to have the procedure and feel better but didn't want anything to happen to him. The main anesthesiologist was confident that it would go smoothly since it was a quick procedure and would be taking extra precautions just in case. He finally got his tubes! We thought that would take care of him but we were wrong! We have been back at the doctor for more wheezing and coughing. We had a chest x-ray and it came back normal which was a big relief. He is taking some yucky medicines and doing albuterol breathing treatments as well as inhaled steroids. He seems to be doing much better and we are praying he stays well!

Our sweet boy is growing and changing like crazy. He is as rotten as they come and we would not have it any other way. He is into everything, tests us to see what he can get away with, talks and jabbers, loves to play peek-a-boo, loves to read books, and enjoys snuggling.

We have been so blessed to be home with him this week due to weather. We have all gotten a little spoiled spending so much time together. A lot of people complain about the snow but we have thoroughly enjoyed having a reason to stay home in our pjs and just spend time together. It is so much fun to watch him explore and learn new things. He is very curious and we can see his little mind constantly work. He will sit and look at books for a very long time and point to pictures and say "dat" over and over. We love having him walk to us and hand us a book then smile as we read.

Our worker comes tomorrow and he hasn't had any new information the past few times I have talked to him. I keep telling myself no news is good news but we are ready to find out what is going to happen next.

I will try to do a better job of updating more frequently! Keep praying!
