I HATE YOU

new hair growth GRAY HAIR!!! Yeah yeah I know HATE is a very strong word, but I hate this gray hair that seems to taking over my head. Every time that I look in the mirror it seems to get worse! And who has time to color their hair. I surly don't. Well I have not taken the time to. There has been so much going on around the house with remodeling the kitchen and getting the new washer and dryer in that there is no time.... I will make time though. MAYBE the next weekend that I have off from work.......

Holding my boy a little longer tonight

There has been a many tear that has been shed while reading blogs about parents losing little ones and angel babies. It makes me cry to read or even think about the loss of a precious innocent little person that God created but also it brings comfort to know that that little one is in heaven and there in no more suffering or hurt. But along with that baby not hurting any more comes the hurt of the parents and families that loved so much.

Babies being taken to HEAVEN hit home with me last night. There is a couple that I went to school with that lost their 5 week old baby boy yesterday. My heart has been so heavy since finding this out. They are high school sweet hearts, prom king and queen, the couple that everyone looked up to wishing that one day they would have the same kind of love and relationship that these two people had. I do not know the reasons behind the passing of their precious little boy, but I have not been able to shake what is going on in these families lives. I pray for them to find strength in the Lord that one day they will be able to see their little boy again. I pray that this life changing event does not change their faith in GOD.

Tonight I will hold my little boy a little tighter, longer. Look into his eyes and tell him that Daddy and Mommy love him so very much and that if there were to be anything ever to happen to him, that he will see us again one day and that he will be able to set in the lap of his heavenly father! I truly never want to think of something happening to my little boy but there is nothing that says this life here on earth is forever.

There is a lot of hurting hearts tonight for this family and I ask that you could pray for them too!

GOD BLESS

Call the oncall Pediatrician ( Kinda LONG)

You would think that I would have learned my lesson when I had to take King Henry to the hospital in the middle of the night for a high temp when he was less than 3 months old, NOPE I sure didn't! The next time( I hope there is not one) I am going to DEMAND that they call the oncall Pediatrician!!

I am soooo over the ER doctors! The king had gotten over his cold that he had gotten while we were on vacation with out the help of the medicine that his regular doc has given to him. I gave it to him a few times and all it seemed to do was make his running nose, cough and all worse. WHY in the world am I going to give him something that is going to make it worse. so anyways it stated to come back like a week later so I called his doctors office and spoke with the nurse, I told her that I had stopped giving him the stuff that was making it worse and just gave me over the counter cough meds. She told me try the medicine that that docs gave us and to keep taking it cause some crap about it gets worse before it gets better. ok WHATEVER ...So when I got home from work I gave him the meds the doc had given up and in about 5 mins he was coughing so bad that he threw up TWICE! I looked at the hubs and said there is something wrong and rushed off the the ER.

This crazy kid of mine SMILES at EVERYONE!! eats a bottle while we are there and manages to only cough while we are alone in the room not while the doc or nurse is in the room! GO FIGURE! They did an xray and nothing else. NO blood work, no breathing treatment. NOTHING ELSE!!! We sat there for the ER doc to come in and she tells me to continue to give him the cphen that his reg doc gave us and to follow up with is pcp... I just look at her and then ask. " you want me to give him the same medicine that I gave to him that led to us coming here?" she replied "yes" I gave me a this go to hell look and told her " I WILL NOT GIVE MY SON THE SAME MEDS THAT MADE HIM THROW UP!!!!!" I was in tears , how in the world could a doctor in her right mind tell me this!!!!???? She looked at me and told me that because his xray was clear and that she had not heard him cough that she could do nothing else. She also stated him being happy and not "ACTING LIKE ANYTHING WAS WRONG" and he even was able to eat. what the heck, so you are telling me since I have a happy baby that I just need to go home and that there is nothing wrong with him? yep thats what she said and told me that the nurse would come with our papers. That is when I lost it then the nurse came in with our papers for me to sign so we could get out of there. She then told me to continue to give him the same meds and to follow up with him doc. I looked at her and told her I would not and I was NOT going to sign ANYTHING!!! UGH! She got the biggest attitude! I still look back at this experience and I can not believe that it even happened but it did!!

So I walked out crying more and more, we followed up with his regular doc the next day..... what do you know.. King Henry has an ear infection. OMGOODNESS! And they did not catch it at the hospital! PS: doc said that an ear infection can come on in a matter of hours so that it is possible that the King did not have this when we were at the hospital. But I believe in my heart that he did have it. I KNEW SOMTHING WAS WRONG!


How things can chance in less than two months...

Where has the time gone? My boy is now way closer to being a 1 year old then a newborn! WOW It is like you wake up and he is crawling! He self feeds and get frustrated doing it cause he can not get the food fast enough to his mouth. When he crawls he wants to walk or stand so bad that he crawls with his left foot flat on the floor. crazy kid. He does this funny thing with his bink and you just can not help but laugh. That boy has a personality like his daddy! But is very independent like me and has the best time just playing with his toys. He loves to give open mouth kisses and they are some of the sloppiest kisses I have ever had but the best that can top any kiss from the hubs! =) The boy went from eating anything you would put in front of him to only wanting sweet pot and any kind of fruit! I tried mixing it with other foods that I know he will eat but he is TOO smart! Where is the little boy that I brought home from the hospital?
Austin is no longer on zantac for his acid reflux and he is 100% switched over to milk based formula, no more stinky soy formula! yay!

The boy will not drink out of sippy cup for NOTHING! you would think I learned my lesson of going out and buy up a bunch of things that he will not use when I did the same thing when trying to figure out bottles that he would drink from. NOPE! There in our cabinet is 3 types of sippy cups that King Henry will NOT drink from.

The King also went of his first trip to the beach since I was laying low from blogging. He LOVES a pool! I should really thing about getting one to put out on our deck. oh yeah, that will be one more thing around the house that I will have to keep up with. I will jump right on it.

SN: Does everyone get the weird " why do you have to bother me?" look when u ask for someone to do something VERY simple for you? UGH that crap drives me NUTS!

ANYWAYS about the king , for the first time in his life he put his feet in the cold waters of the Atlanic Ocean. It def will not be his last time! He had a blast and even came back with a cold and that ended up turning into an ear infection! ugh! This reminds me of another blog post that I need to do.... I will leave u with this, I took the King to the hospital because he coughed so much to the point that he threw up. ( to me, something was just not right) While at the hospital the boy smiles, laughs , eats a bottle and flirts with all the nurses. End of story we walk out of there with me in tears and him still coughing! UGH Happy Day. you just might another post out of me today..... MIGHT
