Sickness update

-

Cooper is better!!! He still has a runny nose and a cough, but if that is all we are excited.

We took Max back to the doc. yesterday because Sunday he had broken out in a full body rash. The rash was an allergic reaction from his antibiotic and sense his ear infection has still not cleared up, he was given a 3rd antibiotic. Poor baby. Please pray for him. He is in a good mood during the day which is wonderful, but the nights are tough on his little body. Also please pray for his night terrors. He has been having them off and on for almost a year now, but last night was the worst yet. He was not awake and we could not wake him, but he screamed, cried, and threw his body around. It really scared Jeff and I.

We know that God has this and will heal our little man just like he has Cooper.

The picture I posted showes a very rare moment. Max actually fell asleep in my arms last night. He hasn't done that in a long time.

We just love our little men so much!

Rebecca - I had to think of "baby" Andrew when I read about Max's night terrors. When Andrew was actually a pretty big little boy - he was in school - he had horrible night terrors. The same as you have described them and absolutely terrifying. A nurse friend of mine told us they were caused by a drop in blood sugar and to be sure and have him eat some sort of protein at bedtime and no sweets - evidently the protein (we used cheese) caused the blood sugar not to drop as severely. It worked like a charm with him.
It may have been just a fluke for us but he never had another after we started the cheese at bedtime and would at least be worth a try??? I'll sure be thinking of you-that was a very trying time.
Hope all will be well soon and you'll have a wonderful Christmas! Margo

Precious Piper

Our precious Piper will be two weeks old tomorrow! So much has changed and yet she has slipped right into our family so perfectly. I will have to write more to tell you what has been going on in our home, but for now enjoy these photos I took of her this morning. I love the simplicity of her holding the pink carnation. So beautifully organic.

We Still Love Eachother

When we were first Married, Jeff's Dad would always ask us if we still love eachother...well we do. This weekend we are celebrating our 6 year anniversery of our first date! I had to show off what Jeff got me because it is so neat. He said it is to help me feed Cooper...but I know he wanted it for himself too. He is very sneaky...hehe. Anyway, I will be enjoying my new Eagle's Nest lounger for a very long time. (If you come to visit us I might let you try it out.)

Day 3: July 28

Today was THE day!  Miley Mengcong Bostrom’s Gotcha day!  We woke up anxiously at 5am and waited until 6:30 before going down to breakfast.  Breakfast was wonderful.  There were all kinds of food we had never had before and some that looked familiar like fruit, sausage, and bacon.   We had to wait until 10:30 until finally getting to meet Miley so we walked around the inside and outside of the hotel.  There is a lap pool that is amazing. We can’t wait to swim in it….maybe tomorrow.  We found a bakery that sells the cutest cakes in the shape of cars or cartoon characters.  We will probably buy one for Miley, because tomorrow is her birthday.  We were mainly trying to waist time… When it was finally time, our guide told one family member come outside and get your new child.  Well that wasn’t going to happen, Jeff and I both went with him….and….we….waited….again!  It was probably one a couple of minutes, but sudde...
