Somedays this is how I feel!

Pyloric Stenosis

So when I wrote the last post, Dane was the best little baby and I swear like the day after he started spitting up a ton and was way fussy. So the doctor thought it might be reflux but after a week of different medications and finding it got progressively worse he sent me to primary children's for an ultrasound. So come to find out he had Pyloric Stenosis. Which is an enlarged muscle in the stomach, so food never went all the way through his stomach, it was pushed back up. Anyway, it runs in my family and my brother Chris had it, but normally it is the first male and it skips a generation. Well, so they admitted him and didn't let him eat anything for about 18 hours and he had surgery. Wow, it was way hard to watch him go through that, but he is much happier. The nurses were amazing and did everything they could to help him feel comfortable, and they got him to take a binki!!! We thought we had offered the man every kind but I guess we forgot to try the big hospital binks. Also, I am so thankful for my Mom and Mother-in-law for helping out!!


Love this guy!

Lovin' # 3

So I haven't updated yet because I was going to go private first, however, I'm still working on it...So here are some pictures of the newest member of our fam. I just love this little man, he is so much fun to have around. I am constantly amazed at how much the kids love him and love to be around him, it is like he has been part of our family since the beginning.
