MY LITTLE MAN!


Jax is having a hard time with his adenoids.He has problems eating and sleeping.I elevated his crib so he could sleep better.I am not sure if its that or he just plain don't like his crib because he has not wanted to sleep in it at all.It is almost 3 A.M. and he is wide awake I am ready for bed .He did not hardly anything today because its hard to eat and breath at the same time.Tonight i gave him a bath and he fell asleep in activity seat.I woke him trying to get him to sleep in his crib the stinker.Then he decided he was hungry and he ate 2 bottles.Now i am just waiting for him to go to sleep so i can.His Neurologist appointment is tomorrow.I am hoping all goes well and he can get a medicine to help control his seizures.

ROUGH NIGHT!

My sweet baby had a rough night.His adenoids are the biggest problem he has going on well not the biggest the seizures are.They are so enlarged he has a time breathing and when he has his bottle its terrible.He can suck i did not think he could.He chews the nipple because if he sucks it he cant breath because of his adenoids.He woke up crying and snorting he was hungry and having a hard time breathing.I gave him a bottle(he already had his Zyrtec) and he ate it and settled down some.
After his feeding and getting him comfy he had another seizure.I wish Monday would hurry up.I do hope he schedules a cat scan i would like to know what is going on in my babies brain.Ok back to what i was talking about.He woke at 3:30 a.m for the second time...Woke at 1 a.m too at this time he just wanted to be cuddled bless his heart.So i set in the rocking chair with him until 2 a.m.It is 5:30 A.M. and he is sleeping and i am up.I cant go to sleep now.The kids will be getting up soon for school and i have to dress Landen and get him out the door.
Then the plumber is coming this morning as we have a major backup going on.My day is cut out already.I cant lay down as i am afraid i wont hear Jaxson if he wakes up.I sleep like the dead and don't hear nothing most times.Please Pray Jax has no more seizures until we can get him seen and on medication for them.

BATH TIME!

Jax loves BATHS!

NO PT AND OT TODAY!

I was packing the diaper bag to head to the hospital for Jaxson's PT and OT appointment he had a seizure.I knew something was up he did not act like he was feeling none to good this morning.He is fine and i am charting them and what type they are for the neurologist.I am not new to seizures as our Landen also has them.I called and rescheduled his appointment for tomorrow.
I have been trying new foods on him.He loves turkey and rice and mixed veggies .I buy all kinds of baby foods and so far he has liked everyone i have tried.He loves to eat and when i say are you ready to eat his mouth flies open like a bird its so cute.I have not taken any pics lately i promise i will get new ones soon he is so darn ADORABLE.Evenings are his favorite time and he coos and moves his little mouth trying so hard to talk.I love everything about our Little man.I am so happy he is home and doing so well.

ENJOYING LIFE!

My husband started back to work this week.The first week is orientation for him as so much has changed in his absence.Yesterday was my first day alone with my sweet bundle of pure joy.I enjoyed the day with him so much.My husband the wonderful man he is hired my friend to help me with the housework.Jaxson takes allot of my day(NOT COMPLAINING)that i was having a hard time keeping up.Our schedule goes like this..Jaxson wakes at 9 a.m...breathing treatment..then he gets diaper changed and dressed then he eats 2 bottles.It takes awhile to get these done.then its cuddle for a bit i set him in his seat so i can fold clothes..wash dishes vacuum or dust.The afternoon time usually at 1p.m. we do Therapy which also takes allot of time.I love all i do for my little guy.I am grateful for the extra help with the house though so i am not complaining there.
We also have PT and OT once a week at the hospital. Our schedule will get really busy soon.He has upcoming appointments.I am excited to find out what all comes about with these appointments.I am watching my son grow and he is learning so much already.Last night i put a rattle in his hand and he shook it and smiled.I told his good Job and he smiled again.He has not had much to do with toys but we are getting there.I am loving my little guy so much and its nice not having to share ha ha.

JAXSON MEDICAL UPDATE!

Today did not go as planned but what day ever does?All Jaxsons blood test came back i was waiting for the Doctor to call me.Instead i received a call from the endocrinologist at children's mercy hospital.They told me the doctor had contacted them and faxed his blood work to them.Jaxsons thyroid test was high and would we come in today at 3p.m. I was concerned and said yes we would be there.They explained about the thyroid and showed me his levels they also was worried about Graves disease.They gave me a script for his thyroid which i was worried about because of the side effects.They told me not to fill it just yet to go to Lab and have them draw blood on Jaxson so they could re check his thyroid levels and check for graves disease.We got the blood done and they called back an hour later.They said his Thyroid levels are normal and to tear up the script and call and cancel the appointment on Monday.I was worried but am Glad it is all OK.I am happy our doctor has been wonderfully awesome and very cautious about Jaxsons health.
On a great note...Jaxson was weighed and he weighs 20 lbs now.All his other blood work was great.I was happy he was HEP A,B and C negative.He loves to eat and is branching out with the baby food.I found if i heat it he eats it allot better He likes his food warm.He likes to make sounds and i call him chatter box.Evening seems to be his favorite time and he gets more verbal and smiley in the evenings.He is such a joy and boy we are all enjoying him so much.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
