November

Well, I can't believe November is over and we are coming up on Christmas! Things have been crazy around our house! At least one of us has been sick since before Thanksgiving! It all started when Adam got pink eye and it hasn’t really stopped since. Poor Wheaton has had the worst of it. He has had the worst cough for weeks. After several trips to the doctor's office and one trip to the ER in the middle of the night, he was diagnosed with Bronchiatitis (basically baby bronchitis). We have been using the nebulizer every few hours and he seems to be feeling better, but overnight is still really rough. He has been waking up on average about 7 times per night. We are all exhausted. Needless to say, blogging has been on the back burner with many of my other usual pleasures like sleeping and brushing my hair. The worst of it has been feeling so helpless. It's so hard to know what is wrong, what to do, when to call the doctor. I just want him to feel better.

Aside from our various minor illnesses, things have been going along pretty well. As you can see from the photo above, Wheaton has been smiling despite his awful cough. His teachers adore him and have said he is becoming quite the little flirt! He rolled over from his belly to back and is so close to rolling from back to belly! He seems quite pleased with himself. He is not sleeping through the night, but that issue deserves it’s very own post so I won’t even do there right now. Plus, his cough has really complicated the whole sleeping thing. He is now 13 pounds and 12 ounces and 24 inches long. He is such a big boy!

Well, Novenmber was a busy month so lets get started.

The month started out with a bang. Adam's show at Gallery 5 was great. So many people came out for the show!We were all pretty beat when it was finally over! Poor Adam got pink eye!

We had many visitors that week including Wheatons Grammy! We had so much fun on her visit. Sadly, we didn't get many pictures, but there she is above enjoying the show.

December promises much more fun. My new plan is to post monthly on my blog. Hopefully I can handle that! Thanks for checking in! Love, Blair
