Long time no Post....

Sorry- I know its been a while. We have been quite busy. Lets see, Madden's first week of daycare - he was sick! With the croup aka "daycare cough." UGH!
Then after that he had pink eye, then he was good for the first week of February; which was good because we went to New Orleans for a wedding. He did fabulous on his first trip to the big easy!
The following week was not so easy. Thursday I thought he was coming down with pink eye again so I stayed home with him. He slept all day (not like him at all) and early afternoon he started throwing up. I remember at our first doc apt the doc said to call if he ever thew up (dehydration) - I asked "how would I know?" and he said, "youll know." I hated that answer. Well, I definitely knew! He did it 3 times in 1 hour. I called the nurse, mom and adam - crying! mom got to the house first and we went to the doc. She was going to send him home because he only had a low grade fever, i reminder her of the tylenol i gave him just a few hours before so his temp could have been higher. She insisted on bloodwork and thank goodness. It was sky high (thank goodness i thought that it was not too low).
She said she had to admit us to the hospital - which was fine with me. Anyway, to make a long story short. After getting the IV started, we all went to sleep and the next morning he was much better and we went home (friday) Saturday, me, mom and dad started feeling sick. I aske adam to call his dad to come get Madden. Thank goodness because adam started that night. We were sick all weekend and went to get him Monday. Monday night Paul called and said he had it - oh no!

Last weekend he started with a cough - brought him in and it was just a cold. I brought him back yesterday b/c the cough was not getting better. He has a sinus and eye infection - goodness gracious!!
Can you see why I have not posted lately - craziness!!
love yall
