I know that germs serve a purpose - but I'd really like to eradicate them from our home! Here's a recap of life for Aaron lately:
Saturday, December 19: trip to Urgent Care for an oral steroid for croup and antibiotics for an ear infection. He was still happy thru this ordeal - amazing to me!
New Year's Eve: eyes starting oozing and I feared pink-eye. Starting coughing a bit. Hands constantly in his mouth - is it teething??
New Year's Day - not faring so great - but still pretty happy.
Monday, January 4: eyes are oozing like mad! They actually get matted shut.
Tuesday, January 5: take him to see Dr. He gets a nasal swab that reads positive for RSV. Looked in ears and determined he has ear infection (still/again). Goes to get a chest x-ray to make sure it's not pneumonia. The device they have to use for babies looks like a mid-evil torture device! They sit on something resembling a saw horse and then their arms are stuck over their head while a plastic device wraps around their entire body. He didn't have a shirt on and somehow that made it look even worse! It was very difficult for Mommy not to cry! We headed back to the Dr's office where Aaron got a nebulizer treatment. Off to the Pharmacy to get antibiotic, nebulizer and albuterol. Aaron proceeds to projectile vomit 4 times in the space of about 14 hours. Determine it's from the antibiotic and need to get a new one. He's been sleeping pretty much on Mommy or Daddy - so needless to say they are not getting much sleep. Last night he did manage to sleep in his very elevated crib for about 6 hours!! He woke up looking like he went to battle and lost! He had the biggest blood clotted nose!
I think even Falco feels bad for the boy b/c he lays next to him as to protect him and keep him jolly - or at least as jolly as can be expected.
Oh, little Aaron - may Jesus' healing power wash over you and thru you to bring you to full health!

I can't believe! Aaron is already 4 months old - where has the time gone? He is such a bundle of joy that makes my heart melt. He is talking and laughing so much now. One of his favorite places to hang out is in the window seat under his hanging toys batting at them. He chews on his hands like they are smothered in the best thing he's ever tasted.
