Alright, it has been a while. I had a post typed and had it saved in my documents, but you can't copy and paste. So, I will just shorten that up for you. It has been a crazy couple of weeks here. The other week, Oliver woke up with a cough. It wasn't anything serious, but I was keeping an eye on it. Well, it got really bad by noon. It made me nervous to hear him coughing so hard and so much. It was such a big cough for a 7 week old! I called the nurse and she told me to bring him right away. The PA gave him a breathing treatment which really helped his breathing! They tested him for RSV and whopping cough....thankfully, they both came back clear. We got a nebulizer and had to give him breathing treatments throughout the day. We haven't had to give him a treatment in a few days, so hopefully that nasty cough is gone. During this time, Jamie got a cough and runny nose also. At least with him, I can give him medicine to help him feel better.
How about some other updates on the boys? Oh, sorry I won't have any pictures in this post. I need to upload more to the computer. Jamie is awesome. He is feeling better, but still has a bit of a runny nose. It seems like he is talking more and more every week. He loves to read and the other day he brought the Dr. Seuss book, Hop on Pop to me and started reading it! I know he only memorized it, but still. He was so excited to be telling me the story. We got him a Leap Frog Tag Jr. for Christmas. I'm thinking that he will enjoy that. We have been watching a lot of Toy Story 3 here. "Wee Wee" and "B" as Jamie calls them. He also got a new Christmas suit and I had to return it for a 5T! The shirt and vest fit very nicely now, but the pants will have to be hemmed.
As for Oliver....he is feeling much better. He is smiling all the time. Growing like a weed! He has his 2 month (can you believe it!) check-up next week. I had to get out the 6 month clothes the other day. He can wear some 3 month stuff yet, but any one piece things like sleepers, have to be 6 months. He is starting to follow objects. It is so great to see him do more things.
I can't wait to get the house decorated for Christmas. Our house is so cluttered right now because of all the toys. We are moving the boys to the bigger bedroom and making their current room a play room. I can't wait to get those toys out of my living room :) Eric doesn't have to work tomorrow, so I plan on moving more things and get things situated so I can start decorating this weekend. I am also looking forward to taking our picture for our Christmas card. Both the boys have suits with red shirts and Eric and I both have nice red shirts. I went black Friday shopping today with my sister. Wal-Mart's sale started at midnight so we decided to hit that up. It was a bit crazy, I won't lie! I got everything for the boys. But I feel kind of bad. I got all this stuff for Jamie, but nothing for Oliver. I know he won't care, but I just feel bad. Everything I got though, Oliver will use also when he gets older. There just isn't anything that he needs, except for some more cloth diapers. I just don't know what to do about that feeling. I got home around 1:20AM and decided to write this post and watch Supernanny on DVR. I know I should be in bed! Oh, Oliver slept throught the night last night. He ate around 9:30 and fell alseep around 11 or so and didn't get up til 6! Hopefully now that he is feeling better, he will continue to sleep through the night. I am getting tired so I think I will head off to bed now :)
I'm glad to hear that both boys are feeling better. Getting ready for Christmas is always so much fun. Especially decorating! Now you've got two little ones that Santa will be visiting for. ;)Exciting!
