  • Finally better

    After about a month of being sick, Rylie is finally starting to feel better. We went to see the doctor last week since her cough was getting worse. She prescribed some sort of steroid to strengthen her lungs, but I didn’t feel too comfortable giving it to her. We still gave it a try hoping it would ease her cough, but she experienced numerous side effects. Headaches throughout the day, dizziness, and stomach ache, but her cough was still really bad. We took her to another doctor the next day and he said that the steroid should have never been prescribed to her. He prescribed antibiotics instead and I noticed an instant improvement in her cough. I’m really hoping she won’t get sick for awhile because this mama needs to catch up on some sleep.

    Since feeling so much better, she was finally able go on a date with her daddy! Here she is excited to see her favorite band, Twinkle and Friends!

  • 7 month update

    Happy 7 months to my little man!

    - Will point his hand to where he wants to go.
    - Starting to use his knees while he crawls.
    - Sits for longer periods of time without falling down.
    - Can go from sitting position to crawling and vice versa.
    - He likes to go poo poo in private
    - Can pull himself up on everything! This means we have to keep our eyes on him all.the.time. While standing, he tries to take steps
    - Pulling himself up in his crib. He doesn’t know how to sit from standing position, so for a couple of days I had to go in during his nap times to lay him down again.
    - I see two little teeth on the bottom. yay~!
    - Can clap his hands.
    - Can do “more” sign during his meals.
    - Lowered his crib soon after 6 months.
    - Takes two naps (one around 9am and one around 2pm)
