Fighting infection

We took Brinson to the doctor on Thurs due to inconsolable crying Weds night. She also was running fever (102). She was diagnosed with bilateral ear infections (no surprise there) and an upper respiratory infection. The doc put her on Ciprodex ear drops and Omnicef (antibiotic) by mouth. She's still running fever of 100-102 and we're giving her alternating Tylenol and Motrin. Send a few extra prayers our way to help B get better soon.

Also, the Rahman family needs super prayers. I'm sure you all know B's NICU buddy Noah. He's in the hospital right now. He has strep pneumonia. We send good wishes his way as well as tons of prayers to Sami and Laura.

Pizza Pizza

Brinson and I had fun at dinner tonight. This was the first time she'd tried pizza. I swear this child makes me laugh so much. Enjoy!

Lots of Construction goin on!

Grammy and Grandfather are still working on the chicken coop. They've had a slight delay due to Grandfather's back not cooperating.

And Daddy along with Uncle Mike have been working hard on all the "pre-deck preparation". We are having to re-grade our yard due to some flood issues. High water and low yard areas do not mix.

What does 3,360 pounds of concrete.....



and an entire weekend of labor get you?



A nice concrete pad!






Best little Chicken Coop in Texas!




There's Grammy...working hard.



Man, what a palace!

Playing with Poms Poms...and Daddy

Brinson playing with her new Poms Poms that SHE picked out herself....(Aunt KD will be proud of the color!!) The second video is her and Daddy clowning around. This child looooves to play!

Knock Knock

Status Post Eye Surgery

I finally got a video of B's eyes. They look better today, however, she now has a runny nose and is sneezing up a storm. I sure hope it's just allergies!

Pot

This happened a couple a days ago. I was working in the kitchen early in the morning just after eating breakfast with Brinson and I hear this moaning. I came around the corner and this is what I saw.......

A child stuck in the pot.

No zombie is going to eat my brains....hehehe

Silly at Grandparents

Last month, Bert had his niece and her son over from Kansas. So it made for a good opportunity to have dinner at the grandparents. Brinson was quite silly at times. It was so much fun!

Brinson telling time already!

Is that a butterfly on my shirt?

Nana and Brinson

Tug of war! Who is winning?

Eye surgery update

Brinson had her eye surgery today without incident. Everything went well, she cried when waking up from anesthesia, slept, slept more, and still slept. We had to stay an extra hour because she was sooooo sleepy. She's slept most of the evening. As I'm typing this, we are just finishing up her dinner. She's sitting in her high chair, still outta it, but smiling. :) What a trooper! I don't have any pics of Brinson's eye.....(too difficult to get one) but I found something on the internet that is a close resemblance.


Pretty creepy huh?


B's sitting on Daddy's lap watching "Single Ladies" and is happy. All is well. :)

Too funny for words

Brinson started this at dinner tonight, and as you can see I was cracking up. No, it's nothing neurological....she does it with prompting. Ned said she looked possessed and doesn't seem to think it was funny. He said people watching the videos will think she's got something going on. I hope people see the humor in it as I do.
I can't stop laughing everytime I watch it. We went over to see Grandfather and Grandma tonight and she showed them her "new move". It seemed to have started with mangos...haha!
