Bon Fire 2012!!




We had our first Bon Fire the Second weekend in October!!  It was a blast.  We had some friends over and the Kids roasted marshmallow's!!  Here are a few pictures of our fun!!

Skylar at 10 Weeks!

Yes our precious angel is growing like a weed.  Although we should have known from my pregnancy she is by far a very difficult child as well.  From colic to formula changes.  We have been in close contact with the doctors since august for both of our children and i am not sure who is getting tired of hearing from each other me or the doctor's! 

Skylar they now believe is not only colic, which we hope resolves here very soon, but is having a milk intolerance.  We have now taken her off milk completely and put her on soy.  We also have to give her suppository's often.  No not any fun at all.  I have attached a few pictures of our angel at her best!!

Seizure #3


This morning started out very chaotic!  Jeffrey woke up at about 6am in a deep stare.  He was sort of talking but within 15 mins went into a seizure.  Gave him his diastat and called 911.  No matter how many times i go through this its still very scary!  I cry and get all worked up.  He did come out of the seizure and fall asleep, which is very normal due to the meds, all before the ambulance arrived at the house.   He was congested in the ambulance so they gave him a nebulizer treatment.  We were in fauquier hospital ER for 4 hours awaiting Blood work and chest x-ray.  Come to find out Jeffrey has the onset of pneumonia in his lower left lobe of his lung.  Now he is on zithromax for that.  We go on wends Oct 17th to the neurologist in Fairfax to talk about the seizure and if he will be put back on any seizure meds.  Please pray for our poor little man in hopes that this was just another fluke!!  I am attaching some pics of our little hero during his stay this morning!!

A simple Favor PLEASE!

Our family would like everyone to keep us in there prayers!  Jeffrey is now medication free for the first time in 4 years.  This is very scary for us!  We all pray that he continues to stay seizure free so we will not have to have a scary hospital visit and put him back on meds yet again.  If this were to happen he will NOT go back on keppra as the neurologist thinks that the keppra was causing Jeffrey's hyperactivity!  We have yet to see a decrease in that but his moods have been better!  That's a huge step for our hero!  Again just please pray that we can continue on our path to success for our miracle boy!  Thanks everyone for everything!!!

Skylar is 2 MONTHS!!


little baby girl is officially 2 months old and yes she fell asleep right as i started to take pics!!  Silly girl!!!

Doctors appointments

Jeffrey and Skylar both had there Doctors appointments on Oct.1.  Thankfully both children are doing awesome!!  Jeffrey is growing well although he is a Little short for his age but not my much.  He has been growing over the past year though!!  He is above weight for his age!  What can i say boy likes to eat :)!!!  He is also very smart for his age!!  He is 43.5 lbs 39.5 inches tall!! Jeffrey also got his Flu shot which he was very up happy about but got over very fast when McDonald's was an option!!!

Skylar is below average in everything!  She is weighing in at 11lbs 7oz and 20 inches long.  She is short and thin for her age but again in growing well!!  Her little head is also a little below average but nothing to worry about!  She is colic but hopefully by the age of 3 months she will start to out grown that!  She refuses to self sooth herself.  No Binky and loves/ has to be moving most of the day.  She loves to rock!!  She did very well with getting three shots in her legs and one oral immunization!  She currently does sleep through the night!  She eats about every 3-4 hours about 4oz of formula.  We have started to put rice cereal in her night time bottle as well!  She really enjoys that!!!
