RSV ARE YOU KIDDING ME

The day after Easter Max had his 6 month check up. Everything seemed to be fine except for a runny nose. The doctor sent us home and by the next day his breathing was a little concerning. I waited as long as possible thinking it was only my imagination. I waited unil 7:30 that night and then took him to the after hours clinic. Thats where the nightmare began. I waited for what seemed to be an eternity and the got stuck with the dang PA, who didn't know what the heck he was doing. He ended up giving max a Nebulizer along with some medicine. Every 4 hours for 30min we had to hold the nebulizer in front of his face, which at first was fun for max until 1am. This went on for 2 days and then I decided I better take him to his REAL doctor. I explaind the situation and he said, "that was a nice try with the nebulizer, but recent studies have shown that it doesn't help RSV, it only makes the kids more jittery." I thought to myself thats why he was up at 3am crying. He went on to tell me Max had RSV and was to be on oxygen for 4 or so days. I was literally in tears. I couldn't stop crying. I felt like the worst mother ever. So we are now on day 4 and Max is doing a lot better but he still has a little bit of wheezy breathing. Tomorrow is his next check up so lets all pray that he can get off this oxygen.

Can you tell it is barely sunny outside. We can't even open our eyes to take a picture.

CABO

Cabo San Lucas

Sorry I have 4 billion pictures, and a slide show as well. If your bugged, just think how bugged everyone in the pictures were. But this trip was probably my most favorite trip i have ever been on. It was so relaxing and incredibly beautiful. We all could have stayed 1 more week, or 2 or 3. Thats why we are going back, right mom and dad?!

Mom Max and Dad. This was Max's first plane ride. He cried on the way up for about an hour, so i started to cry as well. I didn't know what else to do! But on the way down, and the way home you wouldn't have know there was a baby on the plane.

Max just hanging out in the pool. He loved the water.

This is one of my favorite faces Max makes, and we finally got a picture.

This is Fortunato and Max. Right when we got to the house we rented, he came up and grabbed Max. I was a little nervous like who is this guy, and are his hands clean! Then i figured out he was the caretaker of the home, and he would be there all week with us. He is one of the nicest men I have ever met. We all fell in love with him and his wife Lu Lu. We came to learn he loved babies. Every time Max or Asher (JaNae's baby) were in the room, he would come up and hold them or talk spanish baby talk. He did everything from taking care of the house, to cooking, to whatever we wanted. Everything he made was unbelievable, especially his guacamole.

Brandt climbed into Max's tent to play with him, how cute.

Max eating cereal for the first time. He hated it and still does, I don't know what to do.

This is on the deck at our house in Cabo. It was so beautiful there we want to go back.

My toes and yes Hank's toes too. He wanted to suppport Duke, in some weird way!

Over looking the Ocean.

At dinner Max wanted to play with daddy's face, and at the same time watch t.v.
