An update

Haven't been on here in a while, here is the latest info. Things have been going really well. *knock on wood* At the beginning of January we had a birthday party for Ethan. I can't believe he is a year old. The time went by so fast. He loves to be around people and so of course he LOVED all of the attention he got at his party. He gobbled up his cupcake and liked playing with the paper that his presents were wrapped in. A few days after his birthday party, Ethan started to get very congested. He started running a high fever. I took him to the doctor the next day and she diagnosed him with pneumonia. The doctor was comfortable treating him at home and sent us home with antibiotics and instucted me on what would warrent a hospital admission. Later that evening, Ethan just kept gettin worse. I couldn't keep his fevers under control and he was having a hard time breathing. He was so listless. I was past the point of being comfortable treating him at home. I took him into the ER and they gave him a breathing treatment right away. They did chest x-rays which confirmed pneumonia along with bronchitis. They also tested for RSV which of course came back positive. So Ethan spent a few nights in the hospital. We were sent home with a nebulizer and more antibiotics. Then of course Dax and Emma got sick. This is all happening right in the midst of me stating back at college. So Dax and Emma went to the doctor and Emma had a double ear infection and a sinus infection and Dax had bronchitis and a sinus infection. Then 3 days after that the flu bug decided to visit our house. YUCK!!! So Everyone is finally healthy and classes are going well. My sister in law had her baby a little over a week ago (4 weeks early) and he is doing really well. He was 5lbs 12oz. I am an Aunt for the fourth time!
Ethan starts more therapy tomorrow. He is getting two extra sessions a week in addition to the MISD. He will start at developing connections for private therapy. Honestly I am fine with where he is at right now but the therapy is free and I figured it couldn't hurt. He is doing so well in so many areas. He is my little social butterfly. He loves attention from anybody (except now the stranger anxiety is starting to kick in.) Anyway, not much else has been going on. I will post some pictures of Ethan's party another time but now it is late and I have to try and get some sleep.
