Corbin vs. Wii

I can't get Corbin off the wii. It has been really fun to set back and watch him play on it. He has gotten really good at some of the games(better than me on some of them).

Christmas 2008

Christmas was really good this year. We got up at 8:30 and started our day with lots of hugs and kisses. Then I went out into the livingroom and took some pictures then the boys came out to see what they got. I know that they were both very happy with what they got. If you see a really red spot on Braydons face it is were SANTA gave him a kiss when he was here. You might not be able to see Corbin's b/c he rolls around in his sleep and rubed it off. Hope that yall all had a great christmas as well...

A VERY SAD WEEKEND!

On saturday December 6th Tory and I worked on the house after coming home that night we picked up our boys from my mother in laws and came home. A bit later we had some of our friends over for dinner and a movie. We put Braydon down for bed around 8pm and Corbin down around 8:30pm. After getting the boys into bed we started our movie and played a game. We also had our niece Lataya staying with us that night and it was such a blessing that she was there because we did not have to get Corbin up out of bed. At 11pm that night Braydon woke up and was coughing really bad and was having a difficult time breathing. I held him until he went back to sleep then he did the same thing so at 12:45am we took him to the hospital. They gave him a breathing treatment and told use that he has Croup, then sent us on are why back home. We got home around 4am and put him to bed he slept really good. Got up at 7:45am and was good to go for that day. Then after lunch he showed the same symptoms that he had that night. Tory then called his doctor and let them know of his symptoms they then told him that we needed to get him back to the ER so we did. We got there at about 4:30pm. He had it so bad that they wanted him to stay over night to make sure that his breathing would get better, but he had a really bad night so they made us stay another night. After the first night and first full day in the hospital we were hoping that he would have a good night so that we could go home that next morning. He had a very good night so they let us go home today.

I had no idea what Croup was. So for those of you who don't know here are some facts.
-Croup does not refer to a single illness, but rather a group of conditions involving inflammation of the upper airway that leads to a cough that sounds like a bark, particularly when a child is crying.
-Most Croup is caused by viruses, but similar symptoms may occasionally be caused by bacteria or an allergic reaction. The viruses most commonly involved are parainfluenza virus,adenovirus,respiratory syncytial virus,influenza,and measles.
-Most cases of Croup due to viruses are mild and can be treated at home,though rarely it can be sever and even life-threatening. Some kids are more prone to developing Croup,especially those who were born prematurely or with narrowed upper airways,and babies with a history of breathing problems like asthma.

The wall are up!

Here is another update on the house. We now have the outer walls all up. I have a lot of picture and wanted to show most of them so I thought that I would make a little slide show. Hope that yall enjoy the updates and the pictures. I hope that we will be putting up the inside walls tomorrow. I will take pictures of it and post them as soon as I can.
