Austin is 4 months old!

Austin turned 4 months old 2-14-09 (Valentines Day). The day started out not so good. This past week he has been sick with a runny nose and a bad cough. Friday night he coughed so hard that he threw up. When we were cleaning him up we noticed that his breathing was really bad. It was like when he was born and his lung collapsed. I took him to the doctor first thing Saturday morning and they ran some tests on him and poor baby has RSV! Its a respiratory infectetion. Its highly contagious, so our original plans of watching our neighbors son, Jackson, were not going to happen. He is almost 2 and we were going to watch him so his mommy and daddy could go eat a yummy dinner. Anyways, Austin has a ear infection also, so he is on antibiotics and a breathing treatment. The doctor (who I loved) said that we could treat Austin at home because he is getting good oxygen levels. What a relief! We have to go back on Monday. Austin is doing his breathing treatments pretty well and is doing great. He is acting really good for being so sick. The breathing treatment makes him really hyper. So it was fun putting him on the floor and just letting him play. He started rolling over! We got is weight checked at the doctors and Austin is 18 lbs. He is my big boy.

Right after he rolled over.

My dad came over for Valentine's Day dinner. I made homemade shrimp alfredo. I even went out and caught my own shrimp (just kidding). Thanks grandmom for the recipe! It was a great evening to a hectic day. Dinner was yummy and we all just relaxed.


A few weeks ago, I celebrated my 27 birthday! I had a huge test on my birthday so, it wasn't excatly how I pictured my day, but it was still a good day. I studied all day long. I took a break for lunch and we all went to Longhornes. We used a gift card we got for Christmas. I love restaurant gift cards! Corey and Savannah made a quick dinner for me and got me a cake. Then I was off to school. I love my family so much! I hope everyone had a great Valentines day.
