Sharing Is Caring (With Kylie)


Sad Baby

This last week was not one worth repeating. It started with a fever and ended with an overnight stay at the Special Care Unit at Arnold Palmer. The happy news is Daxton is home and healthy. An intestinal infection caused some air in his abdomen that made the doctors concerned. After many tests, tubes, and tears we finally got our answers. He had a rare case of trapped air outside the intestinal wall but inside the mucus membrane. It went away on the scans after an overnight stay and we don't anticipate it coming back. It was a very emotional and difficult week for everyone but mommy did soak up the snuggles in the hospital. The best part was when Daxton gave his parents the best anniversary present by being able to come home. The highlights for Daxton were the morphine, mommy kisses and daddy's vest for the X-ray.

Graduating to the Walker

He is getting ready to walk! He loves cruising around the house using his walker, bike, or the little shopping cart our neighbor left on our front door.

Inexpensive Solution

Babies commonly love to pull tissues out of the box for fun and Daxton is definitely one of them. I saw this solution in a magazine and decided to give it a try. Just some fabric scraps and an old wipes bin and Daxton can play to his hearts desire. It takes me longer to fold the fabric back into the bin than for him to pull it out.

Peas and Yogurt

Our silly little dude will find the smallest of things to be funny. He is so full of emotions and expressions as he develops his personality.
