The Latest News on Dylan!
Well, a lot has happened since Dylan made the newspaper a couple weeks ago. He got pretty ill for a few days, right after he started day care. We were expecting some illnesses, but still it was a challenge - mostly for us, not so much for him. That Monday when we picked him up from day care, Yolanda (his day care provider), told us he had been rather grumpy - very unlike him. When we got him home, he was definitely congested and a little miserable. We called the advice nurse, who after listening to him breathe over the cell phone (!!), told us he probably had 'wet lung' and told us to get to the ER - stat! So, we spent about 5 hours in the ER (including a chest X-ray, which was something to participate in - a baby getting a chest X-ray!), all to be told he had a cold. Got some Albuterol (the stuff asthmatic kids take), Tylenol and we were sent home.
Over the next week, he'd have fever spikes, continued congestion and we kept him home - actually, Jennifer's mom, Pat, took care of him (thank you so much, Pat!) so we didn't have to miss much work. Jennifer had already made a Thursday appointment for Dylan, and when the doc saw him, we found out he had an infection in each ear. That got him started on antibiotics and from there, he rebounded really fast. All is better now and you'd never know he was sick. He was a real trooper - hardly complained at all, sick as he was.
Second big news: he got his first teeth! Two bottom ones. I tried to get a photo of them, but I guess I'll have to have Jennifer pull his lip down so we can get a clear shot of them. He seems to like them, though has taken to biting his mother when she is feeding him. Not good!
Third big news: He is seven months old! Wow! 7 months. It's been a wild ride and so much fun. He went to the doctor's last month for his six month checkup, and he is growing like a weed. Everything checked out: 18 lbs, 1 oz; 27 inches long. Got his shots again. No more injections until he hits a year.
I guess that's enough information for one entry.
The photos are some I took on Sunday, just The Boy sitting around on the floor and in his high chair. He sure is cute! And we sure do love him!
