Little Ryder

So Ryder's bronchitis developed into pneumonia and asthma! geez, I know, poor kid, he was wheezing a lot for a couple of days and I decided to take him to an instacare( afterhours clinic) and they took xrays of his chest. The doctor said he had a little pneumonia and they gave him a breathing treatment and antibiotics to take. He is feeling a lot better, but the poor little guy had been home for 3 days and yesterday he wouldn't stop crying and saying "outside" and looking at the window, so we felt bad for him and took him miniature golfing. He was really happy, and so was I. I took 2 days off work to stay home and take care of him. Today we had to drop him off at my moms so we could go to church since we didn't go last sunday because he had bronchitis! It was kind of nice to go and not worry about him being all over the place :> Well that's it for now, I will write soon.

Friday

Well, I finally had a friday off from work! except I spent most most of the day running errands and taking ryder to dr's appointments. He's had a bad cough this week, and something told me that he had bronchitis, I don't like to take him to see the dr cause most of the time it's just a virus and all he needs is tylenol, but my motherly instincts told me to just take him anyway. Well, Ryder has bronchitis! the dr. gave him antibiotics and cough syrup. I think he's feeling better already. I'm sick too, in fact, I have the same symptoms Ryder has, so I probably have bronchitis too, but i'll tough it out. Well after taking him to the dr. , I had to take him to American Fork Hospital for an EKG (heart test) just for his upcoming check up with his cardiologist. I had the worst memories come to my mind as soon as we walked in! This is the hospital where I took Ryder when he was sick and had to be life flighted to Primary Childrens Hospital a year and a half ago. I felt uneasy. Anyway we finally got in to get his EKG, I didn't think he would stay still because he was just off the walls all day today, but the tech that did the test was this really big guy, with a shaved head, and was very intimidating. Ryder was able to sit still for 10 seconds, which was enough to get a decent reading. I asked to look at the results because I've done EKGs on people before when I worked at a clinic a year ago, his results looked really good, so now we just have to wait for his cardiologist to read them and compare them to his last one. So anyway, it's been an exhausting day! At least I got to spend the whole day with my little guy, I really did enjoy his company, I miss hanging out with him all day :

New Haircut!

So, after having long hair and same style for 2 years or maybe even longer!, I decided to get my hair cut today, I don't know if I love it, but I like it, I still need to get used to it. My sister Alicia is finally done building her house and we are all getting together at her place tomorrow, it should be fun. This was a long week! I had to work so much and it was really stressful, hopefully next week will be better. Oh yeah, while I was getting my haircut, this guy that was next to me was getting his hair done as well, and man could he talk! I could tell the girl cutting his hair was really annoyed, specially cause he was asking her questions about her tribe (she was native-american) and how that worked, and about her reservation, and just kept going on and on and on!, i felt like telling him to shut up! Sorry but i think it's really annoying when people talk a lot when they're getting their hair done. My stylist was great, she pretty much didn't say anything, she just asked what I wanted and got the job done! that's how I like things to go.

Here are recent pictures of Ryder.

We had a big snow storm this weekend, so we took Ryder tubing. we pulled each other around with the 4 wheeler. It was so much fun and Ryder enjoyed every second of it. We watched the superbowl and were glad the Giants won the game, well Marc was happy, I don't really care for football. We've been so busy with school and work lately, I am exhausted. Ryder is getting so big and talking so much, mostly in spanish, it's so fun to have a little guy follow me around and hang out with me. He is such a sweet boy and loves to cuddle with his mom and dad. Just a month ago he could not sit still for longer than one minute, but within the last few weeks he's been able to sit through a whole movie! I think we have watched Shrek 1, 2 and 3 about twice each in the last week! he loves shrek. He will also sit on the couch in the mornings and watch cartoons. We are potty training him and he's making some progress, on Sunday he said pee pee and I took him to the bathroom and he went pee in the toilet! we were so excited, he also lets us know when he goes #2, but he tell us when he's done! we have to work on that one. I know he's really young to start potty training but i think he can do it. well that is about it for the month of January. Here are some pictures of our snow day and other fun times.
