Bryce Ultrasound

In case you don't check Josh's blog, here is a link to Bryce's Ultrasound video. It is about 5:30 minutes long and he is sooooo cute!

He's a cutie!

Just got back from my last ultrasound of this pregnancy. Everything is looking GREAT. Bryce is measuring right on (28 weeks, 1 day) and he weighs 2 lbs, 11 ozs. He is head down and everything is ready to go. I will say that he looks just like Ty and Brett. The big question is whether he will have a head full of hair (like Brett) or not so much (like Ty). Here are a couple of pictures that they gave us. They also gave us a video tape. Now we just have to get a VCR :)

Herpetic Stomatatis

That would my son's current issue. In case you are wondering what that all entails, I will fill you in. It is the Herpes virus (not anything sexual although I had to work surprisingly hard to convinve my mother of that - She is so weird). It is accompanied by a high fever, blisters in the mouth, sore and swollen gums that bleed easily, and sore throat. He has just really had a crummy week.

Long story short, we are in isolation. Apparantly this virus is really contagious and it doesn't just affect kids so we can't really go anywhere or do anything.

I get to go to the Dr tomorrow at least. Hopefully, I will have some really good ultrasound pictures for you all.

Eye, Mom.

You have got to be kidding me! We finally have Ty's eye looking relatively normal - still red, but he can open it. What does he do? He takes a nose dive into the coffee table and hits the corner (I mean, right on the corner) with the SAME eye. What did I do? Freak out, of course. I just knew that we were headed for the emergency room or that his eye had popped out or something equally bad or gross. Nope. It just looks kinda bad. He may or may not have busted a couple of blood vessels in his eye. I can't tell because he isn't opening it all the way yet. Most importantly, I want you all to know that I did NOT beat him. I may have thought about it though.

My Poor Baby

This is what my baby looked like when he woke up this morning. He was freaked out to say the least and I was a little concerned as well. I *think* that he got bit by a rogue mosquito that managed to get into the house. He has bites on his hand (swollen) and his head (big knot) as well. I called the Dr and he just said to give him Benadryl. We are getting by on that for now, but if he is still swollen tomorrow they will look at it when he goes for his 2 year old check.
