Herro from the world of Mr. EJ.






EJ is growing up so quickly. He turned 14 months a couple of days ago and is just as cute and precious as ever. He is almost walking (he's just going to take off and do it on his own, here in the very near future). He likes to crawl up into his stroller and scare the crap out of me. He has also been taught how to clap his hands, although I'm not sure if he realizes what he is doing half of the time. He is a very strong boy- he pulls down his baby gates now- and crawls wherever it is that he wants to go.

EJ is also healing very well. He has the follow up to his corrective surgery with the doctor tomorrow afternoon. John is going to take him to that appointment because I get a little sick to my stomach when the doctor starts to poke and prod mister EJ. I'm sure everything will turn out just fine. He's a big strong healthy boy.

John went out of town for a couple days last week and I had the best support system set up while he was gone. Stefanie and Mike came over for a few nights and then Grammy and Meg came over the last two nights. I didn't have to be alone in that house at all. It was great. I am so lucky to have such wonderful friends and family that I can rely on in situations like that. EJ and Mike were too cute for words. Mike was sitting in EJ's little chair and EJ crawled right up to him, sat in his lap, and stole the Gatorade Mike was drinking and began drinking it. It was so cute. Stefanie chased him around the house while he laughed and laughed. What a doll.

Here are some pictures and video for you to enjoy of our little man.

I love you!





We had to go and pick up EJ from daycare early on Thursday because he began vomiting. We took him to the doctor who told us he had two ear infections (unrelated to the vomiting). Dr. Tan said he didn't know why EJ was throwing up, but gave him a two shots, one was an antibiotic for the ear infection, and the other was a anti-nausea drug. The Doc. basically told us to sit tight and wait to see what happens. Well, we did, and EJ is getting better. He continued to throw up during the night and developed a fever, but he's stopped throwing up this morning and began to hold down some Pedialyte. He's also sleeping alot- which I know he needs, since he was up ALL night. We have a follow up appointment in about an hour and he'll receive a second dose of antibiotics and check up on how EJ's doing.

1st Birthday Memories


We picked up EJ from daycare today and he was such a happy little boy. Ms. Ella (his primary daycare provider) decorated her house with birthday stuff and sent EJ home with a "birthday cupcake". EJ fell in love. He's still really picky when it comes to table food- however, that logic went out the window when we placed that cupcake O' sugary goodness in front of him.

Happy Birthday EJ





Happy Birthday my son. Mama loves you very much.

Here's a poem in memory of your 1st year:

When you were born
It was your cry I first heard
On a warm sunny day
It was April the third

You are a prefect little boy
Chubby Little thighs
So personable, and oh,
Those great big blue eyes

One year later
It came too fast
These moments I'll remember
Forever they must last

Happy Birthday to you
God bless you my son
I'll love you forever
My heart you have won
