Makenna's Tonsil Surgery

Poor Makenna had to endure another surgery this year. Her tonsils had gotten so large that they were touching and causing her to have a variety of issues. After talking to the pediatrician and her ENT about them, we all agreed they must come out! So on Valentines Day (I know) we went in to have them taken out! She was so upset! While they had her under,they decided to take out her tubes. The doctor figured that they should have fallen out by now and was slightly concerned that they hadn't. All said and done, she had her tonsils and tubes removed. Overall she did pretty well. She had her stubborn moments, but with time she healed just fine. Hopefully that will be the end of surgeries for this little girl!

Painting with Mom

Not too long ago mommy bought a groupon to a ceramics painting store. She took me one afternoon to paint anything I wanted! I chose a beautiful butterfly for my room! I can't wait to see how it turns out.

Parker Race

Congrats to Chase Motorsports on an AWESOME race down in Parker. It was so great to see my uncle Trav race fast and get to play with my cousins! Looking forward to another great race!!

Blackbean Pirate

Hey everyone! My name is blackbean pirate (well really it is Wyatt, but today I feel like being a pirate). Recently mommy started letting me eat REAL food! No more of that baby puree stuff any more! Let me tell you, real food is amazing! Tonight I got to try black beans! Delish! I can't wait to eat more and more and more!! until next time... ARRRR!!

Playtime

Now that my little brother has gotten older, we play together all the time. Mom loves to take random pictures of us playing or just hanging out. Here are a few from February!

Valentines Day

My favorite part of Valentine's Day is the party my mom and dad have every year. All of my friends come over and we decorate cookies, do crafts, play and eat yummy treats. Here are some pictures from this year's party! I also had mom put a picture of my Valentine Card that I took to school. I love this day filled with love!!

10 Months Old

During this crazy time our little man turned 10 months old. Here is on day 3 of our hospital stay, another month older and FINALLY feeling better! He is such a trooper and we are very lucky to be his parents!

Surgery

Here is Wyatt being taken into the Pediatric ER. The next two pictures are of him watching all the doctors and nurses preparing everything for his procedure. The last picture is him in recovery. He did well... nothing abnormal was found, which made our day. We now know that he has high allergy triggers and we have to constantly monitor him. During the winter and spring months his on maintenance breathing treatments to help prevent any worse outbreaks. Our fingers are crossed!

The Hospital... for our little man

Wyatt has really struggled with breathing this winter. He has an awful wheeze that we just can't seem to get rid of. We have been assigned a lung specialist to go with our allergist/immunologist. Together we are working hard to keep his lungs clear and healthy. This January we didn't win! We went into the Dr. for a deep wheeze. They gave him breathing treatments on oxygen, but were still unable to bring his SATs up above 87. Our pediatrician directed me straight to the hospital. We were admitted and stayed three days. He had breathing treatments that lasted up to 6 hours long. While we were there they also did a surgical procedure called a bronchoscopy. We were doing everything we could to answer questions and eliminate diagnosis.

WTG

WTG always spoils me. She sends me things that sometimes make my mom crazy! This time she sent me a Hokey Pokey skirt! You put it on it sings the Hokey Pokey for you to dance along to. It is AMAZING! I wear it to bed, in the morning, basically every second I can! THANK YOU WTG'S!

Writing

The other night I was working on picking up the house when I realized that it had gotten really quiet. I went out into the family room to find Makenna with a pen writing on her hand! My gut instinct was to get angry, but I stopped myself. I asked her to see what she was writing on her hand. When she turned it around, I smiled. She had wrote "Dad" (backwards). She had many stories on why she did it, but I just thought it was so cute. What a smart little girl!

Happy Birthday 4th AJ

My neighbor and "bestie" AJ turned four and had a great party at his house! Here is a clip from his Carnival party!!

Meeting the Mermaid!

On the last day of Clarissa, Kenton, Kaylee and Colby's visit we went to dinner at the Silverton. We got there just in the time to see the mermaid swimming in the huge aquarium. We got to take pictures with her and blow kisses. It was amazing to see a real mermaid!!
