9 month pics and ENT appointment!

Well we went yesterday to the ENT and Grayson will be getting tubes in his ears on May 20th. I am very torn on this as it makes me so nervous cause he is so young, but it is also routine now a days! The main reason I am leaning more towards the tubes is Grayson still has fluid in his ears that is not currently infected, but he prob will get another infection prior to the tubes. Also, they did a hearing test while at the consult and he is already showing signs of hearing loss. It is very minimal and is only in the VERY low tones, but it can affect his hearing if it continues and right now it is reversible so I think that the tubes are our best option! The doctor is so nice and I feel VERY comfortable with him! Grayson will need earplugs to go swimming or be submerged in water SO we went ahead and ordered those cause they take about 2 weeks! They are super cool, I chose the colors, Grayson helped, by trying to eat the samples! It makes me laugh!

Ok we also got our 9 month pictures yesterday. I have been wanting naked pictures of him since he was born, but the picture place I normally go to wont take naked pictures. So this is the last month he is able to have them done! So here are the super cute 9 month pictures of my BIG boy! Oh how I do love him so! Even though right now he is climbing up my leg and into EVERYTHING, It brings a smile to my face!

New pics of the big man!

Always the tricky one at bath time! He thinks he is sneaky filling the duck with water and drinking it! Ha ha!
This is the first time that he ate yogart... he was such a sick little boy and the doctor thought it may help his tummy feel better with the antibiotic!
This is the 2nd time he ate the yogart... he is such a happy little boy! My pride and joy!
This is Grayson with my cousin, his 2nd cousin Amanda that was home from college and we went to visit! 
This is from Grayson's first Easter! He loved the eggs!

Up-dates... and what's going on!

Hello... well I know that it has been a little while since I wrote what all was going in in Grayson's World but we have been so busy!

Well Grayson has been a VeRy sick little boy! Last Saturday before Easter we ended up back at the doctor's office once again... we have been going every 2-3 weeks now since January... and we were once again back there after he started to run a silly fever on Wednesday night... that would come and go till Friday he got really bad that if the doctor had not been opened we prob would have ended up in the ER cause he was a sick little boy! Well when we got to the doctor he had been breathing very rapidly and shallowly which was very concerning, he was running his normal high fever, throwing up, and in general just YUCKY! I just knew the ear infection did one of two things, since we just finished his last set of antibiotics on Monday and started to get sick again on Wednesday I just knew the ear infection was there! When Dr.H came in the room she is not our normal doctor, but she is awesome she started to talk to him and listen to his chest and see how labored his breathing was and she immediately was very concerned! She ended up checking his oxygen level which was a lot lower than it should have been, and drew some blood! We ended up doing a breathing treatment while the blood ran and she made her decision to send us up the the hospital for suspected pneumonia or if we could stay out of the hospital! Well after his breathing treatment was done, the blood work was not as bad as she first thought it would be, and his oxygen level was starting to come up so we instead of starting another set of antibiotics we started antibiotic shots! His ears were REALLY inflamed and infected and he has an infection of the bronchiols! So we were sent home on Saturday to come back on Monday for another shot if his ears were still gross and we started home breathing treatments! Well it took till Sunday for me to become more comfortable with his breathing and not be so worried about him, but he was still a sick kid! Well back to see Dr. H on Monday for her to come in and look at his ears... still infected... and his lungs were still wet and crackly sounding so we were told to come back Tuesday! And Grayson got yet ANOTHER antibiotic shot! One good thing did come out of the Monday visit I finally got my ENT consult for Grayson! I hated to start the ENT route... but I am so tired of him and these silly infections! So next tuesday we go see Dr. J which I am hoping he is going to say he will just grow out of these infections and he doesn't need tubes in his ears, BUT everyone that I have talked to about the tubes say they make a world of difference in the kids! So we will see what the decision will be after we talk next week! 

Well... other than Grayson being sick lots has been going on!

First Grayson is officially crawling like a big boy now! He still gets lazy and will drop down and "Army man" crawl... just cause it is faster... but he is able to crawl on all 4! It is SO cute! He also is pulling himself up on EVERYTHING! He walks around stuff... and if you really help him he will attempt to walk... but I don't know if I am ready for that yet! He is getting just SO big! I am in awe! He is just SO active! I can't believe that he is moving so much! 

He is still NOT talking which I am sad about... but at the same time he is VERY verbal in other ways! He gets his message across when he wants something at least to me! He is such a momma's boy! I can't wait till the first time that he says momma... BUT at the same time... I love my little boy and he will talk when he is good and ready! Ha ha!

Well.... I don't have my camera... but I will post new pics tomorrow! He is just getting so big! I can hardly believe it! He is becoming my big man!

Well tomorrow Grayson will be 9 months old! Only 3 more months and he will be a year!
