All is well

Keith was discharged last Friday and things have been just perfect. It's like he was never sick. Back to normal!

He is definitely being a 2 Year old!

The tantrums are unbelievable! He is learning what time-out is for sure!



We have a lot of doc appointments next week, so I'll update then...

In the hospital, First time in OVER a year

As you know if you have been following, baby Keith had his 2nd dialation last wednesday for his airway. Well, on Thursday night he got very sick. He had a LOT of vomit and diareaha all over himself & crib early friday morning. He was running a temp but not an alarming temp. He slept on & off on friday but seemed to be improving. Actually on Saturday we thought he was completely back to himself & 100% ok, must've just been a bug he caught maybe at the hospital. In fact he was playing, eating fine, went for a walk with us, very normal saturday we thought, hes ok.
Then today he was quite "junkie" in his airway/breathing, some blood from his trach during routine suctioning when he woke this am. He didnt seem to want his breakfast but ate it as we encouraged him to. He was very sleepy and fell asleep in his playpen at 11am, 2hrs before his normal nap time. He woke about 130 very much in respritory distress, coughing, gagging, very junkie. He was VERY hot when Kevin picked him up. We checked his temp, and his fever was back and worse than h is temp was on friday. It was 105.3 rectal. Anyhow we all packed up and went downtown to Univ. of Maryland E.R. where he knows the place well by now, and they all know and love him there too. After 1 hr in E.R. we were told he had Pneumonia in his right lung, probably due to him vomiting on thur. night, aspirated an
and pneumonia set in. We were told it was normal that perhaps the tummy bug he had he WAS better by fri night and saturday. But, the pneumonia symptoms take a couple days to show up. We spent 5 hrs in E.R. then was moved into IMC. He seems to be improving some already with the antibiotics and care hes recieving.
Mommy is staying with him all night at the hospital.

Save The Internet!

Supposively, congress is trying to pass a bill that will allow our internet companies to say WHERE we can go and what we can do on the net! WTF!?Sign the bill now to stop this!http://savetheinternet.com/

4th Of July was great, except for the rain

We ended up spending the day at the Dundalk Heritage Festival. It was pretty nice, but the all of the things we planned on doing there, kinda went down the drain. The carnival looked like it was from the 1950's--- and soooo unsafe. We opted to just not do the carnival part.
We walked around alot, and later in the evening it rained.

Finger Painting was a big Hit!

I wasn't sure how Keith would react to finger paint because he has a lot of sensory issues--- but he enjoyed it! He really liked smearing it all over his body too. Thank goodness we played outside with it!
He loved rubbing it in his hands like lotion. He had more fun putting it on himself, then putting it on the paper-- but atleast he was enjoying it!
