Long Time No Hear Again!!!
OK I apologize for slacking again! This year so far has been so crazy for our family. While Curtis and I were away on the cruise we left Landon with my parents in Florida. Landon got very sick while we were away and had to go to the ER. (Not fun for Nana...) After our return home to Utah about two weeks later Landon caught RSV. He was very sick for about two weeks and lost almost 2 pounds. Curtis and I had many sleepless nights and to help Landon breath we had to go to the ER 3-4 times a day for breathing treatments (Deep suctions and nebulizer treatments) and oxygen. It was like having him in the NICU all over again. So he finally started feeling better and we did really good until Landon got a double ear infection a week later. As a mom I was feeling terrible. What could I possibly do to keep this little man from getting sick all the time?? I didn't understand what I was doing wrong... One more round of antibiotics and he was feeling better. I was happy and so was Landon. One day a few weeks later Landon was just crying constantly. I was very stressed because he had finished his antibiotics for his ears so I thought there's no way he is sick again. I held him and rocked him and sang to him and nothing was soothing him. I went over to my friend Wendi's house to see if Jax could cheer him up. She suggested I take his temperature. I felt awful... his temperature was at 103. So we made another appointment with the doctor. He tested negative for Strep throat, but had puss pockets coating his throat. Another round of antibiotics and he's better! So far we haven't had anything since then. Keep you're fingers crossed!

So... sorry life has been crazy. Doesn't sound like too much fun. Don't worry though I'm sure you're not doing anything wrong. Sometimes things just happen like that! Landon is adorable!
