Jonathan

Jonathan is still running fever, after 5 days of antibiotics. I still think that the fever and crankiness and tiredness are caused by the increase in one of his seizure medications. However, before they are willing to go back down to the previous dose, he has to take a round of antibiotics in case it’s caused by an infection. Only the Lord is keeping me sane. I feel bad for Jonathan. There really isn’t much I can do to help him feel better.

Jonathan and his fever

Jonathan has been running a temp around 100 for 2 weeks now. We go to the doctor again tomorrow. Hopefully, they will be able to come up with an idea or we will probably have to start doing tests to figure out why. He is also not wanting to drink as of yesterday. Please pray for him.

Jonathan’s weight

I’m sure most of you know that Jonathan has always had a hard time gaining weight. Especially enough to keep the Endocrinologist from worrying. Well, I just weighed him on the Wii tonight (with Wii Fit Plus). It says that he now weighs a little over 43 pounds. That means that he has gained approximately 2 pounds in the last month or so. I’m very excited. While this means that it will be even harder for me to carry him or pick him up, it also means that he is finally, for whatever reason, starting to gain weight. Woohoo 🙂

Strep Throat

Well, it appears that strep throat is definitely at my house right now. Bryan is on his third round of antibiotics for it. Jonathan has had one round, and might need another. Heather tested positive for strep today.  Thank the Lord, I haven’t gotten it yet. If I don’t get it, it will only be the Lord protecting me as I am now surrounded. Please pray that I keep my sanity 🙂

Hammocks

Who knew how relaxing and enjoyable hammocks can be. Jonathan’s new favorite thing is our hammock. He loves it and will sit out there with us for a good 20-30 minutes before getting bored with it. This is a long time for Jonathan, whose attention span usually doesn’t last more than just a few minutes.
