Thanksgiving

Happy late thanksgiving everyone! I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving, we sure did! Even though Payton had a rough day we seemed to manage and get everyone fed and happy. Lol. We started the day by going to my grandma's and eating dinner with my family. We had a great meal but seemed to loose track of time and the food wasn't quiet ready until about 1 or so. so by that time Payton was past hungry and moved on to tired. After getting Payton to nap and feed we tried to take a few family photos to remember the holidays.

 He is getting so good at walking now! We are up to5-6 steps(:

Yes I know the drool is horrible! He is soaking right through the bibs..

Grandma gave us this awesome activity to work on that she got from the school. It's something I remember doing as a kid. It was just a brown paper bag cut into a vest, I knew Payton wouldn't be able to wear it but I figured he would have fun painting it.. and boy did he!

We had so much fun this past weekend. Chad got to take off the three days of studying and we cherished that so much! Payton loves getting quality Daddy time.. I don't mind it either(: I just can't believe how big my little boy is getting to be either. He is so close to walking and is now answering everything you say with a uh huh or a no head shake lol.

On another note I am so proud of myself for getting all my Christmas shopping done on Black Friday! Yes it was a long night but so worth all the money I saved(: Now if we could get through these two weeks of finals we will be doing GREAT!

Nothing New Here.

  I think it has been almost a month since my last post. That's sad, but honestly nothing new has really happened (at least nothing good) Payton went back into the hospital on Saturday. He has had a cold and bad cough for a few weeks now but I figured it was the weather change and was justing giving him OTC medications. Well Friday morning he developed a horrible rash on his face and it started to swell. I gave him some benadryl after calling the pedi who was out of town but all it did was bring the swelling down. This rash kind of worried me but I figured it was something he had eaten (but I couldn't figure out what) Saturday he woke up and during breakfast the rash got worse again and he started vomiting horribly. I then decided it was time to take him to the ER. The ER ran all kind of X-rays and test on him and started to get concerned on why he can't seem to stay healthy. They ended up keeping us from Sat until Monday to monitor him and run more tests. They said the rash was viral and that all of his sinus's were blocked up. He is probably going to be a sensitive kid with higher allergy problems than most. But there is something that has been causing his sinus's to flair up causing him to get so sick. They put him on antibiotics and said to cut out all straight dairy to see if thats whats causing it, and to give him only warm food and drinks (room temp). Chad and I also decided to go ahead and take him out of daycare due to all the sickness running through there daily. Obviously Payton's immune system can't take it. It has been a long few days and I'm extremely exhausted. I really want to know what needs to be done to keep him healthy:( 

  Anyways, Thats the most exciting thing that has happened in the past month. Oh and Payton finally has his surgery scheduled for next month! I am SO nervous about him being put under but they say he should only be out about 3 hours. Here are a few cute photos I couldn't resist putting up!(:

 Payton loves making a mess after Mommy cleans!

At the doctor getting evaluated for our surgery!

And YAAYY I got my tree up!! I love it. It's our first year to have a full tree! I know the ornaments kinda stink right now but we had to buy all new ones that were safe for Payton if he pulled them off so we are just buying a few at a time. ( Man those things are expensive)
