Apparently e-mail is "old school." Who knew? So, here it is....our family blog. My hope is to post at least once a week. We will see. On with the first post....
Bad News First:
I had to take Parker to the doctor on Friday. We found out that he has RSV. I had no idea that this even existed or that it was very dangerous for infants. Parker was in the very early stages of the illness. We caught it early and we are so thankful! I must admit I was completely overwhelmed. I knew that my instincts were telling me that Parker wasn't acting right. I was NEVER expecting this though! Praise the Lord Granmamma (Mrs. Ann) lives 5 minutes from us and could go with me to the doctor. She had to show me how to use the breathing treatment machine and remind me of what all the doctor said when we got home because apparently I totally "zoned out" at the doctor's office. My mind couldn't process everything fast enough. I've dreaded the day Parker got sick since I lay eyes on him....I never imagined it would be this soon! We are not sure how he contracted this illness since we really haven't left the house much!

Good News:
Mamaw came!!!!!!!!!! When you are sick, you want your mamma. When your baby is sick, you want your mamma. She came down Saturday morning and got us through the rough part. Parker is feeling much better and his breathing is back to normal. He is still coughing up stuff, but that is good! We are hoping that each day he will feel better.
