Okay so I am so far behind on my updates, Zeke and I have been so busy with so many different events so I am trying to put most of it on here. I am starting with one of the latest events. We are starting with his first T-Ball game. He is on the team called the Giants!
Zeke's first T-Ball game.
Here he is playing 3rd base, bored!
Third base again (I think)
Zeke learning to ride his bike without training wheels
Here he is doing good!
Mark, at our first practice game!
Zeke learning how to throw better. Looks like he's a natural!
He is learning how to catch the ball from the grounder. It was so much fun watching him learn all of this more and more!
The first meeting of the team
So much rain! Rain Rain go away! Love the moisture, but I need it to stop!
Okay so this brid we found in our driveway, drowning in a puddle and not flying. So of course I had to try to rescue it, and we all had dun holding it.
Zeke loving it, he made it the cutest picture thinking that it would help it, too bad when we woke up in the morning it had died.
So this is our first camping trip to my Dad's Steak camp property. This was definitely camping. We had problems with the water, RAIN! Let's say Rain, Rain Rain. But Zeke had so much fun. He became a Smore junky! We had smores the night before, the next day at least two or three times. It reminded me of Christmas morning with him. HE was the best! He reminded me of all of the fun I had as a kid camping and all of the fun I want to have with Zeke now he is at this age.
Ty and Zeke in our Tent! Ty loved this tent! He had so much fun also!
Zeke eating his first smore, like I said earlier he got addicted fast! I have to admit, It's well worth all of the life decisions / challenges when you just sit back and watch your child smile over the simplest things in life.
Thanks Zeke for making me so happy and blessed!
I know I am so mean - taking pictures of him while he is sick in the hospital! This was before they put the fluid in - they started the pick line and then drew blood then of course started the medicine later with the fluids. He was so sad! My heart just ached for him! I was so scary!
Begging to go home!
Okay so last night we had a scare that a mother should not have. Zeke woke up from a nap with a fever of 106. I was so scared, so we rushed him to St. Mark's hospital (1st mistake) than luckily his fever was down a few degrees when we got there. It had dropped to 103.5. I had cool air on him in the car. So they gave him some Tylenol and Motrin and his fever only came down to 102.3, but at least it came down. So then Mark and I said we just paid $75 for them to give him Tylenol and Motrin. Well eventually, they came in and finally ran some tests and couldn't fine anything. HE was so mad, because they gave him an IV and he DID NOT like the shot of all that going into his poor sweet little arm. I was trying to bribe him, take his mind off of it. It was so hard. But finally literally we were there for 5 hours, but the ER doctor had to call the pediatrician's office and of course had to talk to the on call doctor, which he is the one who finally gave her instructions on what to do. (Another RED flag - when the ER doctor has to call someone else to find out what to do...Run) Anyway so at the end of the night poor sweet Zeke had enough and was so tired. One of the good things they did was give him fluids (that's what took the fever down to 99.9) and give him an antibiotic.
So today we have been watching him like crazy and praying for him to do better. HE still has a high fever and now is in bed sleeping, but it's so hard to watch him be so sick and not know what to do. I am so thankful though for all of the love and support we have felt today (Sunday) from all of our sweet friends in the Ward. Thank you! Tomorrow we go see his pediatrician. Yeah!!! Hopefully for them to help us. I am really just grateful that it wasn't worse.
