Making Progress

Excuse the ginormous picture of ourselves. I haven't figured out how to fix that yet. But hey, I was able to figure out how to make a post and add pictures. Pretty good, huh? Well, now that things are moving along I guess I'll let everyone know that this even exists. Just know I am still learning and it will hopefully get better as time goes on.
It is our 7th wedding anniversary on Sunday, and Jeff is taking me for a little get away in Park City. Hopefully we will take some pictures of our adventures and I can post them here and tell you about it when we get back. Until then, have fun looking at our huge heads and Hudson's huge hives.

Hudson's Hives


Wednesday morning Hudson woke up with a fever and what I though looked like a little heat rash, so I wasn't too worried. I didn't notice any changes until that night when I was changing him into his p.j.'s. The rash had gotten worse and he had a fever of 102. The next morning he looked awful and I took him to the doctor. The doctor said he wished he had a camera or a medical student to show. The doctor thinks it MIGHT be an allergic reaction to the antibiotics he had been taking for the ear infections he has (in both ears), but wasn't sure since it had been a few days since he had quit taking it. He checked his ears, and neither one had cleared up. So he is on steroids for the hives, another medication for the ear infections, and then I have been giving him Benadryl for the itching, and Motrin for the fever. The doctor wanted to check on him again today and thankfully he looks and feels a TON better! Now if we could just get the ear infections to go away. I have to take him back in in about 10 days to see if they have cleared. If not, it looks like we might get to make a trip to the Ear, Nose, and Throat Dr. Oh the joys.

Hello Blogger

So this is all new and weird to me. I've been a MySpace-er for quite a while now to keep in touch with a few friends and family, but I've decided to go with something a little more family oriented where this will hopefully be more accessible to more friends and family.
As old habits die hard, bear with me as I figure all this stuff out. I will try to get pictures and other stuff up as I learn. But until then, know that we are here and we look forward to sharing our "exciting" lives with you! ~Nichole
