Memorial Weekend




We have had a great weekend so far. Saturday we went Frisbee golfing for a bit and played outside. Today Zach had a bike race in Frankfort. So, we watched him. Cameron and I ran around while he biked. Cam's little friend Bodie was there, so they got to play together a little bit. Cam liked running around the baseball area and going in and out of the dugout. He got a little wheezy there today, but it's seemed to clear up. He actually ate a sandwich this afternoon, which is amazing. He's so picky. There is nothing easy to take when we're out, but today he ate it just like a sandwich, it made me so happy!! After his LONG nap, we went to the pool. He doesn't have a float right now, but he can stand in the little baby pool. He tried to run and fell down face first and scared himself (and us too). We were right there, but it's so scary. He was nervous after that. He liked sitting on the side of the pool with us, throwing his toys in, and then going in to get them out and getting back up on the side again. After the pool, we went to "The Barrel of Fun" and had some soft serve, which he loved!! Who knows what we have in store for tomorrow. I wanted to sign Cam and I up for a swim class this summer, but I still have two and a half weeks of school left and they all start now, so I'd have to do Saturdays and we are going to miss half of them with things that are already planned. So, we may have to wait until next year to do it.

Baby 2 @ 13 and a half weeks



Doc Appts

Well, we just ended up talking with Cameron's doc on the phone and they want to put him on Omnicef before we go to the Levaquin. So, we're going to try that starting tonight. He was in such a horrible mood today. I'm hoping it gets better as the steroids get out of his system. We had my ultrasound today and it went well. The baby was moving all around. It was so cute. We saw both legs and feet, both hands and arms. I will try to get Zach to scan a pic to put on here. They said my new due date is around November 20th. I am now a little over 13 weeks. The amnio is June 18th. Gotta go, Cam's screaming....

"Cookie"





This weekend flew by! I had no time to get more pics up from the walk, so I added a few more today. I also put a short video of Cameron. He's starting to try to say new words and repeat the things we say. We taught him to say, "that" and "more," but today I asked him to say cookie (it was the iced animal cookies) and he did. Now, it doesn't sound exactly like 'cookie' but it's pretty cute and he was pretty proud of himself. We all thought it was close enough. By the time I got the video, he was getting sick of them (that's always how it goes, I'm always getting too late by the time I break out the camera). Cameron's doing okay. He still has his cough and he's in a bad mood often the last two days, which I believe is the steroid. He had his last day today and there is no change as far as the cough. He's congested at certain parts during the day, but not always. So, Dr. Eid wanted to try something new if he wasn't 100% or much better, so we'll see what he wants to do tomorrow. I have a doc appt at the OB tomorrow. We have another ultrasound. I'm about 12 weeks now. I'm a little nervous because we always had some kind of bad news for each and every ultrasound during my pregnancy with Cameron, so I hope things go okay. I'm sure they will, I'm just nervous and anxious. I can't wait to see the little one!!

Great Strides Walk 2008





We had a beautiful day for the Great Strides walk. We had friends and family travel from California and the Cinci area and so much support from our local friends!! Once all the money is together, we will have raised about $13,000 this year, which exceeds our goal. We are SO happy!! We'll have to find a way to beat that next year. It has been a very long day, so I'm just going to post the group picture of our walkers...tomorrow I'll try to get some of the cute pics of Cam and the other kids on here. Cam really likes water and there was a playground with water on, so he went straight for it. Some kids got drenched, but we just let Cam get a little wet and then made him get out because I don't want him sick. But, you can see his little shirt I made him this morning in that picture.


Cameron is getting sick again, this time some kind of congestion in his chest. We've increased therapy to every 4 hours an he's on steroids. He didn't sound great this morning right before the walk, but started sounding better and has seemed fine all day with the exception of a little runny nose. So, we're hoping he will be healthy quickly and this won't be like last year at this time. I'll update more tomorrow when I have more time!

Doing Better

Cameron woke up with a slight fever this morning, but it went away and he had a great day! He was in a good mood all day! He was especially talkative today. He said a couple new words...dirt, that, and boat. It is the cutest when he says "dirt."

Sick Cam




I just realized I haven't posted in a while. I've been so busy and not really feeling that well this pregnancy. I was off yesterday and excited to spend the day with Cameron, but he was crying almost all day. Today, he woke up with a temp of almost 104. It's gone down a little with Tylenol, but keeps going to about 104. So, that explains his fussiness. I don't know how he got sick this time, I don't know anyone sick. Zach said some are sick at his work, so maybe that. Could be the grocery store...you never know. I hope he gets better tomorrow and kicks this fast! Here's some pics from last weekend when we went to Grandma and Grandpa Hoeptner's cabin. He loves running around there and yelling because the house is empty and echos.
