HOORAY FOR SCHOOL!

It is so good to report that the boys, well at least Ty and Hayes, had a successful first day at school. We managed to get them to their classrooms, fed, dressed, on time and prepared. They seemed to do great and Tyler's teacher reported that he has a strange fascination with hand sanitizer???? Hayes seemed to do okay, but he said he struggled with finding the lunchroom and unfortunately, he wasn't able to find it in time before the lunch bell rang because when I checked his lunch bag, it still contained most of his lunch.:( Other than that, their first day went off without a hitch.
Okay, now for the sad news...Scotty missed his first day of school because he has pneumonia.:( Poor little guy!!!! He got a stomach/cold virus last week, which kind of put a damper on his birthday party. We had had invited some friends over and later that night he spiked a pretty high fever. He seemed to get better throughout the week, but then he got really sick again and by Saturday night Chris and I were both pretty scared because he couldn't breathe very well and I took him to the Urgent Care and they sent me to the Children's Hospital. They kept him most of the night giving him breathing treatments and they finally sent us home early Sunday morning with more breathing treatments, steroids and antibiotics. He still hadn't improved much this morning so I took him to the doctor again and they gave him more breathing treatments and different steroids so hopefully he'll be able to start school by Thursday.
The doctors think this is all related to his asthma and every time he has a viral infection he's really prone to secondary infections, which this time resulted into pneumonia. Our doctor is working on some preventative treatments so this doesn't keep happening! I'm really relieved we have found a great doctor!
