Long overdue!

Well the last week and a half have been quite eventful for us!! I spent Matts spring break in Ephraim with my family since Matt went to Vegas to sell. We had so much fun! On Saturday the 14th. my mom, me , aunt Lisa and Cort all got together for a girls day!! Cort is going to have her baby while we are gone and so it was good to get together since we havent in way to long.. We got massages and mani/pedi's it was so much fun and a very good day to realx! Well Carter got sick that night. He had a fever the night before but was good all day so i figured he was ok. On our drive back to Ephraim he got sick again.. So we ended up taking him to the ER when we got back to Logan... He had RSV!! I was so sad.. He had to go in the hospital on Monday..
this is what he looked like when he first got in the hospital.

It just broke my heart cause if you know Carter he doesnt EVER sit still!
So it was sad to see him so lifeless..
They had the cutest little hospital gown for kids.. It was so tiny but so sad that he was in a hospital gown.
He kept the oxygen in his nose which i was happy about i didnt think that would ever happen.

On tuesday he tried to fill better by sitting up but that is all we got! He just layed there most of the day watching movies.. But he was such a good boy! I was so proud of him!

He loves ice! He was in Heaven cause he just got to lay there and eat ice all day!

I love the sleeping pictures!

We finally got to bring him home with oxygen on Wed afternoon.. He was feeling a lot better but not totally breathing 100% yet.. He would just run as far as the oxygen would let him..

But even with the oxygen he was still such a happy boy!!
I love this kid!!! He is the BEST!!!

We had his follow up appointment today and i am glad to say he is totally off the oxygen and all better. yay!!! He was so funny when the doctor told him he was ok he said "YES!" it was dang cute... Since the oxygen has been off he has been running in circles all over the house non stop.. He seriously ran for an hour non stop... Im glad to see we have our little boy back!!!
We love you Carter!!!

What a sweet boy! I can't imagine seeing my child that sick and I don't ever want too. I'm glad to hear that he's running around again. Hopefully this crappy weather will get better and all the illnesses will go away!!!

HI! So I know this is so random but I look at your blog sometimes and I wanted to tell you that your cousin Cortney is one of my friends here in Cedar. Cortney and Ammon were in mine and Kurt's algebra class last semester and she's in my education classes this semester. So we've become pretty good friends. She loves your family! Anyways i'm sorry to hear about your little guy that's scary so I hope he makes a full recovery.
