Cooper and The Weekend

Scott was gone to Houston all week. He came back Thursday night thank goodness. It was a long night! Cooper had gotten a cold on Tuesday and was just kind of stuffy. I did not know if I should take him to the Doctor or not. Thursday night I put him down for bed and he would not stay asleep in his bed or in the bouncer. He was so stopped up he could not breath. It was so sad! I had to hold him upright on my chest from 8 until about 10 when Scott got home. We fed him and he would not go to sleep. At about 11 he threw up and would not take anymore to eat. Scott and I took turns walking him around because if you sat down he would cry. Finally at 12 I went to bed and woke up at 2 and took over. I fed him and he finally went to sleep at about 3. I put him down in his bed and the threw up again. I was getting worried. I slept with him on my chest until 6 that morning when he woke up to eat. He ate and threw up again. I was worried about him getting dehydrated since he had not kept anything down. We went to the doctor Friday at 11 and he has a bad ear infection which was probably making him sick along with all the drainage. This is his second ear infection. I always had ear infections and they say they are genetic. He is still pretty stopped up and hates having his nose aspirated. He keeps waking up at night because he can't breath. He has been sleep in bed with us propped up.
Scott parents and grandma came down for the weekend and we had a get together with them, his sister, brother in-law, and Jason and Mandi (Scott's friends from college) on Saturday night. We cooked hamburgers and cheese fries and had a great time. We enjoyed the weekend with everyone.

Poor Thing! Yall are troopers! I would have been worried sick too! That has to be hard not knowing what is wrong. I'm glad everything is okay. He looked so happy to be with his family!

So on Sunday, I couldn't figure out why my arms were so sore...I know you told me those those exercises with Cooper were difficult, but I definately wasn't expecting that! No wonder you got back in shape so fast! Thanks for everything, we had a lot of fun!
