My Boys!


Boe was able to hold Porter today for the first time! He was a little apprehensive about it at first but it only took a moment for him to really love it! Porter loved being held by Daddy! He maintained his oxygen saturation better then he did all day for the time he was holding him! In fact, he was doing so good they let him hold him for an extra half hour! (Mommy was incredibly jealous!)
These are Porter's cute little piggies! It's hard to see in this picture but he had them tucked in so cute under Daddy's arm!

Family kiss! Boe couldn't reach Porter's head to give him a kiss so I kissed Porter's head & Boe kissed my cheek! HaHa... kinda funny how that turned out!
BEWARE MAN HAIR! I had to share this picture because it's just too sweet to keep to myself! Look how cozy Porter was all snuggled next to Daddy!
Porter has been really fluctuating with his oxygen requirements & trying to find where his happy place is. His lungs look like they have some fluid in them, which they suspect in pneumonia. They have been suctioning out his lungs & hope he will be able to recover on his own (while being on antibiotics of course). He has another chest x-ray in the morning so hopefully we'll be able to know a little more about how to help him.
Tonight my amazing friend Megan came to visit! Here's a shout out to her! Megs I love your guts! You have taught me so much about what it takes to be a true friend & you always show how sincerely you love & care about people! I really admire you for that! (Tiff, I love you too! She did tell me you check my blog often! Thanks!:)

Those are just the sweetest pictures.

I want to make dinner for you guys. I know you said you're taken care of, but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt, right? What night would work for you?

Thanks for the encouragement on my blog. I've neglected it for so long, but this is a great experience.
