RSV, Bronchiolitis, AND Ear Infections

I really have no idea how mothers do this. Especially if you have multiple children. Dawson has been sick for a week now starting with Croup on Monday. By Wednesday, we took him back in and found out that he had the triple threat of RSV, Bronchiolitis and ear infections. My poor baby can't breath, eat or sleep. He is just listless. If you know Dawson, that is SO not like him. He got diarrhea from the medication they gave him for his ear infection. The poor thing was so tired he was trying to lay his head down on the water of his tubby. I believe that we are on top of the diaper rash now. That was horrible! He would poop and scream and take off crawling as fast as he could to get away from what was burning his bottom. Doug and I are both sick now and would like to invite anyone over that would like to come! Wink Wink!

Halloween Pictures that I couldn't resist

Alright I know that I am really late on this one, but how could I not share this cuteness?!?  Dawson and his cousin, Rockwell, were playing around after the pumpkin carving was done.  Dawson was a good sport, but was somewhat embarrassed at how big I had to cut his leg holes.

I have to say the look on his face says it all.  "Mommy, you always clean my butt when it feels like this..."

Pictures with Santa take two!

We had pictures with Santa, but I just really wanted the tradition of going to see Santa at his remote location in South Towne Mall.  Dawson loves Santa.  He just wants to look at him instead of the camera.  The pictures turned out so darling!  I just love that kid!

A Horseback Riding Lesson

I know that this was a long time ago, but how can pictures this cute not be posted?  My brother, Coy, has horses and so we took Dawson riding when he was six months old.  He did great!  I think his mother may have been a whole lot more nervous than Dawson was.  He had a great time cruising up Rose Canyon on the mountain trail that Coy loves so much.  We rode for about two hours before Dawson was done!  He was absolutely amazing and made it so that Uncle Coy said he could be his new ridin' buddy!  Man I sure love that kid!!!
