Not The Plan for Tonight

When he woke up yesterday our sweet babe seemed healthy and happy.
Today he started out with a nasty nose. 
Tonight he will be sleeping in the hospital. 

Unfortunately, it appears that he has RSV (which to an older child would be no thang).  For a young baby it presents itself with very labored breathing requiring oxygen until the gunk passes.  They have also discovered an infected ear and what appears to be viral pneumonia. Poor buddy!

While it was not the kind of quiet I was hoping for this evening, it is very quiet.  So, I'm going to make the best of it by enjoying some one-on-one snuggle time with my baby boy.

  6. Poor little buddy. Give little Gabers a hug from us and tell him to get better soon! Try to get some rest too, and if you get bored heck out the movie chanels. They have a ton of movies and I didn't discover them until an hour before we got discharged! Please let us know if you need anything in the meantime.
