So Rhodes turned 8 months old on Thursday and wanted to make sure no one forgot it. My mom picked him up about 4:00 from day care and noticed he was making a grunting noise, but didn't think to much about it...They come home and played outside and came in and he starts crying and grunting. She calls me and says there is just something not right. I come home a few minutes later and he is still crying and grunting. I finally decide he is having gas pains. This goes on for a little while, so I call our pediatrician and the nurse immediately calls me back and tells me to get him to an ER that he is not getting enough air...that is why he is grunting...I immediately go over to our next door neighbors who is a doctor and ask him what would he do...so we go the emergency room and Rhodes has a bacterial infection that came on so quick and caused his throat to swell so he wasn't getting enough air...Can you say scary? They gave him some meds and he was instantly better, but we stayed in the hospital just to be sure...
At 8 months you are pulling up on everything, crawling, saying mama and bye bye, you love the dog water and whenever you get into trouble you just turn and smile. You weigh between 18 and 19lbs and love your bottle, your paci and you blankets. You are a sweet child with a wonderful disposition. You also love your sister! You love your baby food and the only thing you will not eat is carrots. Thanks for making our lives better!
