Just as Bryan is getting over his cold, Christian has started coughing... poor guy... he has never had a cold before and the one going around this part of Oregon is especially brutal. We have taken him to get shots that help prevent him from getting RSV, so we are hoping it will just be a simple form of the common cold.
Along with all of the other millions of things going on, I am now looking for a new job. The coffee shop that I managed had to close it's doors. This economy is just too hard for most businesses to survive. Please keep the owners, six other employees and myself in your prayers as we are all trying to find employment in a town that has been sucked dry.
Christian has been growing like a weed (in my eyes) he is still just over 17 lbs, but he is all attitude! No matter what is going on, he has the biggest smile on his face. He is getting his eye teeth, which have been bleeding anytime he bites in to anything, he has had a fever and runny poop, but that does not keep him from being his usual goofy self. He has discovered that the baby in the mirror is himself! Yay! It is the funniest thing! He loves to kiss himself and make silly faces. He has been sleeping through the night which is awesome. For those of you saying "he's just now sleeping through the night" let me elaborate. Ever since he was born, he has had a feeding tube which we used to feed him throughout the day. At nights, he was hooked to a pump that fed him throughout the night. When the doctors told us that he no longer needed the feeding tube, his little body took about eight months to adjust to not getting food all of the time, so he is finally adjusted! Well, he is starting to wake up, so enjoy some new pictures and keep us in your prayers.
