Toby is here!

Auntie Iris had Toby this evening. ManyCongratulations, Auntie Iris and Uncle Johnny! Congratulations on becoming a big brother, RJ!

Vikki started the day for Cupcakes, Kiersten and Mia with story time. Cupcakes had a good morning but a really rough afternoon - cried on and off. When Mama got there to pick her up, she was having tummy time. Cupcakes did not eat or nap much today. She cried every time she coughed after we got in the car. Ahma wanted Mama to give her something to prevent the situation from becoming too serious. Mama turned around on the way home and picked up something homeopathic from PCC. Of course on the way home Mama panicked and called both Auntie Jeannie to see what she gives her kids and suggestions on over the counter medication and Auntie Boo for suggestions on additional natural remedies. Cupcakes was patient for Mama and Daddy to have washed her butt, changed her diaper, washed her hair, changed her onesie twice and put on a fresh outfit. Within an hour's time after Cupcakes got home and went to bed she had three doses of the homeopathic remedy and stopped coughing when she had been coughing about every ten minutes during the hour. (Mama was able to give Cupcakes the remedy without waking her up. It's funny how tightly she keeps her mouth shut when she sleeps.) She did not cough for another hour and half after that. Mama and Daddy also turned on the humidifier for her for the first time. She had coughed a little bit and slept a lot better when she slept in Mama and Daddy's bed last night. Tonight she's able to sleep in her crib. We hope that Cupcakes will feel better soon!!

Vikki's husband had a liver transplant last year, and fluid is accumulating in his stomach. It happened once last month and happened again over the weekend. Please join me in praying for a great recovery. Thank you!
