The Griffster

Little Griff is a sweet boy... but he has acid reflux and colic so our afternoons/evenings are not always so pleasant. (I feel for you, Jen. I don't know how you dealt with this so well with Bella). Barrett was such an easy baby - I think I was spoiled with the first one.

My chunky monkey already weighs 13 lbs 12 oz. That was last week at a dr appt for the acid reflux issue.

Oh, those rare, yet so precious, first smiles!

Speaking of doctor's visits... Barrett gave us quite the scare this week. I went to wake him up and found him crying and burning up. I put him in a lukewarm bath and he went into convulsions - eyes rolled back in the head and everything. Scared me to death. Grabbed him and called 911. We rode in the ambulance (all three of us) to the ER and his temp wa 102.5 there. I am sure it was higher than that when he woke up. They diagnosed him as having a febrile seizure. I guess this is pretty common for little kids with high fevers, but it scared me bad. He is doing much better now, though, thank goodness! The most scary thing, I think, was that he was just fine the day and night before. The fever came out of nowhere and was his only symptom of illness til he got a runny nose and cough yesterday...
