Unfortunately Buxton turned 7 months a little under the weather. He's had a stomach virus for 1.5 weeks and is still pooping like crazy. We hope to have the culture results back tomorrow but no matter what has there isn't anything we can do about it but wait most likely. On top of the stomach problems Buxton also has Croup and fevers as high as 102.5. This is a common viral infection of the larynx and has this baby sounding like a seal when he coughs and wheezing as he breathes. It breaks my heart to hear his cough cause it sounds so horrible. The Dr. gave us a steroid to treat this so I'm praying that works quickly.
The picture is of Buxton and Ben napping together today. Buxton barely slept last night cause he felt so bad and Ben worked 16 hours on both Friday and Saturday so needless to say these boys are exhausted. I am as well and napped a little today, but took some time to go on a nice walk with the dogs this afternoon. The sun was finally out and the sky was blue-bird with the most beautiful clouds....majestic clouds that God certainly hand sculpted. As we walked the sun, breeze, and fresh air felt like God's arms wrapping around me. This was much needed with all the worrying over the baby and exhaustion from taking care of him these last few days. God is good and gave me just what I needed today so that I can get Buxton through this and well again.
Blessings to all
Kristin

Poor Buxton and poor Kristin. I hope he feels better soon. You are doing a great job taking care of him and he is so blessed to have you as his momma.
