Jeff, Max, Wes, Rex, and I enjoyed some company this afternoon when Molly and Ivy came over for a play date.  Well, I should clarify – Max, Wes, and Ivy had a play date (with occasional run-by from Rexy), and Jeff, Molly, and I had brunch (with MIMOSAS – YUM).  It was an emotional weekend for me (long story), so it was really nice to unwind with a good friend and get a little buzz while doing so!

Team Weemmax Is Back Again!!!

January 20, 2010 at 11:15 am

Hello everyone, it’s that time of year again!  The 2010 March for Babies is only 94 days away.  Last year, we had an amazing run of donations totaling over $1135!!  We would love to break that mark this year, but of course any amount helps.  Our good friend, Ivory, whose daughter, Emma, was born at 29 weeks, walked with Team Amazing Emma in 2008, and Team Weemmax in 2009.  She was kind and generous enough to organize a team in honor of all three of our little miracles for last year’s March for Babies, so this year we decided to continue the tradition.

As per usual, we don’t want anyone to feel obligated to donate – but if you would like to virtually “march alongside” Team Weemmax, please use the March for Babies widget in the sidebar.  For every dollar we raise, the March of Dimes donates 77 cents to this very worthy cause.  If you are in the Denver metro area and would like to physically march alongside our Team, please use the Contact Us tab on the toolbar, and we’ll make it happen.  The walk takes place this year on April 24^th (two days before the boys’ due date, and two months after their first birthday), at Civic Center Park.

Hopefully the weather holds up this year so that we can actually do the walk.  Last year is was cold and rainy, and we felt it was best to keep the boys sheltered since they had just been discharged from the NICU.

Emma, Max, and Wes, and their families thank you so much for your support!!!

Eleven months old!!!

January 16, 2010 at 9:33 pm

(adjusted age is 9 months)

Oh, our silly boys!  Trying to get them to sit still for two seconds is virtually impossible, so I just picked two and called it a day.  Both Max and Wes are feeling much better, but the bad news is now Jeff is getting sick – and he blames it on our little “snot faucets”.  Nice.  =)

One more month…

Update on M&W

at 11:25 am

Wes felt really warm when he woke this morning, and we took his temp – it was 101.2, so back to the pediatrician we went.  Along with having RSV, our poor little dude has a double ear infection, and his temp was up to 102.3 (just two hours later).  Thankfully, Max’s temp is staying down (when the doc took it, it was 99), and there are no signs of an ear infection.  Dr. N sent us home with a Rx of antibiotics twice a day (bubblegum flavored!), and alternating Motrin and Tylenol to try to coax the fever down. 

Now we wait.

If Wes’s temp starts climbing slowly (or fast, for that matter), and it gets near 104, we skip the pediatrician and go straight to Children’s Hospital (which thankfully, is literally right down the street from us).  Of course we’re hoping we won’t have to go this route, but I’m scared.  Really scared.  The only thing that’s really calming me down right now is the fact that Wes’s oxygen saturation was at 95%, which is CRAZY good for having RSV along with another infection.

Please, please, please say a little prayer that our little Weston is going to be okay.  I seriously don’t know if I can handle him (or Max for that matter) being in the hospital again.

I’ll update later today…
