Bath Time!

I LOVE taking pictures of the boys in the bath tub! It seems like every kid has a couple pictures playing in the tub with their siblings. Look how big the boys are getting. It's crazyness! I told Spencer the other day that our boys are no longer babies. They are true toddlers (this is not me hinting that I need a baby!). Most places we go my hands are empty (besides my Mary Poppins bag! Gotta love it!).

Reece turns 4 tomorrow!
Benson turns 2 in a month and sleeps in the bunk bed with Reece.

This was our first picture. They both are thinking, "OH NO...it's mom again with her camera. She's a crazy lady!"

Little Update:

REECE: I thought we were going to make it through the winter with no Emergency Room visits--but I was wrong. We had to take Reece in Saturday morning because he was at the start of another asthma attack. Luckily-I listened to my instincts (and my Mother calling me every 5 minutes telling me to take him in) and got him some care before it went to south. Its amazing how fast his asthma can go downhill. A couple hours of waiting can be the difference of a 5 hour visit verses a couple days visit. Anyway, his oxygen was at 91 and he was super lethargic and pale. They got us right in, gave him some dexamethasone (super strong steroid which helps with the inflammation) and put him on a continuous albuteral treatment with oxygen for an hour. After 4 hours he was back to normal and was flying his new car through the ER dodging all the nurses in his path. Luckily Dad gave us his I-touch to play with--Reece was happy as a clown and all is well. His asthma is still bothering him, but I'm sure within a couple days it will be gone.

Benson: Benson's BG's have been horrible for the past 7 months. About 2 weeks ago I started losing hope that it would ever get better. I have worked so hard to figure out his body (I check him 11-13 times/24 hours) and it seems like once we get it somewhat working, then he goes through a growth spurt and we are back to ground zero. I have waited to post our news because I didn't want to jinx it and I wanted to make sure it wasn't a fluke--but I can officially say we have figured him out and for once in his life and his BG's are under control. His averages have mostly been in the 200's until now. Check out his new averages:

7 day avg: 149

14 day avg: 159

30 day avg: 187

The only unfortunate news is that every day he has atleast 1-2 hyperglycemia's in the 40-50's. So we will have to make some more corrections and hopefully they won't make him go high again.

Happy Day! Our boys are doing very well and Reece can hardly wait for his birthday party tomorrow! I'm sure I'll have lots more pictures and updates about that!
