I started this blog when my nephew, Erik, was born prematurely in 2008. This blog is mostly about him. This year, Erik's little brother, Hunter, joined our family, but he only got to stay for a short while. So, I have added my rememberances of him.

Breathing treatments.
Erik now has to have 4 breathing treatments a day. He was diagnosed with Bronchial Asthma. It won't be 4 a day forever, but for now it is. It will be one a day once they get his cough under control. His lungs remind us daily that he is a preemie. He is doing so well otherwise. He weighs 8 lbs. 4 oz. now and is 20.9 inches long. He is FINALLY starting to outgrow some of his preemie clothes. I actually said to my brother the other day "This outfit is too small for him". Soon he will get to wear much cuter outfits and all the 0-3 month stuff I bought him will have to go back to the resale store since it is all summer stuff. He wasn't supposed to be here until May. Oh well. We'll just trade it in for some warm 0-3 month stuff. I keep this blog for Erik so he can read about his journey someday.
