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.

Infections... again.
So Erik had a doctor's appt. last week and it turns out he has yet another lung infection. This is why when I take him to church, I don't let anyone hold him and he doesn't go in nursery. He gets sick so easily. It may appear that I am selfish by not letting anyone hold him, but he doesn't need the germs, so it's for his protection. Well, I shouldn't say I don't let anyone hold him ever, the 1st two times I took him to church, I let my close friends hold him, but since he has been getting sick so easily, the past few times he has gone to church with me, no one got to hold him. I think I'll keep it that way until he's closer to 1 1/2 yrs. old or when he gets stronger, whichever comes 1st. I visited him tonight, just hung out at my brothers. Erik is such a cutie. I don't want to leave Erik's big brother Justin out. He's a handsome boy too. I love all three of my nephews so very much and I am proud of all of them. But, since this blog is about Erik, he gets mentioned the most. Oh, Erik weighed 9 lbs. 6 oz. at the appt. which is only 2 oz. more than a month ago. They put him on stage 2 baby food in hopes to get him chubbier. Well, that's all for now. Erik is doing okay even with the lung infections. He is on antibiotics again, and is feeling better. Until next time... God bless!
