My sick baby

Colton has rsv. He has a horrible cough and an infection in his airways. (bronchitis)
He has to take an antibiotic and a steroid. We have to give him a breathing treatment every 4 hours. It's horrible. I hate that he's sick and it makes me so nervous. I will keep everyone updated on how he's doing.
Yesterday he said mama for the first time. It was the cutest thing. Josh asked him if he's ready for a nap and he answered with mama. I keep trying to get him to say it again and he just smiles at me.
Well that's all I have for now. I will blog again in a few days.

I know I keep saying that I am going to blog more. I really am trying my hardest to. I just forget about it. Sorry to the few that read it.
Not much has been going on here. Colton is getting so big. I will post pictures soon. We might take some Easter pictures this weekend. They're going to be so cute.
My parents will be down to visit tomorrow night. I am so excited to see them. It feels like it's been forever but it has only been a week. I miss them so much. We have been going up there every other weekend and it is hard on us. Colton always ends up sick and it's just rough. So I'm glad my parents are making a trip down here. Hope it's not too hard on my mom though.
Josh has been working 12 hour days, noon to 12. I don't like it because it makes me have a long and boring day when he's not here. It will be nice to have a little more money though!
I went and registered for classes yesterday. Most of the ones I need to take, I'm not able to. The schedule just wouldn't work since Josh works and I have Colton. So I decided to take 3 classes that should help me get a job. We'll see how that works out.
I was suppose to go to the doctor tomorrow to schedule surgery but the doctor had to reschedule. I go on the 7th now. So I will update you more when I find out something.
I've been trying to lose weight and it's so hard! I do my zumba for the wii every day and I think it's slowly working. I want to start running in the mornings when it gets warm out. I haven't been sleeping much at night so it's hard to get motivated in the morning to workout. I really need to though.
Well that's about it for now. I promise to post pictures soon!!

Here's a few things that have been going on with the Farler family.
Colton had his 6 month checkup tuesday. He now weighs 18 lbs 12 oz and is 27 inches long. He's such a big boy. He had to get his shots and he did not like it. That night he ran a 102.3 fever and ended up with an ear infection the next day so I had to take him back to the doctor. He's on antibiotics now and is back to his normal happy self!
Josh had another test done on his gallbladder and that came back normal. We don't know what to do now because obviously something is wrong. So I guess we'll be making another trip back to the doctor to try something else.
I went to the doctor today and I go back in 2 weeks to schedule a surgery. They think I have endometriosis so the doctor wants to look at my insides with a scope and fix what is wrong if they find something. I'm not looking forward to that. I've never had surgery before and I'm a little nervous about it.
My wedding is now 3 1/2 months away and there's still so much to do. Good thing I have my sister-in-law helping me! I don't know what I would do without her.
Well that's about it. I'll post pictures of Colton later. Sorry I've been a little behind on my blog. But as you can see I've been a little busy with family problems! I'll try my hardest to blog more!

I really need to make the time to blog more. I just keep forgetting about it though!
I got the results of my ultrasound and I have a small cyst on my spleen. I guess it's no big deal though and there's nothing the doctors do for it.
I go next week to see about me having endometriosis. My gynocologist thinks that is what I have so I might have to have a scope sometime soon.
Josh has another test done to see if his gallbladder is functioning or not. Hopefully they get that taken care of soon. All he is able to eat is corn dogs and plain potato chips with ketchup. That would get old really fast!
Colton turns 6 months old on S
unday. I can't believe how fast time is going. Seems like just yesterday we were going to the hospital on labor day to have him! He's so funny. I can't explain his personality. You have to see it for yourself.
