Bryson's first pumpkin carving
Last night daddy & Bryson carved their first pumpkin together. Actually,daddy did most (all) of the work. Bryson put his hand in the pumpkin once and quickly pulled it back out. He did not like the way it felt.Hopefully next year he will be more interested.
Our latest hospital visit
Bryson's eating issues have continued for the past 2 months. At the recommendation of his speech therapist, we went to see his GI specialist last week. She thought given everything that has gone on, it would be best to have an endoscopy done. She said if she couldn't find anything through that, then they would put a PH prob in for 24 hour monitoring and we would have to stay in the hospital. We had this scheduled for Wednesday. We arrived at 9a and of course they were running behind so he didn't go back till about 12:30p. Needless to say we had a tired and very hungry boy by then. Since he couldn't have anything to eat or drink after midnight the night before, we hadn't had anything either and were starving. The procedure itself was quick and she ended up putting a PH prob in, so after recovery, it was off to our room. He was all over that floor of the hospital, in the playroom, in the outside area and back again. He finally crashed at 6:30p Wednesday and I crashed shortly after. The doctor came in Thursday to discharge us and said that thet ests show he has lots of reflux. She has put him on 2 medications. I hope they do the trick and that things improve soon.
Happy Halloween
Sorry I am a little behind on posting about our weekend. We had a great Halloween. I was so excited to get Bryson in his Incredible Hulk costume and start our night. My mom and sister came over and we all took him trick or treating. He quickly got the hang of it and even tried to take more candy out of the bowls people were holding when they opened the door. His basket started to get heavy and I tried to hold it for him, but he refused to let anyone touch it. No costumes scared Bryson. He would even point and laugh at the scary ones. We just took him around the block before we decided to call it a night. It was pretty chilly for a typical Halloween in Florida, so we came home changed him and sat in our driveway to give out candy. He loves smarties candy, so he took everyone he found in my bowl of candy and stuffed them in his pockets, jacket and hands. Finally around 9p, we decided to go in and he crashed as soon as his head hit the pillow.
Last Sunday
Last Sunday Bryson had a busy, but fun filled day. Early in the afternoon we went to a pumpkin decorating party given by one of my mommy groups. Bryson had way to much fun decorating his pumpkin with stickers. I actually had to take the stickers away from him. When we got home, he was showing off his pumpkin to everyone. He was so proud of it.
Later that afternoon, we went to a birthday party at our local bounce place. Bryson had a smile non-stop till we walked out of there. He had so much fun. We also got in there to jump and bounce with him. He has so much energy and he thought he was much bigger than he is. I was exhausted half way through the party.
On Bryson's birthday, we let him open a two gifts. One was a lawnmower from his grammie. The other was a basketball hoop from us. He is getting the hang of gift opening. I can't wait to see how he does at his birthday party on Sunday.

Happy birthday Bryson
Today is my baby's 2nd birthday. I am still in shock how quickly the last year has gone. I would like him to stay this age forever. Does anyone know where the pause button is?
