Huffenpuff

That is the name of Tegan's new nebulizer... though the mask he's using is the dragon mask; kinda like Puff the Magic Dragon now that I think about ityes the T-ster will now be taking neb treatments 3x day for the next week or so to help the wheezing he's been experiencing with his cough. No pics of Tegan taking a treatment yet (as he's only had 2) but he's done relatively well considering we have to strap a face mask over an infant and make him breathe in a kinda strange tasting mist for 10 minutes or so... here's a few pics from the website of the product distributor/manufacturer (http://www.thenebdoctors.com/).
They did weigh him at the doctor's office today. He was just shy of 25 pounds, but he did have a wet diaper on, so I'm guessing 24 1/2 or so lbs... haven't checked to see what percentile that is.

In other new, Tegan is now spiritually cleansed. Yesterday he was baptised at the church we've been attending, Shepherd of the Lake, in Prior Lake. It was really cool that our entire immediate family was able to attend (my parents, Brendan's parents, my sis, ALL of Brendan's siblings including his/my brother-in-law and niece).

Well, that's all for now. Take care and God bless!

love to all!

Congrats on Tegan's baptism--that's such a special event! Steven had to use a nubulizer last year at this time (he was about 4.5 months). I could hear some wheezing when he breathed but that was it. We only had to use it for 3 weeks and it knowcked it out. Originally, the ped. said he might have asthma but turned out that he just needed a little extra help knocking somthing out of his chest. I'll pray it's the same for T. Those breathing treatments are no fun meanwhile though- I had to basically hold Steven down for his because he was so young and fought the mask.
