Easter 2010

Well, as I have hinted in my last few posts, Easter 2010 was quite an eventful day for us. Our actual Easter service we attented was on Saturday night. Our church asked the regular attenders to come that night if it fit into our schedule so that Sunday morning they would have plenty of seats for guests and their families. We were happy to be able to do that and it turns out that if we had not attended that Saturday night service we might've missed it all together.


Saturday night/ Sunday morning around 1:30 a.m. Ross woke up coughing and I went in to check on him. He was not able to breathe normally without having a coughing fit so we gave him some hits on his rescue inhaler and tried the "steam in the shower" trick. Thankfully with Wes growing up having asthma as well, he knew what to do. After not getting the results we wanted (aka him breathing normally) we loaded up and headed to the ER around 1:40. They got him in quickly and gave him an updraft treatment and he started breathing somewhat better. After chest xrays ruled out pneumonia we got some liquid steriods and antibiotics then got sent home (around 4:30 a.m.) to follow up with his Respiratory Therapist and Allergy Dr.

This picture was Saturday night before church

After we were home and able to sleep for a few more hours, the normal Easter morning festivities began....only at a slower pace because running around was NOT allowed for fear of triggering another attack.

His Easter basket from us....he knows the bunny is just a "costume" he says

He got 2 leapster games

A punching bag....which wasn't the smartest idea since he wasn't able to be too active because of the incident.

Looking for eggs

I'm so thankful for this little guy and that God was watching over him that morning!

Happy Easter! (late I know!)
