Holidays

The holidays!!! One of my most favorite times of the year. Its a time to spend with family and see the joy on little peoples faces and watch them grow and enjoy all the new things they have to experience. This year my family will have thanksgiving a day early due to my mom and myself both having to work on thanksgiving. It works out perfect though because Ryan will be taking Matt down to his great grandparents in Clarkston then over to Montana to see his aunt and new cousin. Although i'm super sad to not be able to go it will be nice for Matt to spend some time away from me and actually bond with his other side of the family and get to know them without me there. Oh i just love the holidays. I have a HUGE family so it was always so much fun during the holiday season to have everyone together and just spend time and play with them. Getting older it was always nice to visit and catch up on all the things that have gone on and you never really have time to talk to them and find out all the things that have been going on in thier lives. Oh the holidays!!

So Matt is sick again. Horrible cough, fever, runny nose the works. I feel so bad for him. There is only so much that you can do. I had to go buy a new humidifier and Matt really likes that and we got him a face mask for his breathing treatments. At night i have been giving him albuteral to open up his lungs. I have found that if you start before it gets bad, well then it doesnt get bad. He sleeps much better and seems to have an easier time breathing at night and it just makes everyones lives a little easier. HOWEVER it has been sooo rough with ryan being out of town. I have been going to school, new job at work figuring out Matts schedule and with him being sick....its super rough. I give credit to all those single single single parents who have NO help from family or have a good support network. Its so rough just with my mom helping and my sister too so i can only imagine not having any help. Im so very thankfull for taht.

Other than that there really hasnt been much going on. Just waiting for the snow to fall and semi getting ready for christmas. I have my list so now its just a matter of time to get it all done and have all those things crossed off.
