I love my little guy! Here is a sneak peak at what he looks like when he first wakes up in the morning. A little puffy eyed. A bit dazed. But oh-so happy and oh-so cute!
For those who do not know, he has been having some difficulties over the past couple weeks which has led me to hearing those four words that all mothers dread hearing. Primary Childrens Medical Center. Please don't misunderstand. I LOVE that we have so many new techonologies readily available to us. And its so nice that it is relatively close. I just don't want it to be my child going.
Please bare with this as I share. I want this in our family journal so in 20 years if my grandchildren are having similar problems I can pull this out and share it with their stressed out parents.
Paxton woke up last Monday with purple and blue lips. I truly thought that Sean MUST have given him one of those blue dum-dums before he went to bed. It was the only thing that made sense. The blueness was gone within an hour of him running around. It happened again Tuesday morning. The picture above was taken Wednesday morning (of course, very little purple on the day I have the camera!). Two Dr. appointments, an overnight oximeter, an ekg, and lots of labs later, we are being set up with a pediatric cardiologist at Primary Children's Medical Center. Now, before anyone stresses out. The ekg and labs were perfect. Paxton's oxygen levels at night are ickily low and his pediatrician knows that he would be better off with a specialist. The appointment will not be for a few weeks, so please just keep the little guy in your prayers.

I've been thinking about him since Sunday. I'm sorry to hear that a trip to SLC will have to be made. But, like my dad always says when it comes to taking kids to the doctor, better safe then sorry! Let us know if we can do anything to help!
I absolutely agree that it's better to be safe than sorry! Asher blesses Paxton to feel better every night in his prayers :) I love my Paxton and can't wait to see him tomorrow!!!
I'll keep Paxton in my thoughts and prayers! Hope everything goes great! Love your family so much!!!
Oh wow Brooke. You guys have had your share of medical trouble lately! Good luck with the specialist..hope everything goes great for you. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help!
Sad little boy. I will make sure we keep him in our prayers. We love you and cant wait to see you in a couple of weeks again.
Not something any parents wants to go through. We will keep Paxton in our prayers.
