The Life of Stephen

So what does a dad do while he’s on vacation? Printout a larger than life poster of his sons head of course. While Stephen was playing at grandma’s house I printed out this poster consisting of 30 letter sized sheets of paper making up an image of his head. He probably doesn’t know what he’s looking at but he definitely stares at it and laughs. It’s pretty funny I must say.

Well it seemed like any other Saturday of a three day weekend, some family coming into town and everyone looking forward to some relaxation. Until we tried to give Stephen some formula. Mom has been under the weather lately so she had had a hard time keeping up the food supply for Stephen. So we tried some formula - BIG MISTAKE. We had another throwing-up repeatedly scenario and a dehydrated and listless baby at the end of it. So off to the emergency room again and to make a short story of it, Stephen is allergic to baby formula. We went through the whole IV, blood test, x-ray scenario all over again. Very similar to last time except that there was no obstruction this time.

So, Stephen was kept overnight to get some fluids into him and get him hydrated again and he came home yesterday afternoon. So today mom, dad and Stephen are all relaxing and catching up on their sleep. Happy Labor Day everyone!
