My 1st Mothers Day


So yesterday was my First Mother's Day and I had to keep myself from crying just about the whole day. I just kept thinking about how long the road was for me to become a mom and then all the obstacles Landon went through to stay here with me. Landon has given me so much strength with everything he has went through. Being a mom is probably the best gift anyone could have ever given me. Each time Landon smiles, or laughs at me melts my heart. I know he loves me and depends on me for everything and that makes being his mother that much more special. I know as he gets older that his dependability will grow less and less and that we will have our ups and downs because that's what mothers and their children do. But in the end no matter what I will still be his Mother! I love you Landon Bryce and I am so Thankful to be your mother! On another note....Landon had his 9month pictures with Mac Brown Thursday and unlike our 6 month these did not go as well. Landon had just woke up and was not in the mood to smile at anyone. At one point he even took up growling to try and get them to stop. We however did reach a milestone while we were there and that was we found our toes. Up to this point Jonathan and I had to put Landon's feet to his mouth but he found them himself and only wanted to play with his feet the rest of the time. Hopefully they got some good ones! We then on Friday went to Dr. Clifford for our 9month check-up. Landon is now up to 19lbs 5oz and 28in long. Overall we are very healthy! The Dr could not hear any wheezing for once and was very pleased with that. We however still have fluid buildup in our ears so we are yet on another round of antibiotics to try and clear that up. Hopefully it will work along with some different things we are trying at home will work. The Dr. did mention that if we continue to have this problem then we would have to discuss tubes. I know tubes are not that serious, but the poor boy has already been through enough and could really use a break from it all. On a negative note.....Landon has figured out that they nurse is not his friend and that she is the one giving him the shots! The poor boy took one look at her and started screaming. Jonathan and I could not put him down the entire visit at the Dr. So not what I wanted to happen. Oh well....We have our monthly visit to Vandy Pulmonology on Friday and can't wait to tell them how well Landon is doing.

I am so happy to here he is doing so well. Happy belated mommy's day girl! Tubes are not that bad but they have a high failure rate. Brody is about to get a second set....:(. I will pray his ears clear on their own. Hope all goes well at Pulmo.

Aw...I'm so glad he's doing so well!! That is great! Your doing a great job as his Mommy. I don't know if I could have done what you have and gone through what you have. I'd like to think that I'd manage, but I'm not so sure. Let's hope I don't ever have to find out!! Hunter had tubes put in his ears about a year or so ago and he was running around the house playing within a few hours!! It has helped him a ton!!
