Our little family is pitiful!! It started Christmas Eve when we noticed little Winn’s cough…didn’t sound so hot. Christmas morning we woke up and it had fully developed into a rhythmic, horrible, hack that was choking him. So…off to the emergency room we went. After some blood work, x-rays, and nasal swabs we found out that he has RSV. THANKFULLY we were able to take him home though and enjoy the rest of the Christmas day with the family, considering my grandmother, Winn’s GREAT Grandmother, traveled from Arkansas to meet her first grandchild!! It was a very special time that we will treasure forever!
This was actually before my poor boy was sick, the previous weekend celebrating Christmas with the Rollings. Aunt Keesha had him going, I loved it!!!
This little outfit was Chap's first Christmas outfit when he was born. How sweet that Marilyn saved it??! 
Even though he's sick, he's still pretty darn cute!
Meeting his great grandmother for the first time, I'll cherish it always :)

Winn seems to be doing better. He’s been to the doctor twice since his ER visit. They are confident that his RSV is on the mend, however, our biggest concern now is that he can’t seem to keep his food down. The mucus buildup (sorry if you were eating…) is gagging him, creating LOTS of projectile parties throughout the day. On top of that, his mommy has strep throat…making it difficult to take care of him the way I need to. Luckily, dad is home this week from work and working hard to keep up with us both! :)
We are very grateful to have our little Christmas miracle with us this year for the holidays. While having a sick child in the ER isn’t the ideal way to spend the day, it sure was amazing having him here to celebrate with. He makes everything bigger and better than before and we couldn’t be more grateful to have him in our lives.
