Baby Thumpy!!

I was trying to get my little man into his vest and he handed me Raine's baby - "No Mommy!! Baby thumpy!! Baby nebby!!"  He went so far as to try to get out of his vest and put it on the baby.... Oh, I love this little man. He keeps me on my toes.  He's decided now, when he does his morning treatments, he doesn't want to sit on my lap after he's done with the nebby - which is good that he's moving around and exerting his lungs more.

Saxy with his bear and Raine's baby.

That bug he had took a little while to let go.  He was getting better, then got worse, coughing, fever, not eating, lethargic.  We had to make another trip up to see the PA, and made a call to Vicki to keep her posted since we had no idea of what was going on.  Thankfully we didn't have to go back to Mayo!!  They figured it was just a virus that was hanging on a little longer than normal.  He got his appetite back for a few days.  Now it's been 3 days since he's eaten a good meal - it was lunchtime on Monday when he ate a full meal.  It's frustrating, especially since it's so important for him to put on the weight!!!!  I'm hoping that it's a 'stage' and that he'll outgrow it soon!!!!

We have 2 weeks until Sax's next appt in Rochester.  And 2 weeks until Daddy gets his CF tattoo :-)  He's really excited about it - wanted to be sure he gets it before the Walk on May 7th!  I'm not even positive what it's going to be - don't know if he does either - just know he has the time scheduled. Mommy already has a Saxy/CF tattoo....

When it was fresh - purple rose for CF, 4 leaf clover for my little Irish man.

Our fundraiser is all planned - just need to get the posters made now and start hanging them up :-)  We are serving Sloppy Joes at the Aragon Dart Tournament 11am-5pm on Saturday March 5th.  The price is $3.50 for a sandwich, potato salad, and chips and $2.00 for each additional sandwich.  All proceeds benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. We are still looking for volunteers for 3 hour shifts - 11-2 or 2-5.  Please contact me if you would like to help serve or hang posters!!

The Great Strides walk is coming up on May 7th at 9am.  We walk rain or shine.  We have Strides for Sax team t-shirts available for anyone who is interested in walking.  You can register by visiting our Great Strides website.
