UPDATE!!

Last week Kaysten had to get surgery on his stomach, because he had Pyloric Stenosis. He gave us a good scare. I took him into the hospital Monday- not having any idea what was wrong with him. All I knew was we had tried multiple formulas, and he wasn't able to keep down anything that the poor little guy would eat. The doctor sent us up to Utah Valley Monday night to get surgery on him. When we got there Kaysten had progressively gotten worse and worse. He was so dehydrated that he started to get really weak and unconscious. The nurses had such a hard time getting an IV in him- but after NINE pokes (three in the head) they finally got an IV in his arm. I was a NERVOUS wreck by time this happened. The surgery happened the next morning, and by this time Kaysten was SOOO HUNGRY! He couldn't eat before his surgery and he couldn't eat for three hours after his surgery. We could only start him out on a 1/2 ounce twice, then 1 ounce twice, 1 1/2 ounces twice, and then 2 ounces twice-- with three hours in between each feeding. It was SO HARD doing this because he would just CRY and CRY!! He is doing so much better now and we are very thankful for this! He is like having a new baby around- he smiles and talks so much more!

As for me and Dustin nothing has really changed. I just finished my third semester in the education program, and I will graduate in April. Dustin is working as a lineman electrician and loving it!

We had a great Christmas- even though Kaysten had no idea what was going on. He still smiled when we showed him the presents!! Dustin and I got spoiled this year lol!!! I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas as well!!!!

Kaysten Feels so much better :) This is him sleeping after surgery- and this is the incisions they made on his stomach. They stuck a camera through his belly button. It was so sad-- SO glad he is feeling better!
