Crazy Week!!

Trey is now 1! I can not believe it!! I also haven't been on for a while either. For about a week I have been driving, in Niagara Falls (Canada's side, which is much prettier), in Ohio, OR in Indiana. Which is where we spent Trey's 1st Birthday.
First of all we went to Niagara Falls on Valentines day with my sister Zephanie, and her mom Josie, father Derick, and brother Jaaron. We spent the whole weekend and came back on Monday. We went to a place called M. T. Bellies and it was a bar and grill type thing. I was old enough to drink so I order a Strawberry Dacari with my meal, AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN CARD ME!!! That was upsetting!! What is the point of ordering something when they aren't even going to card you!! But it was delicious. It tasted like a Strawberry Smoothies. You couldn't even taste the alcohol. I knew I wouldn't get buzzed off that one drink. I knew Trey wouldn't be in any kind of danger so I felt I was able to have one drink. Brad order a beer with his meal he was upset he didn't get carded either. We all had a great time in restaurant called Rainforest Cafe. There are Gorillas, Elephants, Butterflies, and Snakes that move and make noises while you eat. You can walk around and take pictures of all kinds of animals that are berried in all the vines and leaves on the walls and ceiling. There is also stars on the ceiling in the center of the room that change and move. Also every 15 minutes there is a thunderstorm. So thunder and lightning sound and then all the animals go crazy!! There is also a bad under this HUGE mushroom that water falls off of. There are bar stools that look like Zebras, duck, Giraffe, and much more animals. It was a GREAT time. I bough a shot glass from there gift shop, Brad bough a beer glass, and after spending $15 Trey got a free gift , which was a plate that had the Rainforest Cafes logo it. Which was pretty cool. We might go back in May when his friend Daniel comes to visit. Then we will have to go back to the Rainforest Cafe again!!
Secondly we came back home just to was our clothes stay a whole day. The next morning we got up, went through tons of paper work for Yoh to start training, then took a drug test. We left Trey at home with Bridget and Ron so we had to swing by and pick him up REAL fast because we had to drive 6 hours to be at my grandma's in Ohio. We left around 11:45 am and got there at 6:10 pm exactly. The next morning we left for Lafayette around 8 am and arrived around noon. I love road trips but not a week of it. Trey started a cough the day we left for Lafayette and it got worse. I did EVERYTHING I could for someone that is 1. You can't do much. I filled him up with Ibuprofen and covered him in Vicks, when we where at my moms (where we stayed), and had the Vicks humidifier going all nigh long. We ended up taking him to the ER after his Birthday party at Chuck E Cheese, Which was a BLAST, and everyone had fun. Trey didn't hardly cough or anything. When we got home was when we really noticed a problem. Brad had lied him down in his bed and he only slept but 5 minutes. When he cried it was really faint and he was a little wheeze at the end of his cry. His voice was very horse and his cough was wheeze too. It seemed like he was really working to breath. I was REALLY worried so I told Brad we needed to go to the ER. I told my mom that we where leaving my brother Taylor insisted on going and all I was worried about was Trey not being able to breath. Well they did a booger test, NOT JOKING. They said that would be 25 minutes. Then they gave him a breathing treatment, which he screamed hysterically the whole time. I had to hold his arms down while the lady held the mask over his face. Then I almost got him to sleep after only taking a total of a 10 minute nap for the whole day. They tell me that he needs an X-ray of his chest. You have to keep still for a X-ray right? Well how the hell do they keep a 1 year-old still do you ask? They sat him down in a board that had a bar in the middle to put his legs through then closed a tube around him with his hands above his head and closed the tube. The didn't get it right the 1st time so they had to do it a SECOND TIME!! It killed me to watch them do it the 1st time and then they had to do it the SECOND TIME!! I had so sit there and watch him scream and try to reach for me while tears are pouring down his face!! I almost stared crying for him!! I think that is one of the only things that really hurt is when Trey is upset. They told up that the results would be up in 20 minutes, So we have to wait for that. We where in the hospital from 3 pm to 8 pm. We finally found out that he had RSV which is a form of Bronchitis. She told us that RIGHT when we got into NY to get a appointment to see his paediatrician ASAP so it didn't turn into Pneumonia. Which scared me to DEATH!! We went to my grandpa's house the next day and he gave Trey his Christmas present because we didn't get to see him on Christmas. He gave Trey a Red Rider BB Gun. I thought that was great but his wife Debi didn't think so. I had one when I was REAL little. I was allowed to play with mine when I was about 5. I don't see any problem with them as long as the child is supervised and thought all the safety rules and know boundaries. Until then it is sitting on the top shelf of his closet and the BB are hidden somewhere else. We left for home after we got to see my grandpa and my great-grandma. I took Trey to see his pediatrician the next day and found out he got an ear infection too. She said it goes hand-in-hand with RSV. Now we have to tackle Trey to take 2 medications at 8:00 am and pm. The one for RSV was for 3 day but the one for the ear infection is for 2 weeks. I literally have to hold him down for him to take it. His cough gets worse when he get worked up too!! Well Brad now is stuffed up, has a fever, sore throat, cough, and his stomach stared getting upset today. Bridget has an upset stomach and was getting sick all night last night. Ron cough something but I don't know what. All I have had this whole time is a stuffy nose and a head ace from being all stuffed up. I hope EVERYONE that came to the party is well, because I would feel TERRIBLE if Trey got anyone else sick!! I will have to put pics on later. I still have to cut Trey's hair!!
