Update on H

I wasn't expecting to hear from the doctor until next week, but he called me at 5:15 yesterday with the news that Hayden's sinuses are completely blocked. :(

Dr. C wants us to come in to go over the films with him and discuss our options. He said conservatively, we treat it with extensive antibiotics and steroids, but that hasn't really worked in the past. He also said we would be dealing with the side effects of all of the medication. Aggressively, he does endoscopic sinus surgery and an adenoidectomy.

This is not really the news we wanted to hear, but we are glad to finally have some answers. He probably feels worse than we ever even knew because of all of the pressure and he is most likely suffering from sinus headaches.

We have some tough decisions to make about his treatment, but my prayer is that we will know what is the right thing to do. I don't want him to have to suffer anymore.

And on a happy note, here's some fun pics from the last couple of weeks.

 
I went through all of the baby stuff and Hayden found some hidden treasures. He has been sitting in the bumbo for the last week regardless of the fact that he doesn't really fit!

His Valentine goodies from his party. He looks a little rough in this photo because he doesn't fell well. :(

This is part of the diaper stash from the shower!

And here is more!
