Our Sweet Blake

Blake turned three. I know I know I can hardly believe it either! Time sure has flown by. We have learned so much since he has come in to our family. We are so HAPPY he is here with us!! There have been so many ups and downs a long the way. I can't believe how much this little guy has had to go through. He is such a strong kid! I have learned so much from him.
He loves to sing and dance. And I love watching him to do both, it always make me smile! He loves trucks, cars, trains, dinosaurs, basicly anything boy. His favorite color is green. He loves his big brother so much and looks up to him. He also loves being a big brother and is always trying to help his little brother even when it isn't all that helpful. But it is so cute that he wants to help and that he is trying so hard! He loves to read books and color too.
Here is our precious guy when he was a week old

Here he is at a year

two years old

and our big boy at three

Of those of you who don't know he has a heart condition that isn't very common especially for a newborn to of had. Well recently we found out that it wasn't under control like we thought. It wasn't the best day for me when I found that out. All the emotions from when I found out that he had this (he was about 3 days old when we first saw signs of it) came flooding back. I was worried he would be life flighted again or at least hospitalized. But we are so lucky he has such an amazing cardiologist!! She helped us to figure things out so that we hopefully wouldn't have to go back to the hospital and it worked! She called me a week ago to tell me that it looks like his new medicine is doing the trick. YAY!!! The only down fall is it can change their mood sometimes. Not so great. She told me this after I told her about some weird behavior he has been having lately so she thinks he might be one of the small few who on this med. have this side effect. Oh great just what we wanted. We are very happy he is safe and they have a med for him but it is REALLY hard dealing with his attitude lately. She said he should adjust within a month so *fingers crossed* he does. But I am so HAPPY that he is doing good so I will take that not so great side effect over the other HORRIBLE one!!! We are so happy that he is here with us and that we have this figured out(hopefully)!!!
