Ok I know its a little late to be doing a new years blog, but lifes been crazy and its my blog so in typical taylor fashion my new years post will be late :)
Im so glad for 2013 and all that it is going to bring. 2012 Was a rough year for us. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia so iv been trying to learn to deal with all that goes along with it. I'm glad to know what it is so I'm not constantly wondering why I hurt all the time. They also think that's why I keep getting gastro paresis so that answers a big question me and the Dr's have been wondering.
Brody had a great year though. First he was born which was an easy labor/recovery he is so cute! He has only been sick twice! and he learned to crawl! Did I mention how cute he is. my pics are on the other computer so they will be coming hopefully soon!
Addy has grown like crazy and her vocabulary is amazing. Her personality really came out in 2012 and she is one funny girl! She is an insomniac so we are constantly fighting her to go to bed at night. I will call 2012 the year of the 3am bedtime. Don't be jealous ;) Luckily this year she has started going to bed around 10 yay its been such a blessing! We took her to a sleep doctor. They said its crazy that she sleeps so little. the Dr said she has never seen a two year old sleep as little as her and still be developmentally on track. She thinks she may be ocd or bi polar. She hasn't been diagnosed yet but I would guess she is OCD she has issues about people touching things or putting things out of place, or things being dirty. I guess we will see as she gets older. They gave us two medications to try one made her crazy hopped up on a ton of sugar hyper, the other made her crazy sick. so for now were just working on enforcing an earlier bed time. We sure love her though and the love, laughter, and fun she brings to our family!!
Bryce had the toughest year of us all though. He lost his job at the beginning of the year. He got diagnosed with a sever case of Ankylosing Spondylitis. You should try saying it its fun :) to bad the disease isn't as fun. Hes been a trooper learning to cope with it. Sadly non of the medications have worked in slowing down the disease. were hoping that insurance will cover the humira they want him to try in hopes it will work. We found out he is allergic to honey. Randomly one day his body decided it doesn't like honey. WHAT?? we had no idea you could develop an allergy out of the blue. That has been a scary experience that has lead to him being rushed to the ER to recover him from anaphlatic (sp?) shock. Near the end of the year he almost died and surprisingly it wasn't from the honey. Apparently his body doesn't absorb potassium from food for some reason so his potassium got so low it was at zero. First he was complaining his legs felt weird and fifteen minuets later he couldn't move his legs or his arms, so i had to drag him from the bedroom floor to the couch. I called the ambulance to come get him and that's when he lost his ability to talk, and was having problems breathing. It was super scary. Thankfully Addy was asleep so she didn't have to witness it! Once they got him to the hospital they couldn't figure out what was wrong with him and he kept getting worse and his heart and kidneys and lungs were starting to fail. the ER was lost as to what was happening so he admitted him. Where the Admitting DR. said to check his potassium level before checking him into a room. So thankful for this Dr and advising the ER Dr. to check his levels. they found out he had no potassium and immediately started giving him pill, shots, and iv bags full of potassium and he immediately got better. Mean less to say after all his near death experiences this year I'm a paranoid wife. I check all labels and make sure he eats lots of greens and bananas :)
We did have good things happen in 2012 though. Brody was born, we celebrated our 5 year anniversary. We got to see his sister and her family who came down from California to celebrate thanksgiving. Bryce got a on call position as a valet at the hospital, and with him not working so much we have got to enjoy lots of time as family! We also have had fun watching Addy grow and learn! she is so independent and gets into everything. I think I could make a comedy blog just off of the things she does and says everyday.
Here is to 2013 hopefully it wont be such a medically filled year!
