On Friday, Ty woke up acting really sick. Throughout the day, I noticed that he progressively had a harder time breathing. His chest and stomach would rise dramatically every time he would breathe. All he wanted to do was sit on the coach all day because it took so much effort to breathe. I took him to our pediatrician. They gave him several breathing treatments (which didn’t help) and x-rays. The doctor told us that it was serious enough that we needed to go to Primary Children’s Hospital right away to get the proper care. So…that is where we spent Friday night! It was the longest night of our lives. They diagnosed him with viral pneumonia. Trying to get a 2 year old to keep a tube in his nose, to wear a mask for his breathing treatments, and leashed up to monitor on his toe is absolutely impossible! We spent the entire 24 hours while we were there wrangling him. It was so hard seeing him go through it all. Phew. I am so glad it is over and that Ty is feeling much better now. Staying at the hospital for one night left me in awe of the families that have this as a lifestyle. I saw and met several parents with chronically ill children. It completely broke my heart.
It is so crazy to see Ty sick this past month, because it has been the first time he has been sick in his entire life. Hopefully he won’t catch anything else while his immune system is down still.
Here are some pictures that my mom happened to snap. Trust me I wasn’t even thinking about pictures and it was the last thing I wanted to be in. But here's to memories!

At the doctors office. That is a fake smile.
After one long night...
On a happier note we really enjoyed going to the Spanish Fork Rodeo! I had to get a family cowboy pictures with everyone in their cowboy boots! I think we are officially true Spanish Forkians’ Yee-haw!
Then the best thing that has happened lately is that we celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary! Time flies! I guess that really isn’t that long, but to me I can barely remember not being married. Here is a picture that I happened to have digitally. I don’t have any that the photographer took, on the computer. But this is one of my favs. I would give some really cheesy tribute to Tyler, but he would be too embarrassed and insist that I take it down.

Congrats on the big 3! You guys are so cute! I'm sorry about Ty, I'm glad he's feeling better, that is scary!
You guys are troopers. Those pictures almost made me cry, poor kid. I can't even imagine! Thank goodness it's over!
Going to the hospital is traumatic for anyone, much less a little one. Way to make it through that. I'm petrified Mia will get sick one of these days. 'scuse me while I go knock on some wood.
I am so glad that Ty is on the up and up. What a weird thing to catch- any ideas how he got it? The rodeo looks like fun- I love having a reason to dress up in a cowboy hat!
What a horrible night!! I'm glad it was just 1 night and I hope he's over being sick. On a better note, happy 3rd! :) Cute rodeo pictures.
