Greyson goes to the Philadelphia Zoo
Awesome trip to the zoo today with the Sakyis. Greyson really enjoyed himself, checking out the animals and napping a little. We are coming up on 7 months!! I can't believe how fast time is passing...he is really growing so much right before my eyes!!
He did however seem a little nervous about the Phillies game tonight....

HFMD!
So..Sunday morning Greyson woke up with a temperature of 104.3! we panicked of course..Dr. said to give him Tylenol every four hours and keep an eye on him which of course we did, fever went down to about 102....he stopped eating and drinking around 5pm on Sunday, and his last wet diaper was at 7pm. Sunday night he screamed through the night still refusing to take a bottle.
We called the doctor first thing Monday morning she asked us to bring him in, she immediately noticed blisters on the back of his throat and explained that that's why he was not eating and drinking. This was also the reason that he was not passing any pee or poop. Dr. told us that Greyson has Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease!!!! and even worse, he was at risk for dehydration since he hadn't eaten or peed in over 12 hours. We left with the instructions to push fluids because if he didn't pee by the early afternoon they would admit him and administer an IV : (
We are now heavily pushing fluids which he is not happy about...everything from pedialite pops to juices, water, watermelon. He's had one wet diaper, it's been a struggle. I've switched to Motrin which seems to help a little.
This is a mean sickness...poor little guy is miserable!! He should see relief in a few more days...very scary, I hadn't even heard of this! I'll keep you all posted!!
...No more passing Greyson around at outings, and no touching Greyson's hands!! Ugh!!
#miserable 😷😞👎🙏
Update: Greyson is doing better. He had 3 wet diapers today...2-4oz bottles and a little pasta. Still awaiting what is sure to be an explosive #2....

6 Superbly Awesome Months So Far!
Our big boy is 6 months today!
I'm so proud of Greyson, he continues to do so well! At 6 months he is doing a lot of his playtime sitting up and he is so sturdy! He is putting together multiple repetitive syllables such as dadadada, baba, mmmba, wawa, gagaga and so on...BUT no MAMA! : ) ...not yet, I suppose he is saving the best for last (hehehe). Greyson rolls both front to back and back to front, and he is able to hold his own bottle for an entire feeding. He loves Mickey Mouse!
I am really feeling the love these days...he lights up when he sees me, he wants to be held all day, and he looks for me when I leave the room. He gives me the biggest kisses <3 <3 <3 ...He doesn't reserve all love for me, he loves his daddy and acts so proud when he is holding him. He and sissy (Naya) have a great bond, they are so cute!
Greyson is still eating baby foods stage 1 (sometimes stage 2 apples). His favorite meal is oatmeal and apples and he'll eat almost 3/4 cup! I've given him Gerber juices (apple, pear, & white grape) and he does well with them but I don't give juices that often. He had 4 ozs of water on Tuesday while out in the sun. Last night we had dinner at the Sakyi's and Greyson had broccoli, rice, and he tried crab..and loved it! No shellfish allergies!
We are still working on sleeping through the night. His night schedule is something like this:
8:30PM - A little oatmeal with apples
9:30PM - 4oz Bottle (Bedtime)
3:00AM - 4oz Bottle
7:00AM - Up
I went through some old pics...and I can't believe how fast my little boy is growing!! Cheers to you Greyson!! I am the happiest mommy!!
