Another surgery....

My poor Cooper man has been having bloody noses pretty badly for the last year and a half. It happens about every other day and mostly during the night. It is so sad to see him "freak out" whenever his little nose runs even a little. He is afraid it is bleeding. We have tried a lot of things over this duration of time. Humidifier, air(ointment), you name it! I took him to the pediatrician to see what else there was to do because he had gotten a bloody nose that lasted 45 mins until it finally developed a little clot and stopped. Poor guy! Dr. Marsden said he wanted to test to make sure he didn't have a blood clotting disorder just to be safe and thankfully he doesn't so we got referred to the ENT (ear, nose, and throat specialist). We saw Dr. Gardner who had taken out Cooper's tonsils. He was great and suggested that we have his vessel in his "bleeder" nostril cauterized. I am so sad to have my little guy be put out for another surgery, but if it will help I think we will all be very grateful!! So, this Friday Cooper is going in to have his procedure done. I tried to explain to him that we were going to the hospital like we did for his tonsil and he will go to sleep for a while and get his nose to feel better. (not as many bleeds) Instantly, he said, "Can I get new jammies?" Of course.....so we went out looking for those perfect PJ's. He picked out some cute dinosaur pajama's and is all excited to wear them on Friday!

Fishing in Montana

Nick left on Wed. (May 27th) to Montana with his brothers (except Kyle- he had guard) and dad for their annual brother's trip. They drove up to Logan on Wednesday and stayed the night. Thursday morning they woke up and drove the rest of the way. They got to Montana and floated down the Beaverhead river on their pontoon boats. Here is Nick with his two fish he got to keep and bring home. We tried to keep busy while he was gone. We went to the splash park and swimming almost everyday. It was a lot of fun. The nights were defiantly the hardest. Cooper would cry that dad was not in his spot to go to bed. It was so sad. This is Cooper all ready for church (sorry about the fuzzy picture..my phone doesn't take very good ones). He was so excited because when we got home from church daddy would be home. YAY! More on Nick's fishing trip and pictures to come!
