Oklahoma City Trip!

We decided to go to OKC for a weekend. We stayed at the Embassy Suites (awesome breakfast - omelettes made in front of you...). We went to the Zoo on Saturday - it turned out to be quite cold in the morning (okay, for a lot of the day) so was not 100% pleasant but we saw neat animals and Kyle really enjoyed it! We then had supper with Susie H and Regina! Regina, thanks for dessert and for sharing your worker company with us! :) Sunday we went to OKC special meeting then out to eat with Grandpa Calvin, Grandma Pat and Great Grandpa Les. On the way home, Kyle had some sort of breathing attack. It was absolutely awful as we had nothing along to help him out - the Benadryl was home, the inhaler was home... for a while I wondered if we were going to have to all 911 and have them meet us on I-40. Blah. We made it to a Wal-Mart for Benadryl (in case it was an allergic reaction to something) which did seem to help. However, he was still really wheezing when we got home so I gave him a breathing treatment which really didn't do anything so at 1:30 in the morning I was on the phone with a nurse in Little Rock who had me give a Rescue treatment. It did help more so that was good! However, since none of us had very much sleep Del stayed home from work - we also weren't sure if we were going to need to take him in anyway.... It was a rather stressful ending to a wonderful weekend.

Kolby was laying on the bed and Kyle decided he wanted to hold him. So, he picked him up and hauled him onto his lap! :)

How exciting to run across your family in the big world of blogging. I have to admit it was the pics of Grandpa and Grandma that clued me into whose blog I was on. You have a beautiful family and loved catching up this way. Darcie

There is nothing worse than having something like that happen in the car! Before you can react you have to get pulled over first...it scares me silly to have Kaden start screaming from the backseat out of the blue...I can only image what this was like! You were one of my inspirations to get started blogging! Love getting to keep up with old friends (and current ones) when we don't get to see everyone very often!

Luckily we were in a parking lot feeding Kolby so could get to him right away. Del took him into the station to use the facilities and it seemed to help clear it up a little bit (maybe?)... Anyway, one of those deals where you don't know where a hospital is, do you call 911?? He does not have asthma as far as we know, K, but who knows. According to the doctor at his well visit, we don't have to worry much if he is just using the inhaler a couple times a year or less.... :)
