Wyatt, Home and Bump Update

Wyatt entered the hospital Monday and stayed overnight Tuesday which is when I last updated. He woke up Tuesday and ran off from the hospital. At this time, police were called and found him a couple blocks away. They had him transported via ambulance to Salem ED and of course ended up having to sedate him to get him there. Once there, he was seen by a psychiatrist and finally a plan was in place. We upped the prozac and he started respiridone. Unfortunately, he had 2 horrible reactions where he became paralyzed from the respiridone and they really gave us no other options. Crazy enough, they sent us home with a script for it Wednesday evening when we finally got to pick him up. They said that there was another medicine he could take to quickly counteract it. I asked hard questions like, " What happens if this happens during the night?" He could die I assume. The Dr. couldn't give any reasonable answers so we were left in the dirt with a little extra prozac. 

I took matters into my own hands with the help of the psychiatrist and alternative health practitioners and we are trying some other things. So far, so good. I would give anything in my power to help him feel well and balanced and never to enter a psych ward again. 

On to this week's projects:

This is Fynnick's new dresser and rug. These two items may not seem a huge change to the nursery in our room, but to me, it's huge. I have to do this in tiny stages and steps, otherwise I find it too shocking and painful. Little by little we will get there. The next plan is shiplap behind the dresser on the wall. 

 Of course the dresser couldn't come put together.......downside to amazon sometimes. Nate was impressed by it anyhow. It is heavy real wood. 
 Nate got another project complete since his dad flew in Wednesday. Sadly, once hung, we realized Lowes messed up and gave us doors with different frost darknesses. We now wait for the new door to arrive to replace the door on the right. 
 Barnwood doors on the hallway linen closet has been a dream forever. Finally! 
Our wood stove before
 Our wood stove after the shiplap project Nate and his dad pulled off just in time for the girl's birthday party last night!



A little retail therapy last week was helpful for the soul. These are the first things I have bought for baby, a few organic sleepers that arrived soft as butter. 

15.5 weeks with Fynnick. The bump has arrived. I am feeling him squirm here and there especially after a big meal.
