Garrett is now 6 weeks old (1-month in the pictures above). He is now also a growing 9lb-7oz as of 11/15/07 when he received his first Synagis injection. Synagis is the preventive therapy for RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) which can be extremely serious in premature infants due to immature lung development. It is heartbreaking to have your little ones get shots and in pain but it would be much more difficult to have him become ill with RSV.
We are gearing up for Thanksgiving and the 3-turkey day celebrations. Spending time with family is wonderful and yet tiring all at the same time.
We are also working to ready the house for the Elmwood Holiday Tour of Homes. I had a weak moment and volunteered to showcase our home. I am getting some decorating assistance from a local shop - The Fair Store, Tami has some great ideas. It really will be a great time and has gotten Kurt and I pushed to hang pictures up and complete a few minor projects. We'll get to meet some new people along the way also. We'll post photos of the house in a few weeks.
