Two favorites

Two of my favorite pictures from our recent stay at Randall Children's Hospital.
 


Series of Pictures

Henry came home yesterday, full of energy. Henry and Owen decided it would be fun to tackle Lucas. I love the facial expressions on all their faces. 
 

 Where's Henry?
 There he is!




More hospital time

This trip to the hospital was only three nights. Luckily, Henry was in pretty good spirits all three days, you'd never know he had a blood infection.
 
Down the hall from our room was a view of the helicopter pad, we went there quite often to look for lifeflight. Henry found a fun new way to ride there.
 
 Entertaining himself with toys.
 Before we were allowed home, Henry needed a nebulizer treatment to see if that helped with his cough. He was not a fan. But he did love the mask, after the treatment was done.

Back again

After our trip to Seattle, Henry spiked a fever. Then his blood culture came back positive. This has bought us a few night in the hospital for IV antibiotics. He is in great spirits, which helps this hospital stay... but make it harder since he is in such a good mood.
 

Henry had a train fall on his toe and take a chunk out of it... Owen is playing doctor and putting a Band-Aid on. 
 Henry would rather pull the wagon than ride in the wagon. I take this as a great sign!

Seattle

We went to Seattle this past week to see Henry's pediatric immunologist. We decided to go a day early to have some fun. We took Sara along for fun too. She's part of our family, plus she could play with Owen while we focused on Henry at Seattle Children's Hospital.
 
We picked Sara up at Emanuel. The boys love playing in the revolving doors.
 Our first stop: an hour cruise on the harbor. Four thumbs up.

 Sara "photo bombed" this self portrait. Henry does not seem amused.

 Our next stop was the Great Wheel... so we were admiring it from the boat.

Brothers

Both boys love the airport. Which is great when we have reason to go to the "big" airport: PDX. This is a picture after we dropped of Allie, Libby and Kaiya. They love watching airplanes.
 A few pictures of the boys while on a walk at noble woods park.

More Park Pictures




Multnomah Falls

Today we went to Multnomah Falls and Wahkeena Falls with Bob, Amy, Allie, Liberty and Kaiya. The kids did great, all of them. Henry even hiked for about 0.1 miles. Here is a ton of pictures from both Lucas and my cameras.

 Owen was a great hiker. No complaints.

 Liberty and Henry are best-pals. She can make him laugh harder than anyone around.
 Tired boys.
