Eden had her 2nd Birthday on January 10th, but our poor little baby girl didn't feel much like celebrating. Eden actually was in the doctor's office on her birthday. .....Yuck!! The doctor said that Eden had the RSV virus and she was going to feel even worse before starting to feel better. She sounded and felt so bad already....it came upon her so fast. I couldn't imagine her feeling worse, but she did get worse. She was taking five different medications for the first week, then we were able to cut down to three. She definitely was a sick little baby. She started feeling better about a week ago and it is so good to see her appetite coming back and YES I will say it......her energy level getting back to "Eden's" normal. Eden has always had LOTS of energy and it broke our hearts to see her feeling so bad that she just sat in our laps and did nothing for feeling sooooo awful. There were some days that she just wanted to play a little, that consisted of sitting in the floor and looking at her books and playing her puzzles for about 15 to 30 minutes, then she would rest again for hours. So, we hope and pray that Eden never has a birthday feeling this bad again, but she has many, many more to celebrate.
Eden received many cards (in the mail, which she loves) and was given many gifts. She loves them all. Thanks!! I like this first picture, Eden was starting not to feel so well when it was taken, but she still was caring for her baby by making sure she had a pillow and blanket.

Coming home from seeing the doctor, Eden received MORE cards in the mail.
When Eden looks at this picture she says, "Daddy--rub Eden back".
Eden sees something interesting....

We love seeing that "SMILE".
