Happy Easter

Sorry its late but I have no excuse other than not sitting down at the computer to write. Easter Sunday the kids were up early and I finally got to sleep for more than 3 hours at night. Joe did the night duty and he was a bit upset that Finnian didn't seem to want to sleep more than 2 hour at a time until he needed to be repositioned. To top it all off Finnian had a whopper of an ear infection so that in sued more crying.
Then on Easter Sunday while I was down stairs he decided to have a seizure. Well we refer to them as seizures but the medical professionals would say he had a breath holding spell. He gets quiet and his face as this weird twist to it and he goes pure white and I mean WHITE. But thankfully he didn't have a shout that still puts the heart cross ways in Joe.
They had an Easter Egg hunt in the living room and the first 2 eggs were put into Finnian's basket. The kids got all dolled up in their Easter outfits and we went over to Nanny's for dinner.Where they got more eggs. But this time they got the good stuff Irish Easter Eggs.
Our Finnian decided today that he would have another seizure this time his saliva came pouring out of his mouth, eyes rolled up into his head and he was totally unresponsive and then like as if you snapped your fingers he was out of it like nothing ever happened.
I tell you its the weather change and the ear infection that is doing it to him. With him being sick he has a lower threshold and then to top it off the weather has been beautiful with the temps in the high 60's to 70's. His body cannot adjust to the increase as he has problems with sweating. He doesn't sweat. They are not sure if it is a side effect from meds but you know the child has never really sweated other than a few beads on his lip and around his hair line.
Oh well thats life in our house
