Living and Loving Life

We have always been a fun, outgoing couple; to say that we sat and sulked in a corner would be a HUGE lie.  But we have NEVER experienced life like this.  Before, we would do something, have a blast, Graham would, more likely than not, be the life of the event, then go home.  Graham would need several days, if not a week or a hospital stay, to recuperate.  Now...HELLO WORLD!  Graham is a non-stop energizer bunny.  I know I've said it before, but it's been going like this since mid-February (knock on wood) and there is no slowing down.  Jordan and I have both been sick, and I mean SICK, and he not only didn't catch it, he took care of us!
By the end of Graham's 15 day hospital stay with RSV, the doctor just dismissed him. He figured, they aren't helping him, might as well send him home.  And ever since, he keeps getting bigger and stronger.  He's been going to the gym, strengthening all the muscles he hasn't used in awhile.  He stands taller, has more muscle tone, has gained almost enough weight to FINALLY surpass me on the scale, and has the best out look on life.  He's also been helping out a lot around the house and with Jordan.  It's weird, I've had to retrain myself to not do somethings, or even not get offended when he does them.  Yes, I would get offended.  Because before, I knew it hurt him to do things, and if he had to do them, it was because it really needed to be done and he couldn't wait on me.  Now, it's nothing like that. 
He's been really trying to make up time with Jordan.  Picking her up early from school to go swimming, having sleepovers on the couch bed together (she LOVES it, she gets to stay up late, watch Sponge Bob, and have special time with Daddy), date nights that include dinner and Braum's, and he even took her to see her first movie in the theatre - Rango.  Big success, and next on her list is Rio.
He's also been trying to just relax and have fun with friends and family.  Every Easter we go with my parents to an Easter Brunch at the Fort Worth Club.  The food is so good, and there is a ton of it.  Graham has never fully experienced this buffet.  Always being too sick to eat his fill.  This year, Graham is planning on not eating much on the days leading up to the brunch and chowing down.  Showing the buffet who's boss.  I have Pepto waiting for when we return.
We still don't know when he'll be released for work.  We are guessing when he reaches a year.  Dr. Rosenblatt has always been extra cautious with him, and that is fine by us.  We want him around for many, MANY more years!
