Like a champ

Logan has been having a good week. He is over his cold, and has only had some eye irritation that we are giving him drops for and it is clearing up nicely. Not sure what happened there, it was watery when he was sick and then turned into more so they gave us drops to take care of it. He has been taking his medicine like a champ, and we are very proud of how he is doing. He does not put up a fight to take his meds, though he still tells me what he does not like (which is most of it). Thankfully we are done with the steroids, and he came off of them well with no issues. He took his first dose of Methotrexate (10.5 pills) last night because we forgot on Tuesday. Thankfully it is just once a week, and they said there was some flexibility as long as he gets it in. Ten and a half pills was a lot to crush, and it may be a bit of trial and error figuring out the best way to crush and give it to him. I normally crush his pills inside the syringe so that there is little to no waste of the medication, but that was too many to do that so I had to do it in between two spoons. then I dissolved it in a little cup and tried sucking it up into the syringe. That did not work very well and neither did pouring it into the back of the syringe and fitting the plunger inside. Like I said, trial and error. Maybe better in small batches? We will see.

Logan is ready for Valentine's day and is excited about handing out goodies to his friends. He picked out Hot Wheels cars for the boys and pink and white rubber duckies for the girls as well as some candy. And we picked up some Valentine coupons for a free donut at Krispy Kreme last weekend so we included those. He also helped me pick out the gift for Alexis which is a heart necklace. His gift is a surprise, but let's just say he will be an even better dressed super hero. Pictures to come this weekend. Happy Valentine's day everyone from Logan!

He has not been letting me take pictures of him the past couple of days, but these quotes made me think of him. First just for being him:

And second, because it is Valentine's and just as a general reminder:
