Choking. Seriously choking.

First off, I want to say i'm VERY proud of Matt today. He took a class today & learned so much. He will be a great manager at Vitek BBQ (:

So yesterday during the evening Matt & I were leaving HEB (my favorite store). As we're driving back home, talking about what we should cook for dinner. Elijah starts to do his famous "fake" cough, which quickly turned into real coughing & gagging. Suddenly I start to get really scared and since I can't see my own son (carseat has to face the back) my heart starts to race and panic. We quickly pull over, Matt jumps out of the passenger seat gets Elijah breathing and calmed down. He was blue to the face, tears, boogers everywhere. As soon as Elijah is okay we start to drive home. Once again Elijah starts to gag and starts to cry while choking. Part of me wanted to turn the car around and drive to the hospital. But there was no time, my son was gasping for air... a breath of life... my son. I quickly pull over, Matt once again jumps out of the car, as do I. Elijah starts to breath, then throws up some. I tell Matt to drive because i'm sitting in the back with him. Elijah is fine, he laughing and moving around like super awesome eight month old he is. The whole way home I kept thanking God for letting me have Elijah. Elijah is super blessing to Matt & I.

 Today Elijah is doing great and doesn't stop crawling. He is seriously on the move.
He loves bathes, tickling, and eating. He is full of life. I am so glad Elijah is my life.
Have a great night everyone!
