Hi Cute Baby!
Pediatricians Appointment
You had an appointment with the Pediatricians yesterday morning as a follow up to your hospital stay before we go away next week. He said you are doing well. He said that the result of a viral swab the did on you when you were in the hospital said you had two viruses at the same time … adenovirus and rhinovirus. He said that you did extremely well recovering considering that you had those viruses. He said it was a good thing that you went to the hospital and were getting prednisone.
You've been waking up a few times through the night. He said you may be having some reflux from the respiratory mucus, so he prescribed you something for that. He also said that you don't need to be getting a bottle through the night when you wake up. So I guess we'll try to stop that. He said you're a big healthy boy and don't need a bottle through the night. If we keep giving it to you, you will keep waking up looking for it.
You woke up once last night. I just snuggled you in my bed and put you back in your crib after you settled. You got up early in the morning. We gave you a bottle and you slept a little while longer.
Vaccinations
You also got your vaccinations yesterday morning. The pediatricians wanted you to get them before we go to Mexico. They didn't take your measurements but they did at the pediatricians office. Mommy didn't write them down, but said you are around 24 lbs. I tried to measure you on the floor at home, but its pretty hard to be accurate … you keep squirming and don’t straighten out very well. I estimated that you are just under 750 mm long. In mid-March, you were measured at the doctor office to be 743 mm. We have that written on the wall, so we’ll wait for your next measurement to put another one on the wall.
You did really well with the vaccinations. You got 2 needles in one arm and 1 in the other. You were happy all day after your needles. My big tough happy boy.
Drinking With Straw
Earlier this week, we went out to eat. Mommy and I were giving you orange juice through a straw. We were holding juice in the straw and putting it in your mouth. We tried to get you to drink straight from the straw in the cup, but you’re not ready for that yet.
First Pudding
The kids meal that we got for you came with a pudding dessert. It was your first taste of chocolate pudding. You loved it.
Bothering Your Sister and The Dog – Excited Laugh
Last night, you were on the floor and kept schooching over to grab the dog. Each time I said no, you let out an excited, hysterical laugh and tried to move faster. Later you moved on to your sister where she was watching TV on her couch. You kept trying to climb on her and grab her. You kept doing your excited laugh when I was telling you no.
I love you sweet Prince Will!
Daddy
