Jack had a weight check this afternoon and it turned into a little bit more than expected. First of all he got a fever today, so he hardly ate anything which I'm sure didn't help in the weight department. Also due the fever he ended up having an unexpected check up and throat culture to make sure he didn't have strep. He didn't gain as much weight as we would have liked, about 5 ounces in three months, so that combined with a few other things such as his recent random vomiting and not so pleasant stools lead to tests. The doctor decided to go ahead and test for celiac disease and a few other things since they were drawing blood anyway. I don't think the doctor or I really think that there is anything wrong but it's sorta just a double check to make sure we're not missing something. Unfortunately the testing required blood to be drawn :( That was so sad. But Jack was really brave and did a great job. Afterwards he looked at his arm and the band-aid with gauze that was there and seemed a little disturbed. I told him that it was a funny sticker and every time he looked at it or showed it to me I laughed and told him what a funny sticker he had. He thought that was hilarious and was quickly laughing and repeatedly showing me his funny sticker and cracking up. So we survived an eventful doctors visit and are saying our prayers that all his tests come back negative and whatever is causing his fever goes away ASAP.
I'm me. I blog my life. Most of it is about my three boys and my experiences as their mother. I try to keep it honest, real and funny when possible. Hopefully, one day when the memories have faded this blog will remind me of this sweet time of life when my babies were babies.
