It's Tuesday!!! Isaac is still feeding like a champ!! We didn't have any appointments to run to today. Joe went out and bought a freezer for me...the milk I'm saving for our little guy is filling up the freezer in the kitchen. We gave Isaac a bath....he didn't scream too terribly loud...but, he sure was cute all cleaned up! Tonight Joe got a call from Dr. Sirsey, the pediatrician. He said that Isaac's lab work came back and his potassium levels were too low and that he was dehydrated and that we should take him immediately to the emergency room. (Now, this is the man that look terrified to have us as patients!). Joe called our cardiologist and he said the results sounded skewed and they were draw more blood at our appointment tomorrow. This will probably be the story of our lives...running to the hospital unexpectedly! For all those that we haven't told...when they discharged us from the hospital, they told us that Isaac is extremely immune compromised (because of his heart and the DiGeorge). They specifically told us to only take him out of the house for his doctor appointments (no grocery stores, no shopping malls, no church, etc.)...and they said to really limit the people we have in the house. If Isaac gets even a small cold...we will be back in the hospital with him. (and if he has an infection within a month of his scheduled heart surgery, they would have to postpone it). So...we love everyone and know everyone wants to see him and pinch his fat little cheeks...but, you'll have to wait until he's bigger, healthier, and stronger. (Just admire his pictures and just know they don't do him justice)! Eli has to take a snack to preschool tomorrow (that starts with the letter "Y")...so, the pics attached are of us making sugar cookies (not from scratch), we cut them into "Y's" and then iced them with yellow icing. We have a morning appointment tomorrow with the early developmental specialists and an afternoon appointment with the cardiologists...so, be prepared for no pics tomorrow...but, i'll try! And Brooke..I got your box....the outfits were ADORABLE and Cindy...we got your box...and Eli stole the blanket you made....it was too SOFT!!!
