Happy Birthday to ELI!! I can't believe he's 5!!! He was my baby just a few months ago... Christy was in charge to buy a birthday cake. So..she took the kids and they picked out Power Ranger cupcakes...well, Eli doesn't eat chocolate cupcakes..and she only got 12. Now...Eli's middle name is CUPCAKE MONSTER...together..he and I can tackle a dozen in one day. Needless to say, Christy and her boys polished off the cupcakes today! I'll get Eli a big cake this weekend...and we'll finish it together!!! (I've given up on losing the baby weight...my sweet tooth is more important than a size 2 pair of pants!!!)
As for Isaac...we had some good times today and some bad times today...but, he's such a sweet angel. I checked his sats today..and they're steady in the low 70s. I talked to the nutritionist about Isaac and his slow weight gain. We made a plan to add one teaspoon of formula to his mix of breastmilk and rice cereal...we'll try that for a few days and see how his tummy takes it. She also told me to take his sats while he's feeding..maybe he's getting too low...that's why he's tiring out. I checked..and I got a reading in the low 60s. (which is BAD)...but, i'll try again tomorrow...and if I get the same reading, I'll call the cardiologist. Christy is still here..and I still can't talk about her because she has access to this blog...ha ha ha...she's doing good and the kids are semi-behaving! Eli opened up a few gifts...a few cards...he has no idea what wonderful things he'll get this weekend! (I can't wait!!!). I miss Christopher..i hope he's swimming like a fish, using sunscreen, and not getting into too much trouble! (he's becoming quite a prankster!). ***Check out Eli's blog to the right...I'm going to let him start taking the pics to post and we'll work on video blogs and maybe...one day...he'll do all the typing!
