Sorry about the lack of updates...but, we've been VERY busy here! Isaac saw Dr. Baron (GI doc) on Wednesday. His wretching was improving...but over the last few days, he's started coughing and with every cough is a wretch...which means he's gagging and spitting up every 20 minutes. (poor baby). He's also got a low grade fever. Anyway, Dr. Baron wanted me to increase the cornstarch in his milk over the weekend, if that doesn't work, we're going to start him on a low dose of antibiotics....this will help speed his stomach processing (just to move it on along). We're going to try that for a week, if that doesn't work...then, we're going to try Baclofen (the muscle relaxer)...if that doesn't work...we're in trouble! We'll be at Stanford at that time and all of this wretching will make for one miserable recovery! I've checked for new teeth..because he's got all the signs of it...I just can't find any yet! I hope it's teeth! He's really sweaty and I've caught his sats dipping into the 60s a few times. Don't worry MOM...I'm keeping him indoors and he's not out of my site. If his crazy mood lasts through the weekend, I'll call Dr. Mayman.
Nicole, our developmental specialist, came on Thursday. She's very happy with Mr. Isaac's head control. He has a few shaky moments at times...but, he's working hard on it! He can roll from his side to his back...but, he will NOT move from his tummy...he'll just cry until we roll him over! Stinker! Eli and Chris had a few friends over last night...needless to say, their rooms are trashed! These pictures of Isaac are indicative of his latest attitude...I couldn't get a smile to save my life (until I put the camera down).
**I almost forgot to tell you...Isaac's favorite cartoon is "Yo Gabba Gabba"...he starts smiling and doesn't look away for the entire show! He kicks away in that bouncy seat! I LOVE IT! (Eli loves it too!)

Okay everyone. Please watch Yo gabba gabba and then tell Kathy NOT to let her kids watch this show. My 5 year old likes it but it is a VERY STRANGE show. I can't wait until 10/26!! I get to go see the roller klan. Party time for the big kids.

Take care Kathy and I'll see you soon.

I know I know...my kids are addicted too! It's the craziest thing. It is very strange, but I find myself singing "there's a party in my tummy" quite often. Does that mean I'm strange :-)

Cute updoo Isaac...I luv it!

Hey Kathy,
We finally did watch it last week. They actually watched it. The next day they were a little ill so I realized what time it was and turned it on. It worked wonders!
It does teach stuff it you sit and watch. They learned up/down, to
'shake it off' if someone makes them mad/upset, and counting :)
A little different, but educational! Hope Isaac gets feeling better real soon! Love ya, Abby
