Children's Museum and dr update

Last Friday, Jack and I and our friends Samantha and Kaden headed down to Indy for a pulmonologist appointment and for a day of fun at the Children's Museum. First I will tell about the pictures, then I'll will tell about the appointment. Fun things first!!!

Jack was so happy to see John Deere stuff there. This is the bull dozer that he got to sit in. He was in heaven!
This was in the nutrition section and Jack and I were sitting with "Couch Potato"

This is also in the nutrition section. jack eating pretend food...too bad it's not real!!

This is the "potato" head that Jack and I made together!

This was a pretend ice cream parlor (Kaden in the background). This was actually pretty funny because there were a bunch of older girls in there pretending that the parlor was really busy and carrying on about that. One of them asked Jack if he wanted ice cream and he said "uh huh" and then she took it right back from him because she was "too busy" and he just looked at me like what the heck are these girls doing!!!

This was in their library. A "little tykes" computer. It was adorable and as you can see, he knows exactly what to do with the mouse and everything.

this movie above was supposed to be a picture but I had it on the movie mode but it turned out cute. it's a picture of Jack kissing Curious George in the new exibit at the museum.

So now for the doctor's appointment update. It went fairly well. We had an appt to get his RSV shot on the Wednesday before and he weighed 22 pounds 10 ounces and that was a bit of a loss from the previous month so I knew that we needed to talk about that. Also, he had a bit of a cold at the shot appt and the respiratory therapist said he was rattly in his chest so I was concerned on Friday about how he sounded. Well, good news there, dr said he sounded clear and his heard sounded good and all that jazz. I told him about his weight loss, we talked about his eating habits, or lack there of, and he wasn't too happy with his weight. (He is at less than 3rd percentile for weight and height). Although he didn't like it too much, he said he wasn't concerned right now because his pulmonary function is not being compromised because of it. He said if he continues to have this problem than he may want to do a sleep study to see if he desats at night causing him to use up calories to breath. He doubts this is happening but it would be worth checking in to. He said it might just be is metabolism or a caloric thing and we just have to give him some time. Although he is a bad eater. For example...he ate nothing for dinner tonight!!! YAY!!! and drank about 1 oz of milk all day. Thank goodness for multi vitamins i guess.

So all, in all the appt went ok and we go back in May! At that time he may change some medications around to start weaning him off the steriod.

I hope that you all enjoyed the pictures and just so you know....I have another topic to post on but I will wait a few days to do that. Jack got his very own............brand new.....................................
