Pumpkin Patch

Howdy Everyone!




I know it has been a long time since I’ve written; my apologies, we

have been very busy. Where to begin…well, I am doing well and continue

to grow (I’m currently at 9 ½ lbs). My reflux is finally subsiding,

which is very welcome news! I still spit up after many meals, but it

is less frequent and getting better. Mom and Dad are still feeding me

frequent small meals to help combat this. It seems like I eat all the

time, but if it works, so be it!



Speaking of feeding….I was getting bored with the same-ole’,

same-ole’. Rice, milk, formula, repeat repeat. Then, Daddy fed me some

oatmeal for the first time. My eyes went from sleepy to POP! and I ate

my bottle in record time. I really love oatmeal! Since then, it is all

I want to eat, and even take some by spoon.



I can now sit in the corner of the couch with support, and have pretty

good control of my head.



Mommy caught me roll over for the first time the other day, too! I

rolled from my back to front, and really scared myself and started

crying. I haven’t done it since and may wait till I’m a bit more

coordinated to attempt it again.



My baptism was a few weeks ago, and we had a big party. It was really

cool. I got some water on my head, just like at bath time (I really

like taking baths!). Since I’ve been healthier, I also got to meet a

lot more of my relatives; what a big loving family we have!


My future plans are to eat, rest, and get big as quickly as possible.

I still have quite a few appointments with specialists and doctors as

well, but so far, no news is good news on any lasting affects from my

prematurity.





Love to all,
