Tis the season to be very busy

Well it has been a while since our last update. We are all doing well. We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Trey has started eating solid foods and is loving it. He had sweet potatoes for his first Thanksgiving dinner.

We took Trey to San Antonio for our first family vacation in early December. He did great on the trip. We were hoping to show him the riverwalk all lit up for Christmas but he slept through it. He did enjoy watching the German dancers at the German Christmas village with his Uncle John and Aunt Becca. He also got to meet his Great Aunt Susie, and cousins Donna, Luke and Kate on the trip.

We took Trey to see Santa at Bass Pro Shop and he decorated cookies with his Great Papa (a family tradition). We are just busy getting ready to celebrate Trey's first Christmas.

On another note we are happy to announce that Trey will be a big brother in June 2011.

We wish everyone a Happy and Safe Christmas and New Year. We posted Trey's latested pictures on our shutterfly webpage. http://sarahandvince.shutterfly.com/

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,

Trey ‘33

Adventures at Home

Hey everyone,
It has been a busy first two weeks here at home as I adjust to my new environment. I am loving being home. I can be held and loved all the time by my whole family. I have adjusted well, but mom and dad are still adjusting to my midnight feeding schedule. I have two beds set up. One is in my lovely room where there is a futon for mom or dad to sleep on and the other is in tha pack in play in mom and dad's room but my favorite place to sleep is in someones arms. I have started to meet some more people like Memo's brothers and sisters and look forward to continueing to meet everyone over the next few months.

I have had lots of doctor's appointments lately. I am still trying to gain weight but it is hard with this reflux I have, it makes it hard to keep my food down, somedays are better than others and hopefully I outgrow it soon. I decided I didn't like my feeding tube anymore so I ripped it out, at first one of the doctors wanted it put back in but the GI specialist said it should stay out. Yay freedom! I still have my monitor and it always gets in the way so I am hoping the pulmonologist will decide next week that I don't need it. The eye doctor said my left eye is well developed but wants to double check my right eye in a few weeks.

Mom and dad have set my baptism date for October 2nd and taken pictures for my birth announcements too. I went to Church for the first time the other day. I liked all the music but got fussy if they talked for too long. I also went on my first non-doctors appointment outing to go have dinner at Memo and Popo's.
