Oh how I am so bad about keeping this up! Piercen turned 4 months old on Saturday-yeah 4 months and I just can't even believe it. As I look back on what a rough start our tiny man had and all the challenges he and our family went through, we are just so blessed to have him in our lives. He is becoming more alert now, he loves to be talked to and his smiling at us. Houston and Ashlyn are so good with him and have been since we brought him home. I was a little nervous about how Ashlyn was going to react but she has been such a big help. They love to watch everything that we do with him, they love to hold and kiss him and love when he looks at them when they talk. Ashlyn always has to come tell me when Piercen is crying(as if we can't hear him). We took him in for his 4 month check up on Monday and he is now 11lbs.9 oz. Dr. Saba asked me if we put lead in his pants as he gained 2lbs. in 1 month.!! He is liking his swing alot now and sleeps in there for a long time, he is still not sleeping through the night but is sleeping for longer periods now. Today we had an appt. with the nerosurgeon to have him look at his latest head ultrasound and he want's to do another one and also do an x-ray of his spinal cord. He told me not to worry that it is done for precationary measures. As a mother it is hard to not worry about your baby, but for my sanity I am trying not to. I belive that GOD is on or side when it comes to this little guy, he has already done so much for him. We are waiting for the radiolgy office to call us with an appointment and are hoping that we can see him at the beginning of the week. And as always please pray that everything comes back well.
And I will post some new pictures as soon as I can.
