Our little guy is so tough!

Well, I think we are finally about done with all the Doctor appointments. Our little guy is so tough. He has had to be under the UV lights as much as possible because of the Jaundice and we've had his blood drawn 3 different times to keep checking to see if it has gone down and finally it has. Yay!! It was a pain to try and keep those eye protectors on him, but he started to get use to it and as long as we put them on when he was a sleep he did okay! And we went to the Pediatric Eurologist this week in Las Vegas and he looked at the film from Ammon's ultrasound after he was born and The VCUG (cathider test) to check for reflux of the urine and he said we can stop the antibiotics because he only has a grade 1 of the reflux and it should eventually go away by itself.... yay! Things are looking good. Our little Ammon is so strong! He has to have another ultrasound on his kidneys at 6 months and then at 1 year old. But, I think everything will be fine. We also got the Circumcision done this week... I'm glad that's over :) The Pediatric Eurologist also said being circumcized will also help for a lesser chance of urinary tract infection, which he will have to be checked for every time he has any kind of fever or is sick in any way because of his kidneys. So, hopefully now we can get in the Christmas mood... I haven't even thought of how close Christmas is because we've been running around to the doctor and trying to get use to a new baby. But, now I think we'll start baking some Christmas goodies and getting in the Christmas spirit! :) And wow... I'm so glad Artie took 3 weeks off, he's such a big help, I'd probably be going crazy right now with the 3 kids if he left me already. Hopefully I'll survive when he goes back!
