Happy Memorial Day everyone! Just checking in with what seems to be monthly updates. Not too much has happened since my last post, but I'll try to remember to include everything that has happened. Atticus is continuing to do really well, and is just crawling all over the place. He even gave me a special present today.....he stood up ALL BY HIMSELF!!! Hooooooorrrrraaaaaay!! He even managed to do it a couple of different times! That makes me one happy mamma!
Not too much has changed as far as the doctors all go. His cardiologist continues to be happy with his progress, and is still waiting for the 30lbs mark as the indicator for the next surgery. On a brighter note, we just visited his pulmonologist last week, and he said he thinks we can start trying to wean Atticus down on his O2 levels at night, with the eventual goal of getting him off O2. (yay!) No real changes other than that.
Atticus has also been doing really well on his feedings, and is starting to be more consistent with eating more than just a few bites, and we've even managed to get down a whole jar of baby food!! Whoo hoo!! He's also learning mores signs and is getting better at using them when he wants something. He's just getting to be such a big boy! When he stands, its amazing how tall he really is. I'm so used to seeing him in the sitting position, or crawling, that when I see him stand it just shocks me to see how tall he's actually gotten! Thanks for continuing to keep us in your prayers!
