Since New Year’s Cards are going out, I guess I should update
I guess there is some updating that needs to happen before people start receiving their New Years (yes, New Years, not Christmas) cards.
So, where did we leave off? Endocrinologist. Right. We got the lab results, and while the celiac and growth hormone stuff came back normal (yay!), there was some suggestion that he may have mild hypothyroidism. Interesting, because we thought there was a possibility of hyperthyroidism. The expected cause was autoimmune hypothyroidism, and the thyroid test and a few others needed to be done to confirm. When the results from those labs came back, the thyroid hormone was still a bit off, but not enough to treat and no indication of autoimmune disease, so we just leave it be. We'll follow-up in 6 months.
Other than that, there was Halloween. We went out with Eddie's friend Elise again. They were cute.
A little bit after that, we went up to a cabin in the mountains for Thanksgiving. It was lovely.
While we were in the mountains, Mark ran his first 5K.
Earlier this month, we went back to the eye doctor to see about getting the tear duct tubes removed. Turns out they had fallen out on their own, and things are looking great. We'll go back in a year for a follow-up.
And after that? Christmas. Eddie got a Batcave, see?
Okay, I think we're up to date now!
More photos from the past three months have been added to gratefulgrateful.shutterfly.com.
MrBaby Archive: Blog 2
Not much new to report in the post-Christmas letdown. Obviously, no Mr. Baby yet. We had a nice Christmas, making the rounds to the families and getting to spend some quality time with everyone. For the first time since we've been together, all of the families have been in Georgia for the holiday. Mr. Baby had quite the Christmas, getting a pretty impressive amount of stuff for someone who does not exist in the real world yet. We also got a camera to take pictures of him with... that should make this site a little more interesting.
Perhaps the only real "news" to report is the addition of the Calendar and FAQ sections on this site. The Calendar features exciting (ha!) baby dates, including our next OB appointment and non-stress test on Friday. The FAQ lists some of the questions that I frequently get, as well as their answers. I thought it'd be kind of mean just to list the questions out with no answers...
Let me know if there is anything you'd like to see on this site. More than likely, if you've reached this page, you know how to contact me! (And if you don't, what are you doing here? :))
