Update on our (many) doctor visits…

Well, it has been a crazy week around here.  Caleb has been having really bad headaches, so his neurosurgeon wanted us to meet him at the Children’s ER (it was his hospital day) to go ahead and run tests on Caleb’s shunt, just to make sure…  All the tests came back clear (of course he didn’t have a headache that day!)  But the pain came back the next morning!  He has pretty much been down with a H/A since yesterday morning.  The weird thing is that he does fine if he is lying flat, but when he sits up, it starts hurting again.  This is the typical time of year for him to have headaches, but they just seem worse than normal this year.  We went to the pediatrician again today, and they seem a little perplexed!  So they just want me to watch him for a few more days.  (I can increase the ibuprofen that he takes, so maybe that will help!)  All this to say, please keep praying for our little guy!

Alec is doing well, just has a little bit of a residual cough from being sick.  I can tell he is still more tired than normal, so he has been taking naps this week!  :-)  

I had an OB appt. yesterday.  All is going well – nothing much to report.  It was just a quick visit.  I go back in two weeks, and I will also have another ultrasound.  I am 34 weeks today!  So hard to believe!  The weeks are flying by.  We hope to paint Ella’s room this weekend.  We will see how that goes! 

Well, that is the excitement going on at our house.

    I’ve been praying for Caleb. I hope he’s better before we come. Poor kiddo :-(
