Since I last wrong, much has changed! I got pregnant with Eli, and he was born December 17th, 2009. He was due January 1st, 2010. He had his first birthday, and it was so bittersweet. My baby boy has grown up into a walking little man! He first took his noticeable walking steps, about 12 of them, on New Years Day, 2011. We were so excited, and he was so proud of himself, saying "YAYYY!" and putting his hands up in the air. We have video of him doing it, it's so fricken adorable!
Now my baby is 13 months old, he had his checkup on Monday. He's 19lbs 1oz and 28.5 inches tall. He's in the 3rd percentile for weight, and height I can't remember. For his head size though, he's 85 percentile. He has a huge head like his big sisters! Lots of brains! =) He's on track for everything, it was a great check-up, BUT.... we have to see the surgeon, again. Last time we saw him was in March 2009. He recommended surgery back then, but we decided to wait just in case he grew into it or it closed. Not it has stalled at about 8mm of a hole in the muscle wall. The risk of his intestines coming through is too great right now, as opposed to the surgery, so we will have to go through with it. Of course the last thing I want is for my baby to be in surgery. My poor little man, I can't imagine. He's SUCH a Mama's boy, he seriously follows me around the house EVERYWHEREEEEE I go! I can't imagine him waking up in the recovery room without his Mama at his side. I am going to be a big ball of tears.... I just want my baby safe and sound in my arms, healthy and happy.... healthy & happy...
Speaking of my little man, he slept in late today, and he just woke up. I will continue to write later, I have a BOOK to write!
