10.19.11 - GI Update

Liam's GI appointment today went great! We met to discuss possibly taking out his tube after his cardiology check up scheduled for December 2. We hadn't seen the GI since Liam was 4 months old...which I guess is a good thing! We talked for awhile about his eating, drinking and "output" and then she asked me if he had been sick since we weaned him last April. I initially said no, but then remembered he did have a period of about 4-6 weeks of a cough. She said as long as he has experienced some time of illness that would cause him not to eat, and he did ok, then we should be good to go on taking it out! This was GREAT news for us! 2 doctors down, and 1 more to go! I can't wait for December to get here...this day has been so long coming for us...PRAISE GOD!

Things have been busy busy around here, as usual! I have been working a few more hours the past couple weeks helping out at work (usually it's only 1 day a week), so Liam's been at Mimi and Baba's quite a bit. I am hoping for some more normal weeks coming up though. I've noticed Liam gets a little cranky when his schedule is thrown off...he has been a little more devious and ornery more so than normal and VERY clingy. It's strange to me how aware he is of the smallest things and places now. He is SO sharp...very smart and picks up on things very easily. I feel very blessed to be called to stay home with him.

Speaking of home and family, Dustin and I had a date night last night and went to see the movie Courageous. It was amazing...life-changing. Unlike any other Christian film I've seen...beautifully acted, very well produced, just an awesome movie. If any of you get a chance to see it, it is well worth your ticket. I will warn that you need a box of kleenex out of your purse and sitting in your lap, before you get into the first 5 minutes of the movie =)
