Fish Dog

Drew loves the water so much that you'd think he was part fish....

...or is he part dog???

Yup, that first squeal is Drew!

Short Video

I never could get blogger to upload this, so here is a You Tube video! It's nothing fancy, just Drew "reading!" He LOVES books.

In other news...Some fun was had this month!

Mother's Day 2011

Mimi with her 2 favorite little Fleas

We've been a wee bit preoccupied this past month. I can't imagine why! :) So I've failed to post any of the cute things that Drew has done. I shot 2 quick videos this evening to show you some of his recent doings. The neuro doctor told us to count Drew as walking from when he took his first unassisted steps. So technically, he's been walking since early April. But in reality, he's only been what we consider a walker for the last several weeks. Sorry we didn't celebrate this milestone more! We were consumed with medical worries :) But....we have a walker! He can even turn corners and go into different rooms, etc. now! Yay!!

P.S. Apparently the 2nd video doesn't want to load tonight...It's a cliffhanger until I can get it to work!

Update on Drewski

We had Drew's "big" neuro appointment today and it was good news all around! All his tests have come back normal so far (and there were a LOT of tests). Thanks be to God and thank you all SO MUCH for the prayers.

There were 2 separate issues - the seizure & the calcification they found with the MRI. They aren't necessarily related. Update on the seizure: There is nothing to indicate that he has epilepsy. The doctor said that basically there is still a 50/50 chance that he will have another seizure, so we will cross that bridge if we come to it. Update on the calcification: They believe it was caused by a virus I had while pregnant (seriously, I was sick for less than 2 days - didn't even think it was a big deal)! It could cause developmental delays, but as of now, he's on track with his milestones & the doctor isn't worried. We chose to have him evaluated a little more in depth, just to catch anything that a developmental specialist might see. That won't happen for a few more weeks. Again, the doctor thinks he's fine, so we are thankful beyond measure! (The calcification could also not effect him in anyway, which is what we are hoping and praying for).

P.S. His new doctor is literally a brain surgeon who graduated from Harvard Medical -- YESSSSSSS!
