Doctor Updates

Sam in his jammies and Fireman get-up Uncle Robert got him for his birthday.



Tuesday we took the babies to Children's Hospital for their swallow study. Baxley is the one who chokes the most, but when it came test time she did great. Sawyer started aspirating almost immediately. We explained that was what Baxley usually does so they told us to start thickening both of their bottles. So far they are doing great with the changes. We will later have to go back to see if they are no longer aspirating before they can stop using the thickener.



Wednesday we took all 3 to the Children's Clinic in Jonesboro. It was Sam's 2-year check-up and the babies received their 2nd RSV shot. We made it surprisingly well with all 3 of them.

They weighed the babies while we were there, Sawyer weighs 10 pounds and Baxley weighs 9 pounds.



2- Year Stats on Sam
  • He weighs 30 pounds and is 341/2 inches tall
  • He is talking so well and has a great vocabulary...he amazes me everyday with the things he knows and the sentences he puts together.
  • He loves talking about: his brother and sissy and tells everyone, "brother cries", tractors, combines, the shop, bins, and anything that has to do with farming, the girls (Emmaline and Elizabeth), big trucks, Thomas the Train, ambulances, hats, books, outside, his show, and anything else daddy is into.
  • He knows where Nonna's house is
  • He loves to look at pictures and name everyone in them
  • He is a great eater and will eat almost anything, except peanut butter
  • He loves juice and his cup which we think is his security
  • He goes to sleep around 7:30 and sleeps until 7:00. He goes to bed so good at night!!!
  • He is a great big brother, when Sawyer cries he says, "Come on mommy brother crying" and he tries to give him his pacy
  • He is so social and outgoing and is so happy
  • He amazes me everyday and I am so proud of him
  • I Love You Sam!!!
