Isn't his smile adorable in the picture below? He is the happiest little guy out there. The Doctor also decided we needed to do some blood work to make sure things are ok. Tomorrow we are
going for a sweat test to rule out the really bad stuff and Thursday we start physical therapy. This
all sounds a little crazy I know, but better safe than sorry.
Now lets focus on all of the amazing things Leland can do:
*He is a really smiley happy baby he enjoys watching his sisters clowning around
*Rolling is HUGE for him he really just rolls and rolls all over the floor which is fun
*Great hair, he can rock a faux hock.
*Playing with toys, I have never had a child enjoy rattles and stuffed animal so much
I know things sound a little all over the place but that is how I work. As for me right now I am struggling with all of this. I feel for my baby because he has poked by more needles in the past 6 months than most people experience in a lifetime. I wonder if I am doing something wrong to cause these issues but the Doctor assures me that I am not. When they gave him his shots and blood draw on Monday cried a little which isn't like me. I don't do public emotion alot. I also don't like to cry when I am scared in front of the children because it just makes things worse. But as Dr. Scheck is telling me that she is VERY concerned with Leland development I cried. The unknown is a difficult thing and I think it was appropriate to have a teary eyed moment.
I will try and update in the next few day.

hang in there, i know exactly how you feel if you ever want to "talk" again! you can do this. and it is ok to cry, if it weren't, i would be in a lot of trouble. also, i feel so much that Will's physical therapist is my therapist too. i think i cry every time we meet, and i can vent to her, anyway, have a good session and just ask all the questions you have at your therapy appointment and let me know how it goes!!! you are a great mom, and somehow in all of this, there will be blessing and goodness, promise. take care friend.
ps, he is beautiful!!! oh. my. gosh.
