It's hard being a boy......sometimes

Truman had a minor surgery on Tuesday. He was finally circumcised. I had wanted to do it when he was first born, but as we all know, there was too much going on for it to be considered. Since he has done so well in the past few months, the pediatrician decided he was stable enough to get it done. So, we were off to Primary's again. Thank goodness only for several hours this time instead of several weeks. Truman did great as he always does. He is such a little trooper. These pictures are before the surgery. He looked so cute in the little hospital scrubs they had us put him in. I just had to take some pictures. I'm pretty sure he knew exactly where we were and that whatever he was going to have done was not going to be fun, hence the worried look on his face.

He is doing great at home. We're just keeping him comfy as he heals. He gets Lortab every 4 hours and Motrin every six, so don't worry about him, he's gettin the good stuff.

New Blog

Hi Everyone. I have set up a new blog for myself. I am starting to find that I am at the computer alot looking for deals and trying to find ways to save money on everything. So, I'm kind of dedicating the blog to writing about those kind of things (good deals, homemade house goods, fun things to do with your family, and such). Just as fair warning. I have monetized it, so there are ads on there, but I don't think they are very distracting. Stop by if you feel like it.

Oh and by the way, Truman has four teeth now. Woot Woot!!

Happy Monday!

Last Friday we went to Primary's for a Cardiology check up. It looks like Truman's heart is doing pretty well. His blood pressures were great and his EKG has pretty much stayed consistent. His cardiology team will continue to monitor his Bicuspid Aortic Valve because there is a potential for problems as he grows into toddlerhood, but nothing is of concern right now. His cardiologists were very impressed with his weight gain. I think the word "Chunk" was said a few times during the visit. Truman is doing well enough that we can now stretch the checkups to six months instead of three. So, we'll go back in November for an echocardiogram and will hopefully be able to see how that valve is doing. Until then we'll keep on smilin. Have a good day everyone
