A busy day.



Sound asleep.
Rocking tonight with Robyn...the bump on his head is where the stitches are located from the shunt surgery.

Austin went to the pediatrician for the first time today. He did great. He slept the entire time (1 1/2 hours) in the waiting room and made very little fuss during his check-up.

The doctor said he looked just fine and healthy.

We had visits from both sets of Austin's grandparents today. We all had a great time. He can't get enough attention from the family and Robyn and I love having all of you over to the house.

My mother was thrown a "Granny Shower" at work today and was simply astonished at how giving and caring everyone was. Robyn and I would like to extend a very special thanks to everyone who attended this shower. It means so much to us that you all would go to such great lengths for us and our little boy. God bless you all! We will definitely bring him by the office as soon as we can so he can meet each of you.

The week after next brings more appointments and another trip to Forth Worth. I will let everyone know how that goes in a later entry.

Hi,
It's good to hear what great support you are getting. That's so important!

Robyn, do you remember I told you that Julia couldn't reach for things or sit up? I kept up with the exercises the therapist gave us and saw the improvement eventually. Don't get discouraged if you don't see immediate results.

An 1 1/2 hour wait at the doctor? Ouch!
