Family Update

Hi All,



Just wanted to send out and update. I am finally back at my folks and online after almost 2 wks. My gallbladder is out and I am almost done healing. I am still unemployed. Mark's folks came up for a week to help out while I recovered and Grandma O. really got Abby going more with the walking. She is walking almost all the time time now. Abby is 14 months old now and so much more talkative and counting 1,2 1,2, (sometimes even to 6) and a bunch of Baby tongues my mom calls it and we wish we knew what she was saying. She is getting 4 molars and growing so much I can put her hair in a ponytail on the top of her head now because her hair is getting so long. Mark had to work days this week and he had to work over the weekend. It is good I was hoime or we would have had to come up with babysitting. Mom and Dad are getting back from Florida tomorrow. WE best go home and feed the baby and see if I can get her to nap. That should be a challange.



Love to All,

Cherilynn

Abby is 1!!

Hi All!

Well, Abby is a year old and 11 days! I had to wait to get this out as she just had her appointment last Friday. She started off the year with the stomach flu that lasted about a week and a half before she was acting like her self again which meant changing the party. She is now 20lbs 6oz 45- 50 percentile (which I think would have been more if not for the flu), she is 30 ½ inches tall which is the 87-90 percentile. She is tall. She is jabbering a lot more and is trying to walk when she feels like it. She cruses around the furniture, but won’t let go just yet. As for her Urinary tract infections she is still on antibiotics until I hear back from the doctor. She needs to contact the specialist. She is now is seems trying to get a cold. She loved Florida! I think I want to live there after a winter like this. Although Abby had her first sled ride yesterday and she seemed to like it. Mark wants to attach a harness to Annie so the dog can pull her around the yard! 

Abby is 10 Months Old!!

Hi All!

Abby is now 10 Months Old can you believe it! She is a goer and and climber and very strong willed! She is still working on those 4 top teeth. Actually she only has 2 that really still need to come through now.

Well, Abby had her tests at the U of M on Friday she was not happy. I thought the ultrasound would go ok, but she didn’t like the idea of being still. The other test as was worse for her as suspected. As there as a dr. in the room when it was done we found out right away that there was no reflux, so we don’t know what is causing the infections. We don’t have a follow up appointment with the specialist, so maybe she will call. I suspect this is something she will just have to out grow and until that time will be on antibiotics. I will let you know when I know more.

Here is couple of pictures from yesterday afternoon at a park.

Abby Specialist Update

Hi All!

Abby had her appointment with the Pediatric Urologist specialist at the U of M yesterday and she was charmer and happy the whole time. They want to do the kidney ultrasound to make sure her kidneys are growing right and the VCUG (this is where they put in a catheter and fill her bladder and shot some contrast through the cath to see if the urine is going back up to the kidney’s they will be doing this about 3 times to try and set off the reflux). Apparently UTI’s aren’t suppose to cause fevers and she has had fevers all three times the last time she had strep throat to which is why she was running a 104 temp I am sure. The fever means bacteria are in her kidneys from the urine sitting there. She will be on the preventive antibiotic until she is at least 1. If the tests show something she will be on them until she out grows the reflux or might need surgery in the future to fix it. We are hoping she will grow out of it.

Friday Nov. 7th she is having these tests done. She seems to lay nice and still for the doctors so we will see how she does with this. She also seems to have grown a ¼ of an inch and 7 ounces since last week. They were surprised how tall she is for her age.
