Rash Boy and Fat Lady...Coming Soon to a Krispy Kreme Near You

Today we went to see the Endocrinologist again since Niko's latest test results showed it coming back a little high again. She isn't too worried, Taki will take Niko in for an ultrasound tomorrow and he'll have to do a blood draw again (yuck!) to check results one more time. If anything comes up on the ultrasound or if his levels are high again he will have to be put on a very low dose of meds until he is about 2-2.5. The doc didn't seem to worried and neither are we...but we'll keep you posted.

Highlight of the visit occurred when the Dr. asked me if I was due...wait for it...in NOVEMBER. It is OCTOBER people. Yeah. You should have seen her tripping all over herself when I told her I wasn't due until March. It was actually kind of comical.

On another note, Nikos was in to see his pediatrician yesterday since the poor guy picked up some virus and came down with a rash all over his body. Our pedi said it is probably just the way that Nikos deals with viruses. After checking his height (30") and weight (19lbs 14oz) she did say that she was happy with his progress because he is back on the growth chart, holding steady at 5%. Go Nikos!

We thought Nikos looked like he was putting on a little weight -- it's confirmed! He just burns off those calories way too fast zooming all over the place.

I think I saw an ad with a baby in a pumpkin (of course, the ad was obviously photoshopped.) Ha! You can try it for #3 Torina!
