Overdue Update


So I am so behind on updating Landon's Blog. Not much has been going on in our house. We had a great Easter and the Easter Bunny brought Landon's lots of nice things. We went to the lung Dr. about two weeks ago and they were so impressed with Landon that they discontinued his use of oxygen all together! They did tell us to keep it around for awhile till we know for sure if he is going to need it again or not. We also went to Centennial this past Friday for our post NICU evaluation and although we are behind on a few things like rolling and sitting they are very impressed with him and feel he is not very behind for what he should be. At this appointment Landon weighed in at 19lbs 9oz and is 28in long. Whew no wonder my arms hurt so bad after toting him around. Afterwards we went up to the 7th and 8th floors to visit with the awesome nurses who took care of Landon while we were there. They could not get over how much he had grown and were so pleased to hear how well he was doing since his scare with pertussis. It is always so nice to visit with them because they get so excited everytime they see one of their babies doing so well. Other than that, we are just enjoying this wonderful weather and the chances we get to go outside now.

Quick Update


Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Not too much going on in the household these days. Landon is doing very well. We just can't seem to get rid of that nasty cough but I have been reassured by the pediatrician that he is fine and that he is just going to be a wheezy kid till he out grows the trachmalcia. We went to the Pulmonologist on Friday and even though he hasn't been wearing his oxygen for quite sometime now the Dr has officially discontinued the use of oxygen at home. He asked us to keep all the equipement till our next apt in May just to make sure he doesn't get into any trouble. That is fine with us, we are just so glad that we are finally back to where we can go without it now. Other than that Landon is just trucking along. Current weight is 18lbs 9oz and 26 1/2 in long.

I got the results from my biopsy and unfortunately it didn't come back as they wanted it so I will be going in May to have surgery. The reason we are waiting till May is so that I can have insurance and won't have to pay out of pocket for it. I am so frustrated with this news because I had finally gotten to where I wanted to have more kids and with this new development its not looking very promising.

Well I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter. We are so excited about Landon's first Easter. Will post pictures tomorrow on facebook of Easter.
