Breaking news!!

Even though he can still sport size 2T clothes and is probably one of the only 4.5 year olds who can use a HAND towel as a bath towel...




Caleb FINALLY WEIGHS 30 POUNDS!!!!

30 pounds, 8 oz to be exact!! (He had his clothes on, but he always does now when he's weighed.) That puts him almost at the 5th percentile for weight! He also grew nearly an inch in 6 months and is now 38.3 inches. (Which still isn't on the growth chart...but who cares! He weighs 30+ pounds!!!)

He had a great pulmonary appointment today. His pulmonary function tests are still showing slightly low lung function, but his doctor was happy with the results. He feels that since C is so young, it's hard to get really accurate results. At this point it's mainly practice and to make sure he's not losing lung function. His pulse ox was 97% and his lungs were clear once again. His doc was thrilled to see him looking so good. He still wants us to take him to the sleep clinic, so that's something we will need to figure out.

He always charms the techs/nurses there with his little dimples and today he ended up with 8 prizes from the prize box. Such a stinker!
