It has been great to have a low key "normal" week at home with Holden. The little monkey had his 6-month check up with his
pediatrician and an appointment with his GI doctor this week. Both appointments went well and the doctors think Holden looks better than ever. We have a consultation with a surgeon next week to discuss his reflux and hernia surgery. Assuming things continue to go well, we will likely schedule the procedure for sometime in October. Although I hate that Holden will have to endure another surgery and hospital stay, we are very hopeful that this will provide the relief he needs, so he can get back to feeding by bottle and soon move to more solids.
Speaking of solids, Holden is loving to taste the variety of solid fruit baby food that Mommy has been offering him. At this point, he is probably wearing more than he is actually swallowing, but he seems to like it!
We continue to deal with the teething (extra drool, fussiness, etc.), but no signs of a tooth yet!
The little guy has enjoyed visits with Grandma Rosanne and then Grandpa Dave this week. And Grandma
Deda is coming down from North Carolina this weekend. Lots of "loving" for the little monkey!!
