Some Good News, Some Uhh news

I took Landon to the doctor yesterday afternoon, He was just not feeling well and with Katlyn and Chloe here and they have been sick and on meds, so I decided to go ahead and take Landon after he was naping and breathing hard. I was glad to hear his doctor say he has a really bad cold in his chest, she gave him some meds to knock it out of him. If he starts to run any fever in the next week we have to go back in that day, we can not wait. If he spikes a fever on new years day we are to go into the ER. Uhh, Please don't run a fever, I keep telling Landon that. He has been feeling awful today and I am guessing he'll be that way another few days.---Great.

We did get some good news, Dr. McNair got the Report from Dr. Crissinger (the GI) and his Iron Level was 12.6!! YAY!! The other number was a little low it's a %, the only time that is a problem is if he was to bleed alot, his body will not or can not replace lost red blood cells as fast as someone with a high %, but it is all good enough to go off the Iron Drops. He normally thows the Iron and what ever it is that I tried to hide it in up after a few minutes any how. We have added alot of Iron rich foods and Vit.C foods to his diet and I think that has helped more than the drops ever did.

Some more uhh news, Landon weighed in at 21 pounds. So he has lost a little weight. I am thinking it is because he is walking a lot well more like running around all day, and he has come off the formula he was on and gone to Slik Soy milk, So we are adding Calories to his diet with, Butter, Grays, and Oils. When we were going to the feeding Clinic they taught me how to add these things with out messing up his little tummy. We go back in a month if he has lost any more weight we will have to go back to the GI before April, and if I want back to the Feeding Clinic, I love the people at the feeding clinic, but I do not think they could help with this I have learned a lot from them, but Landon eat very well so I don't think going back there will work. I think it's just a calorie thing and if we need to we might have to put him on Pedicare a few times a day. I am in high hopes adding things to his foods will be all that he needs.

Well, that's it what a doctors appointment!!
