7 Blessed Months with more to come








Well, since the last time we talked, there has been a little excitement in Grady's world. First thing, he is 7 months old today. It is so hard to believe that this little guy has been blessing our world for the past 7 months. Man, how time has sped by. As you can see, he is quite the little sweety. He has not grown much, but with all the surgeries and infections, his little body has been concentrating on getting stronger and fighting to maintain. Once he is better, I believe he will start growing again. He has already gained some of the weight back. He lost over 1 pound and that is a lot of weight for this little boy.

Monday, Grady went back to the operating room. He did wonderful and Tuesday's MRI tells us that his procedure was successful. Thank you all for the prayers and support. Grady is doing well, this week. He no longer needs the pain meds and had his first bath today. We still can't wash his head (not much hair to speak of), but he did enjoy sitting in the warm water.

After a big bottle, he setted right down for an afternoon nap. Nap time is wonderful now that Grady has decided to participate. His new schedule has helped with that. He gets his breakfast an hour earlier, now. Yesterday, he took 5 mls more than he usually does. We decided he was needing some dessert.

Well, I will not promise to get better about the updates. Seems like every time I do, something happens that keeps me at the hospital longer. So, I will update the next chance I get and hopefully that will be soon. As always, we can never thank you enough for all of your love, support and prayers.

Talk soon,

JoJo
