Crazy Days...

This week has been crazy...
Matt likes to take off his clothes now, diaper included. This is what happens when he puts his shorts back on with both legs through one leg hole.
On Tuesday, I drove both kids to San Diego for Matt's rechecks with the endocrinologist and gastroenterologist. This is the fog as we came down the mountains into SD. It looked like water. The endocrinologist was happy with Matt's growth. We don't need to see him again! The gastroenterologist was also happy with Matt's growth but decided that since we still measure what Matt eats in bites, he recommended Matt have an endoscopy. It is not scheduled yet, but will hopefully happen before Thanksgiving. The doctor will check Matt's esophagus for an allergic reaction, celiac disease, reflux... The doctor would also like for us to join a feeding team in San Diego. It is composed of occupational therapists and doctors that deal with feeding disorders to help encourage Matt with his eating and make suggestions.

We're also changing from PediaSure to Boost which will have more calories per serving. More phone calls to Tricare = more frustration as I get sent to talk to the next person where I have to re-explain our situation. Trying to file claims for his formula has been very annoying! I have spent way too much time dealing with it.

Matt loves to help with the dishes.
