By the Bullets...

• The little guy had his Echocardiogram last week and his little holes in his heart are still there and still very small. So far not causing any problems and will hopefully close up in a year. For now, we wait.
• The little guy also had his pulmonlogy appointment yesterday and is doing great! He is off all his meds and is growing enough to show the doctor that he isn't using up too much energy trying to breathe. For the first time ever, he hasn't been breathing fast and the doctor noticed right away. He was very happy with his progress and the fact that he hasn't been sick in his 6 months of life. Looks like my craziness IS working!
• The boys had their first RSV shots last weekend and it was NO FUN! So far one of the more painful shots, and we have to do this every month for 7.more.months. UGH! (RSV season is October through April-May)
• Our pediatricians office tried to jip us for 4 of our RSV shots and only wanted to give the boys 3. They said something about cost vs. benefits (They cost $1100 each shot and they need a total of 7-8 shots each) I told them we are getting our damn shots if I have to pay for them myself! (I really don't want to pay for them myself!)
• I told the little guys pulmonologist about the RSV shot issue and he said if our pediatrician wouldn't give us the full 7-8 to transfer to his clinic (Children's Hospital) and he would make sure we get every.single.one. I love him! They take breathing very seriously at CHOC!
• I've been shopping like crazy. I won't be going back to work for another 3 months but I have no clothes that fit me, I never would have imagined I'd lose so much weight breastfeeding! Finally a positive to having my boobs sucked on or pumped all damn day! I am down 71 pounds from delivery day...amazing!
• Of course, I got the boys a bunch of clothes and some beanies while I was shopping! Everytime I go into their drawers to pull an outfit (apparently not very often since we only ever go to the damn doctors office!) they outgrew it! Good thing they mostly wear jammies since we don't leave our bat cave! They have a million jammies in all sizes!
• I'll be 29 in two weeks... how did that happen?
