Sorry it has been.a couple of weeks since my last post. There is a lot to catch you up on at school and some activities Logan and I have done during the month of October!ππ
As you all know our little man turned 3 this month!! He had a very special Birthday Celebratiom surrounded by lots of Family. I know Mommy caught you up on all of thatπ
Logan and I have tried to stay pretty busy when he is not in therapies or school. October is usually a nice time to be outside but not this year in Atlanta....so hot! But there were a couple of days that were bearable, so we took advantage of it! Some of our activities included the Zoo and walking around Marietta Square. Each place was decorated with Spooky Fall Decorations and of course lots of Pumpkins!!
Scarecrows in the Square!
Fall Fun at the Zoo!!
Spider-Man!!
Watching my favorite big brothers play football!!
Alex cuddles are the best!!
My Fave new park!!
This month in School the kids worked on the colors Orange and Red. They talked about Community Helpers and of course all things Fall. Logan continues to enjoy his Walker "Bike"! He also has lots of friends that want to help and play with him!! His best buddy is Sam. Their little Frienship is adorable! Sam is very protective almost possessive over Logis.. He lets everyone know he is the only one that can push Logan in the car or tickle him when he is sad.
Logan ventured out and also began to enjoy Finger Painting and playing with Playdough. He is usually all about the Electronics! He has become quite social and very talkative! Our little Parot for sure!
Playdough Artist!
Unfortunately Logie wasn't feeling very well for Halloween but he did get to put on his Superman outfit for us and look the part. Bummed he missed out on the trick or treating but there is always next year! :)
Therapies have been going well, look at him standing on the horse!!! There is also a video of him swimming below, I warn you it is quite long but you can see what a little fish he has become!! We had to say goodbye to one of our favorite PTs this week unfortunately due to our new schedule coming up, we will miss Lisa a bunch!!
Miss you Lisa!! Thanks for everything!
I think that is all for now, sorry for the long catch up we will try to be more regular just been a busy busy month! Until next time... :)
4 weeks is so tiring!! Our little man is officially 4 weeks old now! It is amazing how far he has come and how much he looks like a little baby now. The past 4 weeks have definitely been hard ones but it is reassuring to see how far he has come and I know we still have a little ways to go but we have made great progress so far... Things continue to be pretty stable with Logan over the past couple of days, we are still on the nasal cannula and at level 7, so no big movement there. We think that some of this has to do with the fact that he had to be intibated for so long, but the doctor is trying him on some diuretics to see if that may help as well. He said there is a chance that there is some fluid in his lungs causing it to be a little harder for him to get stable on his breathing so fingers crossed that will work, it seemed to be a little better yesterday. As of Thursday night he is weighing in at 4lbs 14.5oz so we are almost to 5 pounds....
Happy Boy!! First I want to say I am sorry it has been so long since my last update but I am going to try to find the time (somewhere between working full time, the doctors appts and traveling to see clients) to keep you all updated on Logan's Journey, as it is quite a unique one. I have realized that this journey can be very lonely at times and that is my doing by not sharing as much as I could but hoping that this might be an outlet to get our story out there to the friends and family that love us so much and possibly anyone else going through the same thing. My first birthday...the cake was more fun to smash than eat!! Anyways, so I guess I have a lot to update everyone on, so bare with me on this first post! :) Ever since the Infantile Spasms stopped in July, Logan has been seizure free...WOOHOO!! He takes seizure medication twice a day to keep them at bay but from what we are able to tell they have stopped which is great news. Sin...
The title of this post says everything although you may not realize what it means...we have finally hit 2 very exciting milestones related to 5 & 6. Let me break them down for you... I like 5 & 6! As of yesterday morning our little man is now weighing in at 5 pounds 1.7 ounces!!! That means in just one month he has grown almost 2 pounds and is now the size of some regular term babies (albeit small ones). Also, now that he is 5 pounds he can get in a carseat safely (which means we can take him home as soon as everything else is ready) and he is almost growing out of his preemie clothes! Now on to 6...as of Wednesday afternoon they were able to finally move Logan down on his High Flow Nasal Cannula from level 7 to level 6. I was a little worried how he would do on this but honestly he is doing better than when he was at level 7. When I held him on Thursday he did the best he has ever done, he didn't drop his vitals too many times and f...
