Happy 7 Months!!!

Happy 7 Months to our little tiger!

He is doing well lately...eating, rolling, almost sitting, jumping, teething, chatting up a storm! His next appointment is in about 3 weeks with his liver team.

Kyle is currently still on pregestimil. We had some left over and didn't want to waste it. Plus insurance sent some over. BTW, does anyone know if we can get retro back for the formula we brought prior to them approving it? I tried calling and it was an automatic machine talking to me, it's so annoying! He averages about 20-21ozs a day of 30 calories per fluid oz and has 1-2 solid feedings a day. He's super slick, he will not eat any plain oatmeal or rice cereal, we need to mix it with apple sauce. ha!

We are slowly started taking him out more. Mostly outdoors, however this past weekend we had brunch with our dear friend Kimmie and her son indoors, wasn't so bad. Kyle was just a little distracted with so much going on. He's starting to recognize places and people, so it takes him a minute to warm up. But once he does he's all smiles. He's such a happy baby. Hopefully in do time we can work up the courage to take him out out more often and enjoy the weather.

Here are some pics of our little tiger...

he doesn't really like to get spoon fed ...rather get it straight from the bowl

No more pregestimil...

What a way to start off a weekend!!! I got a voice mail today - Kyle is NO LONGER REQUIRED to be on his special formula! How amazing is that! Doctor feels that because his bilirubin has been going down he no longer needs the special formula ...aka pregestimil...aka that-stinky-thing. No more spending massive amount of money on just a can...but go figure when I got that voice mail 5 minutes later the insurance calls and tells me that insurance can cover the special formula. HELLO! where were they like a few months back???? So we're going to finish off what we have left of his formula at home before going back to regular one. The only thing is we have to still feed him 30 calories ounces until further notice. (does anyone know if similiac powder still has the recall? ) Hopefully we get a great reading on his weight tomorrow at the doctors so he will not need a feeding tube (we'll update tomorrow after his appointment).

we wake up to this smile every morning
