Callie and Tobin 7 months old

Callie now weighs 15 lbs, 4 oz (20%) and is 26" (30%). Tobin is 17lbs, 7 oz (30%), and 27" (45%). They are so fun right now. Both of them love to laugh and smile. They are interested in everything going on around them. They are both starting to eat more baby food. Callie "sings" along when we sing songs. Tobin is starting to do a type of a wave. We are waiting on the results form Callie's biopsy and blood draw. She was such a trooper with those uncomfortable tests. She cried for just a minute and then cheered right back up. After these results, we ill either know that it is just cutaneous (skin) mastocytosis or go in for more tests (including bone marrow biopsy) to see if it is systemic. We're praying it is just skin. We met with the allergist who gave us a prescription for an epi pen. In the event she is allergic to stings or certian types of food she will have a more severe reaction, so we have to be prepared. We are thankful for her overall good health, and hoping for the best. Tobin will be seen by a neurologist this next week. Our pediatrician is concerned that he may have a mild case of hypotonia (floopy baby). It seems like we've had more than our fair share of Dr. appts. lately. I'm glad I have a flexible schedule :)

First Letter

Sara wrote her first letter all by herself. She and her Aunt Georgia are going to be pen pals. It's amazing to see how she's able to write so many letters!! The idea of receiving mail all her own makes her super excited!
