Future Fire Fighter

Robby absolutely loved the Open House at the Fire Station earlier this week! Fire trucks, tools, and a chance to hold the hose - what a treat! I really wanted to warn everyone while he was holding the hose. Usually he turns and starts spraying everyone who is nearby :)

Look at me :) What a cutie! Who knows, he may be a future fire fighter if building John Deere tractors doesn't work out!

Onto other news... Robby's sleeping is varying. At this point we tried eliminating his nap during the day in hopes he would go to bed earlier. While this has worked (yeah!), it has not gotten rid of him thrashing around nor talking/crying/waking up in the night. The battle continues. Right now I am hoping that we figure this out before I go back to work. And yes, Andy does sleep longer and better than Robby :)

Andy had another head ultrasound today. The neurologist said his head size was in the 75% still (good), but his ventricles (used for draining fluid) have enlarged a little. This could mean that fluid might be building up or not draining correctly. If they increase too much, Andy might need a shunt to help drain the fluid. At this point, the doctor wants to just monitor them, so we will go back in another month. I figure they can't be too bad since we don't have to see him sooner. Some days Andy's head is soft (the soft spot is indented like babies are supposed to have), so we don't think there is too much pressure being put on the brain. Really we're just playing the waiting game and hoping/praying for the best.
