It has been two weeks since the baby's birthday, and our life does not seem to get easier!!! Jorge is everywhere, wanting to grab everything, crawling like crazy, giving a few steps, throwing full blown tantrums . . .man it cannot get any better than this!!!!!!
We are doing great with his eating, I am now only giving him two bottles of milk through his g tube, and the rest of the food he takes orally. We found a bottle that instead of having a nipple, has a spoon, so we have been giving him milk with that, and it has been working fine, if I can get him to drink 4 of those a day, and 5 more meals, then we are ready to get the g-button out and finally go back to normal., meaning being able to go home and stay at one place, have some vacations without having to carry two suitcases filled with medical supplies!!!!
Jorge is growing super fast. He is 75 cm long, and weighs 9.2 kg. He is a very tall little boy, yet is very very thin. Doctors have told me that he is just a thin boy, but his weight is still in the 50th percentile, so I should not worry. He has to wear belts because clothes that fit his length do not fit his waist, and if it fits the waist, then it looks like if he is wearing capri pants!!! LOL
We are still in Maracaibo, we think next week we might be heading to Colombia, and then finally back home, after the holidays we might return to Colombia, and stay there and just travel back to the States for the baby to get his medical checkups, but again we no longer plan our life, LJ just tells us what we have to do, and then we do so!!!!!
