korb!

mid-september! its flying by.. just wanted to update everyone on korb. aka-the little man. year 2 is not as grand as year 1 so far! dont get me wrong.. he is so happy and so into everything! the phrase all boy has new meaning to me! however.. he did start out the month with a bad case of pink eye.. and after our family reunion visit to childress he was terribly congested. so when he made it to see Dr E on friday the 7th for his 1 year well-baby visit..he was not exactly well. the stats of the visit were .. 25lbs 13 oz. 32.25 inches tall. (ironically dalton had his 18 month well baby check up the following monday and their measurements were exactly the same.. jenny and i decided we would keep those 'stat sheets' to show them when they are older for sure!) so his visit was good and bad. she confirmed that he is genius..but we already knew that, right?!? jk! she did say that he is right on track or ahead of the game in motor skills and vocabulary. very healthy over all.. but she did have some concern about the wheezing she could hear in his little chest. so .. after a week of prednisone (a steroid used to treat the lungs) and breathing treatments every 4-6 hours we went back to see Dr E last friday. his lungs were better.. but still congested. she sent us for a chest xray (the results of which were very good) and referred us to a pulmonologist. nothing to worry about too much. just means he might have a slight case of asthma like mommy. very manageable. his appt with the pulmonologist is thursday. keep him in your prayers... and i will keep you posted!
