Turning 3!

Jim Beau is now 3!!  Yea!   He had a great, wild birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese with some family and friends.

Raccoon hat from Aunt B and Uncle Eddie

 Dump Truck cake!



He got his very own Leapster Explorer so that he doesn't have to fight Sissy for hers and a cool Lightening McQueen car and so much more.  Thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate!

On a medical note, the PH Study we had done came back normal.  Jim Beau did such a great job during the 24 hours he had to wear the thing.   They did a GI scope and everything looked wonderful with no damage from reflux.   Below is a picture.  He had a tube coming out his nose that was attached to a box he had to wear like a purse.  They gave us "no no" arm bands that he was supposed to wear.  The arm bands looked like big casts and he couldn't move his arms!  It was pitiful so we took them off and just watched him carefully.  We didn't want him pulling the tube out and ruining the test.  He did great and it was worth it to get results that were normal.


 We also had an ultrasound of his liver because  Dr. Duffy thought his liver seemed large.  The results were that his liver is large...in the 95th percentile, but everything else about the liver looked good.    Cardiology check up this week went well, too.   Everything is stable so we just keep doing what we're doing and have check ups every 6 months.

We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!  We are looking forward to Christmas!
