CMN Telethon - May 28, 2014

Owen is scheduled to do a live interview for the telethon on Saturday May 31st between 2:30 and 3pm ok KCBD channel 11. They also have a previously recorded interview that they will play sometime during the weekend as well. 

Owen has been struggling eat lately, we are not sure why, he has only gained 5 oz in two weeks compared to his normal 15 oz that he usually gains. 

Thursday we go to the immunatologist for some blood work to check his immunity levels. 

Monday we go back to see his pediatrition for a check up. Hopefully he will have a solution as to why Owen is refusing to eat at times.

June 10th we head to the cardiologist to make sure everything is still good since leaving the NICU.

This boy is growin fast!

8 months old - May 9, 2014

Owen is going to be 8 Months old tomorrow!! He is still gaining weight at a good rate, he really wants to catch up to his growth chart. He is 13lbs 7oz! He is almost on the growth chart for his adjusted age (4.5 months). We started solid foods over a week ago and he has really enjoyed it! It took his tummy a little time to get used to it but is handling it much better now. He has also learned to appreciate his glasses and we can tell that he can see a lot better.

Two weeks ago at his high risk appointment the doctor only had one concern, which was the back of his head is pretty flat. We are hoping keeping him upright as much as possibly can correct this, if not he will need to go see an ENT doctor about correcting it with a helmet.

We don't have many doctor appointments this month!! We are participating in the Children's Miracle network telethon on May 31st on KCBD. We interviews and photoshoots for that this week.
