Gavins second month

Gavin had two different stomache bugs in the last month. A good look at the last stomache bug was he figured out the taste of pedialyte. Once we gave him the pedialyte he wasnt willing to go back to the formula. I think he had a sugar high because he wouldnt sleep for more than 15 minutes at a time. Though he was vomiting quite a bit it did not stop his gaining weight. He is now close to 11 pounds! This week he went into his 0-3 outfits. I informed him he was OLD news due to the fact that he is no longer in newborn outfits. I apparently I made him a bit angry becuase he started telling me off in his little baby language. Throwing his arms, kicking his legs, and mumbling those angry infant words. Well he got over it real quick after i told him that he was growing up to be a big boy. We went to see Dr. Atkins this past month. She had some reassuring news. He may not have Long QT Syndrome. She said it may be a phase that she has seen many times before. I am having a genetic test done the end of this month and they will find his gene to test it. They will be able to come up with some solid answers to the future. We are crossing our fingers that it is the phase and not the Syndrome. Although his medicine was increased because his ekg wasnt to par. She told us that the medicine would not hurt him if in the long run he never had the QT. For now it is better to be safe than sorry.A week later we took him in to get his 8 weeks shots. Gavin is amazing when it comes to needles. He screams the instant he is poked and then afterwards acts like nothing even happened. He whined for a bit after all three of his shots but he drank a bottle and went right to sleep. We arrived home and gave him tylonol as needed throughout the next 48 hours for his fever. He is way more content with pain than i could ever be that is for sure! He has really learned how to talk in just the last couple weeks. There isnt any distinquished words yet as far as matt is concerned but I still think he says MA MA. He kicks and throws his arms about like maybe hes beating someone up or trying to runaway from home. Im not too sure what he trying to do but sometimes its amusing. He has definately found his hands to his mouth. He learned to suck on his hand, get it full of drool and wipe it all over his face. After soaking his face with his own drool we go to kiss him and we get his drool on our face. I have cought him smiling and giggling over it a time or two! As far as normality goes he is doing great. I thank God everyday because it could be alot worse than what were dealing with now. The stomache flu may be hard for the time being but its better than hospitilizations and the minor heart issues are very mild. Just think Before we know it he will be out in the woods hunting for his first buck. He already admires Matts first buck hanging on the wall. I told him one day soon you will get your very own. Matt thinks he will get one bigger than his and if he does i will be so proud. It will be mounted right next to daddys trophy buck. Its not the size, it is the effort and fun you put into it.
