Oh me, oh my

Well, I think we've got what they call a Happy Spitter on our hands. If you're gonna hold the little cutie, it's important to either have a burp cloth or change of clothes for yourself handy. However, as a precautionary measure, his doctor is sending him for a stomach ultrasound tomorrow morning to check for a condition called pyloric stenosis. I'll save you the long explanation of what that is and just say that if he does have it, it will require a minor surgery to "relax" the flap that lets food from the stomach into the intestines.

The hardest part about tomorrow is going to be that he has to be food free for four hours prior to the ultrasound. Now, if you know our little piggy at all, you'll know that this is not going to make for a happy morning. His appointment is at 8am so his 3:30 feeding will be his last until after the procedure. Grandma Rita will be going with us so hopefully between the two of us, we will be able to keep him occupied and somewhat content.

Hopefully we'll get a good report from the radiologist tomorrow (wishful thinking that we'll get the results relatively soon?!) and then we'll just stock up on laundry detergent and bibs!
Enjoy the new pics!
