One Month Old

Mr. Wilson is one month old today - although it's been a LONG month filled with lots of emotions and challenges, it's hard to believe our little guy joined the world a month ago!

I know that I need to post some new photos - trust me, I will do this soon. We went to Riley yesterday for his follow-up echocardiogram. Luckily there seems to be no coarctation (narrowing of the artery) - insert random dancing and screams of joy here. The cardiologist noticed two other things that she wanted to keep an eye on and recommended a follow-up echo next month. We will consult with our pediatrician more tomorrow morning, but more than likely we will have the echo at Riley again. Wilson's left ventricle is larger than his right and although this can be normal for a variety of reasons he doesn't possess any of the reasons for the enlargement. The other concern is that the speed of blood flow in one area of the aorta is faster than they would like.

Other than that things are going well. Only 20 DAYS LEFT UNTIL MY MASTER'S CLASS IS COMPLETE (Insert MORE jumping, hooting and hollering here!). Mitch is keeping busy with work and looking forward to the BSU Summer hours to begin shortly. Charley is loving staying at home; however he severely misses his buddy Reed and we've managed to see him almost every day this week.

More photos soon....pinky swear.
