Good News

Well sorry it has taken so long to update this but I have been really busy with work. Recently Scott gained a pound and a half in the past two months!! This is really great for him as he was only gaining an average of half a pound a month!! He is doing a lot better with his oral texture sensitivity and is eating a lot more table food. Also they decided since Scott is over a year old he no longer needs to be on an infant formula but due to his milk and soy allergies he is on a one year and older formula which is hypoallergenic and is prescription only. It is called Elecare and it is great because it is 30 calories per ounce which I'm sure is also helping with the weight gain. We are still waiting to hear back from his genetics testing but I guess no news is good news right?? Scott is due to see an allergist on April 21st. It sounds so far away but it is the soonest appointment we could get when I will be able to make it with my crazy work schedule. Brandon finally got a good full time job after being laid off four times so things around the house are getting a lot better too. Not quite as stressful although we are still trying to get caught up with a few things. Well I hope this weight gain keeps up as Scott seems to be doing so well right now. All we have to hope for is that his fine motor skills keep improving. He is doing better with the eating it is just the small things like the pincher grip and stuff like that that we have to work on. He still wants to grab everything with his fist instead of using his thumb and first finger. Well hope everyone has a good week and I will try to update you all sooner!! God Bless
