Kaelyn is starting to feel a little tired today. I think her hematocrit (red blood cell count) is getting low. Yesterday we went in for a check up with the doctor and her count was at 22.8 which they have been giving her a blood transfusion when she gets to 21. A normal count is above 35, so she is getting pretty low. She just gets really pale and really sleepy. So, I am going to go take her in tomorrow for a blood count check and we will see what they want to do. We do have some good news from her check up yesterday though, she has gained some weight!!! Yeah! She is now at 17 lbs 4 oz! Which is great. She bottomed out at 15 lbs about a month ago, so the tube feeding is well worth it.
Jacob is such a sweet heart! We are finding him a new preschool to go to in the fall. He is getting excited, but he did tell me that he is feeling a little shy about going to a new school. Knowing him though, he will waltz through the door on the first day and make a ton of new friends! He is such a friendly boy! He loves summer and is having fun playing at all the beaches and, of course, playing with his daddy's game boy...
By the way, we have sold our condo! Yeah! It closes on the 27th of July. It is such a relief to have that off of our minds.
Well, I will let you all know how it goes tomorrow at the doctor.
