Doctor Appointments

Well I took tuesday off of work to take Alexander to a couple of his regular yearly check-ups. We first had to go to the genetics doctor - Dr. Grange. She had us get some blood drawn and we will know those results in a few weeks. I am anxious because I have never know what kind of Down Syndrome my little guy has.

We then went to the eye doctor - Dr. Rallo and Alexander got his eyes dialated. He still has a stigmatism (same as last year) but he also has watery tear ducts. They are only partially obstructed so no surgery at this time. But if he went in for another small surgery we would get that fixed too. Also his stigmatism isn't bad enough for glasses which is a plus. He wouldn't keep them on anyway.

We also took Emma to the doctor for her follow from her ear infection and it has gone away. She is cutting a tooth though. My baby is only 3 months and already getting her first tooth.

Today we all woke up with a cold though. Thanks to Alexander, but i think he got it worse. His eyes were matted shut today! This is part of the his eyes watering. It is only bad when he is sick or from the cold weather. Fingers crossed this cold doesn't last forever and that baby Emma doesn't get it!
