What's Up, Doc??

Last week, Avery had to get some testing done at MUSC here in Charleston. Nothing too concerning...just some follow-up testing on his bladder and kidneys. This included an entire day of tests and doctor appointments. Let me tell you, Avery is a frickin' CHAMP!!! He lasted all day without getting fussy. He took his catheter like a MAN (Daddy was crossing his legs and tearing up, though!). In addition, he said "who needs Lasix?? I can pee like a racehorse without it!!". The hardest part of the day was getting an IV, which took 3 tries and the help of a NICU nurse to finally succeed. Yeah, he didn't like that one too much....and I was bawling right along with him. I guess Mommy has a heart after all!

"Patient"-ly waiting in between appointments:

Baby's butts hanging out of hospital gowns are much cuter!!!

The doggies all have jewelry with their name on it...now I have a cool ankle bracelet with MY name on it too!!
