Oh my goodness, he was a changed man. He was happy and smiling, he freaked a little bit when I washed the shampoo out, but no worse than Maddie does. It was great!
Things are going well. Gideon has an appointment with a GI specialist next Friday in Columbus. We are going to try and get to the bottom of his allergy issues. We are still pretty much keeping him away from diary, but I suspect we are not doing enough. He has only gained 2 oz in the last 2 months and that is very concerning to me. To compare, Annie has gained 6 lbs since she has been home for 6 months. It is very common for kiddos when they come home to really plump up. Gideon has not, although he looks pretty healthy.
Gideon is starting to hit his sisters with blocks and stuff. Of course he gets appropriately disciplined, but I find it kind of funny that he is finally asserting himself. His is just being ornry. He will just be sitting and playing nicely and then all of the sudden "whack." You should have seen the look on Madeline's face the first time he got her!
Annie is doing great also. She is very much "the streak" these days. Sometimes I feel like duct taping her clothes to her! She is stripped down to her diaper almost every morning. Annie has also become very loud, and her low voice carries. I am trying to teach her what speaking quietly means. In the mornings, Annie often gets up first and will just yell "mama, mamaaaa," let's just say she is like an alarm clock for the whole upstairs. Annie is still probably my most lovey kid right now. She would probably let you hold her all day if you could. She is my backpack buddy. When we go somewhere she is the one who goes in the backpack carrier. She loves it and does really well in it.
Well, until later....
