Heart-Healthy!

Archie saw his Cardiologist yesterday, she did another echo on him, while he watched Baby Einstein-its the only thing that stops him from squirming while on the table! She said his heart still looks the same and she does not see any open-heart surgery for him in the immediate future. As long as he stays healthy and infection-free his homograft should continue to function well! She also took him off another diuretic so we are down to three meds a day-YAY! Enalapril(diuretic) Lasix (diuretic) and Viagara (for pulmonary hypertension). He used to get 9 meds a day so this is a VAST improvement! Archie also saw his gastro-enterologist yesterday and he is happy with Archie's weight and growth pattern. We are STILL waiting to get into the Feeding Clinic, due to therapist scheduling problems and our insurance company change-over it has been delayed...

Archie is still crawling and he can pop right up into a sitting position easy as pie - makes for difficult diaper-changes though! He says Da-Da ALL the time and some other garbled stuff but mostly Da-Da (he reaches for Daddy when he gets home). He gets fake-angry sometimes and we call it doing "The Hulk" because he clenches his fists, grits his teeth, kicks out his feet and grunts loudly! he doesn't turn green though - yet

Josie is still going to pre-school and we visited the Albuquerque Aquarium/Botanical Gardens with her class yesterday. Check the photo album for new pics...

Chris and I are both on MySpace now - if anyone else has a Myspace just let us know so we can add you to our friends. MySpace is crazy-addicting but fun, we have been able to find a lot of old friends from highschool, college and Disney!

Hope everyone is having a cool summer!
