Another Update

Sorry...I have no pictures to post :( I've really been feeling sad about not being able to put up all of our Easter pictures and others from the past weeks. We are working on getting our computer fixed, hopefully it won't be much longer. We've been busy with our normal stuff, plus all these doctor visits for AB. She is continuing to do well, eating normally and is starting to pull up and cruise furniture. We saw her pediatrician this week who is referring us to an allergist here in Columbus to explore a possible egg allergy, and to Egleston to try and get some answers to her weird array of symptoms. Her legs and arms are still intermittently turning blue and have terrible circulation (known as capillary refill time.) Normal is less than 2 or 3 seconds...hers is upwards of 10 seconds or more. At its worst, her lips and cheeks will turn blue as well. We know it is nothing serious or life-threatening, but it is still concerning to know something is going on but not know what. Will is keeping busy playing with Ellie outside, and going to school, and bossing Annely Blake around. He's talking up a storm and is fascinated with yard equipment, construction tools, and puzzles. We turned a corner around Christmas and feel like he's finally out of the terrible twos and is really a delightful and fairly easy child. (Much like he was as a baby....) Whew! That was one LOOOOONG year and a half of consistent discipline. Just in time for Annely Blake to start acting up. That girl has a temper like you wouldn't believe. She ought to be a lot of fun at 15 :) All right...enough from me.
