December

Liam has been doing such a great job with his head control recently.
We finally adjusted his high chair to sit him up a little more.
He scares me at times but he does a great job sitting there.

He is able to control his head much better and for longer periods of time.
Two weeks ago he could only sit for less than a minute before he was tired.
Today he can last for several minutes and we don't really have to support his upper back.
He can also last longer sitting against us.
In fact, today at church he sat against our chests for half of the hours.

 

On December 18 Liam had an appointment with Urology.

When he had his MRI they spotted Liam had both Kidney's inflamed.

They wanted to keep an eye on it so he had a second ultrasound since then.

One of his kidney's is still inflamed but the other one seems normal now.

Dr. wanted to make one last ultrasound in a year just to make sure.

He would rather be safe than sorry.

As you can see he did not enjoy it but we are glad he is doing great in every way.

 

I also finally decided that Liam needed a haircut.

His first haircut was back in March.

I haven't cut it since then.

His first cut I buzzed him because it was after his first surgeries.

I should have cut it once again in July after his surgery in June but it was a small they buzzed that I didn't bother.

But since he has become better with sitting I decided to take advantage.

I have cut hair for over 7 years and worked at a kid's salon for 3 years.

There I learned so much including cutting a crying child's hair within 10 minutes.

So it wasn't too bad cutting his hair.

He looks like such a big boy now.
