One Day at a Time

Well we returned from camp, tired, dirty and for most of us ready to do it again.  Aidan did really well staying at home without Mom and Dad for 10 days.  Grandma and Grandpa enjoyed our little boy, and I know he enjoyed them too.  He played with Chloe and Eliot a lot, went to the park, and to Indian Grinding Rock State Park.  He played in the little pool in the front yard, and watered and weeded with Grandma and Grandpa.  

Aidan had a Dr.'s appointment on Friday.  It was his 18 mos. check up.  They weighed and measured him.

Height:  2'11.25" (99%)

Weight:    23 lb 2.1 oz (14%)-  This was actually down at least a pound from his 12 mos check.

Head:  19.76" (96%)

We have been struggling with Aidan's eating habits.  It is hard as a mom to try and do the best you can, but for nothing to work.  We have friends in Oregon that faced this challenge more than anyone should when their little boy became severely epileptic.  I think of them and how God has proven himself to them over and over and especially now when it seems as their little one is healed.  Trevor and I will do what we can and leave it all in God's hands.  It's easier to write and say than to actually do.  Aidan spits food out, even his favorite things, when he just doesn't want to eat.  So we are supplementing his diet with PediaSure and keeping him to a strict no snacks, no juice, only 3 meals a day  diet.  We go back in a month to see if this is working.  My doctor said he is dealing with the same thing with his 2 year old.  I even saw his little boys chart and it looked just like Aidan's.

Aidan is a VERY sweet little boy.  He loves kisses and cuddles, and carries his teddy, bunny, and blanket around with him wherever he goes.  He laughs a lot, and still loves to dance.  At least once a day we turn the music on and dance for about 1/2 and hour.  He loves the silliness.  

Pray for us and his eating situation and also for these next couple of weeks.  Trevor is leaving on another 2 week trip with Camp High Places, and Aidan and I are flying down to be with Grandma and Grandpa.  

We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family, please keep us posted with what is going on with you.
