He was my very first patient I took care of as a doctor. He is 2 weeks younger than Alexis. He has a complicated congenital heart defect with the main defect of Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome, meaning his left side is too small to function. He has had the first two stages of his repair and his third surgery will be around 2-3 years of age. Not only does he have the heart issue but he also only has one full size lung because his heart is on the wrong side. Plus his intestines were rotated and he had a g-tube placed. Needless to say he's been through a lot, a total of 9 months in and out of the hospital. He was in the hospital from May-July this admission for respiratory distress and he received a trach while in the hospital. He has now been home for over a week and doing great. <div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Ff4uj6cU5pw/UfRclm0uASI/AAAAAAAABqQ/KgYTc5tOydM/s640/blogger-image--1478423700.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Ff4uj6cU5pw/UfRclm0uASI/AAAAAAAABqQ/KgYTc5tOydM/s640/blogger-image--1478423700.jpg"></a></div>(Don't worry his mom gave me permission to post this.)</div><div><br></div><div>This little boy really touched me. It might be because he was my first official patient, maybe because he's so close in age to Alexis, but I think it was because God allowed our paths to cross. He makes anyone smile. My first few days taking care of him, he didn't care for me. He had to warm up to me. Then by the time he was discharged, he would smile when I came to his bed. He would also wave bye to me and we could communicate back and forth with tongue "clucking." Its such a joy knowing I took care of this kid. I feel so blessed that God has chosen me to care for sick children and help them feel better. I love that not only do I get to help the kids, but I enjoy getting to provide comfort and peace for the families. He is surrounded by such an amazing family. I can't imagine what his parents have experienced, but they never left his bedside. There was never a moment while I cared for him that he was left alone. What's even more amazing was to see the love his parents had for him. To see that special nurturing bond between a son and mother and then the playful bond between father and son. </div><div><br></div><div><br>
I share this information with you and ask for your help. I will be walking in the Congenital heart Walk on Team Ayden next month. This is a huge fundraiser for congenital heart defects. I am trying to raise $150. If you can donate in honor of Ayden, that would be great. Even if its only a dollar or two. I really believe God made our paths cross. </div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-family: '.HelveticaNeueUI'; font-size: 15px; line-height: 19px; white-space: nowrap; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); ">http://congenitalheartwalk.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=1057623&lis=0&kntae1057623=995308CF45E54F92B7869F04A97E150D&supId=387995441&team=0&nmv=true</span></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br>

Alexis took her first steps May 26th, the weekend we moved into our new house. What a great way to start new memories in a new home. This video was taken a few days after her first steps. She is now all over the place. She walks more than she crawls now.</div>

<b>Eating:</b> We are eating anything and everything. This has been our routine. Nurse in the morning around 6:45 and then oatmeal with 1-2oz fruit at 7:15. Then a bottle of expressed breast milk at 10:30, 3oz solids and 1/2 banana at 11:30 for lunch. Then a bottle at 3:00. Nurse at 5:30. Dinner of about 5oz solids at 7:00. Usually she will also eat whatever we are having for dinner. She loves eating broccoli, carrots, pancakes, cinnamon apples. She will eat chicken, ground turkey, anything and everything. She still isn't too found of fruits. I can get her to eat strawberries, bananas, and apples. We tried kiwi this week and she actually liked it. I've really enjoyed making her baby food. It's been fun! The last 2 weeks though she has been having a middle of the night feed around 2:00am. I have no idea where this came from as she hasn't had a middle of the night feed since December.

<b>Bedtime:</b> So we are still in limbo with this evening nap ordeal. We tried getting rid of it to see if that would help sleep through the night. eh not so much. We are back to taking an evening nap with bed time around 8:30. We usually do baby massages, pjs, brush our teeth and then story time. If it's bath night, we do bath first then the rest of the routine.</div>

<b>Favorites:</b> This past weekend she started standing on her own. She will let go and stand. She has made it for about 1 minute now. Once she realizes she's standing she usually plops back down. If we keep her distracted with a toy in her hands, she can stand longer. We are also starting to wave bye-bye. It's so cute. She has her hand facing her, so she's really waving bye to herself. She just watches her hand when she does it and then gets so excited. We are cruising across the couch. She can walk holding onto our fingers. She pulls up on everything. We are having so much fun watching her explore everything around her.</div>

I am trying to get back out to the park 3-4 times a week. Some friends of ours were sweet enough to give me her old jogging stroller. I haven't used it yet since it has been chilly out. Eric and I have just been alternating. He's home with Alexis and does weights while I run during her nap or vice versa. Today would have been a great day to take her out in the jogging stroller but unfortunately, she is sick. She has a fever and has been fussy. :/ Poor thing!<br />
<br />
I ran 3 miles today in 31 minutes. WOOHOO!!! I would love to do a 1/2 before residency starts.

Oh my I can't believe our baby girl is already 8 months. She is so close to a year. Sad :(<br />

<b>Eating:</b> We are now doing solids 3x a day, so I really think this has helped her gain some weight. She nurses in the morning not long after we get up, then she gets 1/4cup of oatmeal with 1.5oz of breast milk and 1oz fruit, then 5oz bottle at 10:30, then at 11:30 2oz fruit & 2oz vegetable for lunch, 5oz bottle at 2:30, nurses at 5:30, followed by solids including 1-2oz meat and then 2-3oz vegetables, nurse right before bed. This month we have really started feeding her some food off our plate. It's so fun to watch her enjoy new foods (broccoli, strawberries, pancakes, bread, pasta, meatloaf).</div>

<b>Bedtime:</b> Sometimes she skips her early evening nap, so if she does then bed time is between 8-8:30. Early this month she kept waking up at 2:30 wide awake jabbering away. We adjusted some of our feedings to help out with this. We realized if we do her solids early in the evening for some reason she sleeps better than if we do the solids around 7 after that evening nap.</div>

<b>Favorites:</b> So just 2 weeks ago she figured out how to pull up to standing. It's crazy!!! She figured it out and then the next day she pulls up on EVERYTHING! It's so cute but this stage comes with lots of falls and tears. She has had a bruise on her forehead :( Just last week she took a few steps behind her toy. (I have a video I will try to upload).<br />

<br />
Wow so these past few months have been crazy and full of lots of emotions. I submitted my rank list February 20th, found out I matched on March 11th, and found out where on March 15th. Talk about anxiety!<br />
<br />
Eric, Alexis and myself will be making the move to St. Louis sometime in May. I matched at Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital. I couldn't be happier. Eric and I are very excited. We aren't sure if St. Louis will become our forever home or not, but we are excited to spend the next 3 years there. We are so excited to finally have a good baseball team to go watch. Of course I looked up the Ranger's schedule and they will be in St. Louis at the end of June for a 3 game series. Of course we will be going and sporting our Rangers gear. (we will all need to get new shirts but that's another story)<br />
<br />
We are starting the relocation process including looking for places to live and job hunting for Eric. I will keep yall posted on our new adventure.The Adcock Homehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14849491108852146913noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3530700087641247543.post-13899391085134951932013-02-28T21:19:00.000-06:002013-03-30T21:39:55.178-05:007 Months<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

<b>Eating:</b> She is finally back to eating a good amount with bottles and she does solids twice a day now. She nurses in the morning, 3oz of solids around 10:30, 5oz bottle at 11:30, 5oz bottle at 3:00, nurse around 5:30 when we get home, 3-4oz of solids around 7 and then nurse again right before bed. She definitely loves her solids. We have tried so many foods and she really eats pretty well, but she is not too interested in fruits. She loves carrots, avocados, and peas. we have also done butternut squash which she likes. As far as fruits we started with peaches (did not like), pears (eh?), apples (not so much) and bananas. She liked the bananas the most but we definitely have to mix the vegetables in to get her to eat fruits.</div>

<b>Favorites:</b> She sure has figured out this army crawl thing. She just goes so fast now. The minute you put her on the floor she is gone. She hasn't figured out the real crawling on the hands and knees but why does she need to if she can army crawl? She will get up on her hands and knees and rock but that's about it. Every now and then she will pull one knee up one scoot but then drops to her belly.</div>

These past few months have been really crazy over here for us. I had lots of traveling for residency interviews. Those are all done thank goodness. Then I went back for what's called a second look. I got to spend the morning with the residents to see how things run on the floor. A great way to really get a good look at how the program runs. <br />
<br />
This month's schedule has been crazy as well. I've been working until either 8pm or 10pm depending on which shift I'm on. It's been a great month other than getting home so late. I either get home just in time to put Alexis to bed or she is already asleep. I just have 4 more shifts to work, then it's off to the next rotation.<br />
<br />
At the beginning of February Alexis had her first cold. She had a fever for four days, coughing, snot etc. It was so pitiful. Then she was better for about a week and then new fever of 102.8 and nice ol' ear infection. She is now finishing up some antibiotics for the ear infection. Her routine is still thrown off from being sick.<br />
<br />
I submitted my residency rank list this week. I will find out in 3 weeks where I'm off to for residency. I'm just glad it is out of my control. :)<br />
<br />
I'm hoping to get back into the swing of blogging again.

<b>Eating:</b> This past month we introduced some solids. It really was a lot of fun. We started off with oatmeal. We would just do about 2 tsp of oatmeal mixed with 1oz of breast milk just to get her use to the spoon. It was pretty soupy. We did this for about a solid week. I think I was in denial that she was ready for solids because it took me awhile before I started introducing anything else. We introduced carrots first and she loved them! Then we tried some green beans. She wasn't too excited about them. This has been her eating routine: nurse in the morning, 3 bottles at daycare, nurse in the evening followed by solids and then again once before bed. When we introduced oatmeal her bottles went way down at daycare. She was only eating 5-6oz during the entire day at the daycare and then she eventually just dropped one bottle right at the end of the month, so she is only taking 2 bottles during the day.</div>

She gets excited when it's time to sit in the high chair as she knows what's coming next. So far we have done oatmeal cereal, carrots, greenbeans, and avocado. She's still unsure about the greenbeans. We love the avocado!<br />

We tried green beans this last week and Alexis wasn't too impressed.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
We have tried them again and she is starting to like them. Not as much as the carrots, but I can get her to eat them.</div>

Alexis LOVED it. She was leaning in to get the spoon and even reached for the spoon. She did quite well and ate more than what got on her. She did cry at one point when I was going too slow. It was so fun!!! I can't wait to start baby food with her. :)<br />

<b>Eating:</b> She is still breast feeding 3 times a day and taking 3 5-6oz bottles of breast milk a day. She typically breast feeds around 6:45am, bottles at 9:30, 12:30, and 3:30, breast feeds around 6:00, and 8:45pm. Those are all rough estimates. While I was in Chicago for one of my interview trips, she stopped the middle of the night feed. She woke up in the middle of the night. Eric gave her her pacifier to calm her down while he was warming up the bottle. When he went back to get her she was asleep. She has been without a middle of the night feed for almost an entire month.</div>

<b>Favorites:</b> She sure loves morning time. Once she wakes up she is all smiles and just "talks". She really is a happy baby always smiling. She loves to talk and we have heard a few ba-, ga, and even ma- out of her when she jabbers away. She loves to stand. If we are out to dinner, we just get her out of the car seat and she just loves standing to look around. She also has figured out that she can "move." She scoots around by pushing backwards and rolls around. Long gone are the days that I put her down and she stays in one spot. She can sit by herself in the "tri-pod" position. She can sometimes sit normal for a few seconds. She is starting to pull her knees up under herself while on her tummy too. It's too cute.</div>

She was sitting on his lap playing with a toy in one hand and grabbed the rim of his coffee cup with the other. (We are in trouble now that she is reaching for things). We were the only ones in the area and there were high chairs near by. I thought lets try out a high chair since she does so well sitting up.<br />
<br />
Well she is a little peanut. She didn't have a problem sitting up but there was so much room behind her in the chair. I decided to set the diaper bag behind her to take up some of the space. I guess I need to get one of those high chair covers now that she is a big girl and can sit in a high chair at restaurants. :) <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-tcoUJ4O_nwU/UNYBFRJ6xMI/AAAAAAAABbQ/K0gs9P3u20Q/s640/blogger-image--1610532095.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-tcoUJ4O_nwU/UNYBFRJ6xMI/AAAAAAAABbQ/K0gs9P3u20Q/s640/blogger-image--1610532095.jpg" /></a></div>The Adcock Homehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14849491108852146913noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3530700087641247543.post-1120707194870619852012-12-11T10:15:00.001-06:002012-12-11T10:15:09.201-06:00Happy ThanksgivingThis is a little late...sorry it never got posted and sat as a draft. <br />
<br />
We stayed up in Kansas City since I had to work Friday and Saturday. We decided to start our own tradition. Neither Eric nor I are crazy about turkey, so why go through the trouble for just the two of us. We decided to grill steaks and have stuffed peppers, salad, and baked potatoes. Then I saw I had fresh green beans so I was going to cook those. Eric asked if I had stuff for green bean casserole which I did minus the fried onions (he said just use crackers). Then he mentioned something about dressing. I had a box of stuffing mix. I knew it wouldn't be as good as the real stuff but it would work. We ended up having way too much food just like a real thanksgiving dinner. Haha<br />
