It has been a long while.

Well, we survived Christmas. All three of them. I love the holidays. I love being with family, surrounded by good food, good company and good memories. I don't, however, enjoy all the chaotic mess that comes with it. But we survived. We were all spoiled. And we all had the best times.

Just a short update. I'm tired, I have a headache and Tink isn't helping matters at all by being her wonderful, charming loudasheckspazzingpants.

Dinky is now a giant 13lbs2oz! It's fantastic!! He's got the biggest cheeks on him!! His eye appointment went well, his eyes are good for now and another check in March.

However, he's having for lack of a better term, mini seizures. At first they started as just random twitching of his hands and legs. They would stop for a few days and then happen a few times again. And then the other night they happened a lot. I managed to get a video where he had his eyes rolling back. Next morning he was having a lot of these "tweaking" fits. So we took him to emerg.

The oncall doctor was able to get a hold of our pedi and explain the situation and what was happening. So we got a prescription. That doesn't come in liquid. Go figure. We were able to get a dose of the anti-seizure meds at the hospital, crushed up in some apple juice.

Dinky liked the juice!

And this morning he has only had 4 minor twitchings. Improvement I hope. So we meet with our pedi tomorrow for a check over and to see what's going on, if we can get and of our Children's stuff rushed now that there's been this new development. I might sound like a jerk, but I hope we are able to get in sooner rather then later.

It would be nice to know what's going on. And what we can do to help. This being in limbo really, really, really sucks ass and has a way of making a person feel extremely helpless. Not exactly the best feeling to have.

R2D2s birthday is in 10 days. His due date was for today but he made me wait another 10 days before he was forcefully evicted from his comfy womb. My little boy is turning into a wonderful young man.

And it sucks.

Why do children have to grow up so fast? What's the rush?
