Wow, it was a long hard week. Just as I am getting rest and recovering from last week I am getting ready to start a new week that will be just as long and hard. Thank God we have off on Monday so I can get an extra nap in.
Let me catch you up on some great news. Friday we took Jackson in for his check up to see how much longer he will be needing to wear his helmet. He is growing so fast that it looks like he will only need it for 6 more weeks. If he was a first time patient, they wouldn't even recommend the helmet now because his numbers were so good! I could tell his head wasn't as flat as it was but it was GREAT to have the doctor confirm it. Now that will be a wonderful Christmas gift.
Yesterday my husband and I went to our first Lupus support group and it was a good experience. There were about 10 people and one other guy whose wife was diagnosed with SLE a month ago. I really enjoyed listening to the ladies share stories about there Lupus. Some things I haven't experienced yet (hopefully never will) but a lot of the ladies had very similar issues that I have. We will definitely keep attending.
And we made it to the zoo. Jackson was more interested in the kids running around than all the new animals. He enjoyed the flamingos and alligators. It was nice to be out walking around and getting fresh air. We learned that Jackson loves the baby food in the squishy bags. It is much easier to use those than to have to carry food and a spoon.
Today's Blessing: Having my Mom here for the weekend. It was really nice having her here to help with Jackson. Too bad she is leaving tomorrow.
