Guest guest Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 - Glad to know you are home safe. Did the doc mention though why he wanted to wait 6 months? Just curious. Oh and how exciting that she is rolling over! I love that stage. I have friends whose children would roll around the whole room to get where they were going!

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 H- It seems like they like to wait in 6 month incraments. The said they wouldn't consider the surgery while she was under 1 year.. and she will be 1 in about 6 months... so that's why I " m guessing they want to see us back in 6 months. We see the geneticist in May.... but hopefully we will get the results from todays blood work sooner than that. advocate22003 wrote: > - Glad to know you are home safe.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Hi. Sorry to hear the info about her foot and surgery but I am glad things went well overall. Are they planning on doing the surgery at 1 yr? It sounds like one tough, tiring day. Congrats on her rolling over! That is such great news! Summer just began to roll all around the living room for fun. She sometimes will still get stuck on her stomach and can't figure out how to move her arm, but besides that, she is enjoying her freedom. It's the same thing with the blankets here. I used to just set her on one with some overhead toys or a couple next to her so she could turn and see them, now she just starts to roll and roll and sometimes even ends up on top of her toys...my other kids are loving it. mom to Autumn RSS, Summer SGA possible RSS, OCean, Skye > > Greetings everyone... > > Today was consumed with the Shriners.
