To our fellow blog followers we apologize for being so behind. January and February flew right past us. Unfortunately for most of those two months Max was fighting a terrible cold which turned into pneumonia and then into RSV (respiratory virus). Despite being sick he was a pretty good sport and managed most days to put a smile on his cute little face. He is one tough little cookie!!
Kelly managed to sneak in a session in early February for Max's 6 month session, even though technically he was 7 months. We wanted to share some images from the session. Much to our surprise there were a lot more images of Max smiling...lets just say he was not a happy camper having his pictures taken!
An update on Max, at his 6 month check-up he was weighing a little over 17 pounds and was 26.25 inches long. Still a little peanut when it comes to his percentiles but his pediatrician reassures us that he is happy with his progress. We made a trip down to Milwaukee in the middle of February to visit his doctors at Children's Hospital. Ultra sounds are showing that Max's kidneys are still under sized and that the right kidney is still abnormal. His kidney function is still 50%, which has not changed from our last visit. On a better note his bladder looks good in comparision to our previous visit and the urologist is hopeful that no further operations will need to be performed to the bladder or valves. We will continue with monthly blood work for his kidneys and head back to visit his kidney team in April.
