Howdy!

It was a hot one in Texas last week!  Luckily on Sunday it rained and it has cooled down a bit.  Ok, well, I guess cooling down from over 100 to around 90 may not seem like much, but we can sure feel it!  We normally go swimming in the mornings and it is already in the 90s,  Today it was only in the 80s when we went swimming, so Seth didn't last too long.  He was blue pretty quick and wanted to get out and dry off.  Poor guy.  Even though he is quick to turn blue, his oxygen saturations have always been good.  I don't think I have ever seen him go below 93. He never sats at 99, but anything above 90 is considered normal, although higher 90s is preferred.  Seth has a great appetite right now and the first thing he always asks for when he wakes up is breakfast!  And he usually has a bowl of cereal before bed, but darn it, we can't get him to hit the 30 lb. mark!  He made it to 30 pounds right before we left Maryland, but due to an episode of being sick on our trip to Utah, he dropped a couple of pounds!  So, I guess we have been trying to make that up and get him to gain weight.  I have one child who needs to lose weight and one who needs to gain!  I wish we could get some kind of compromise going between these two kiddos!  

I am slowly getting the house unpacked.  Most everything is unpacked, but there is a box here and there that needs to be sorted through and put away.  By the time I am done, we'll be packing up again!  Although I am thinking we will let the movers do it this next time.  One year is not enough time to recooperate from this past move.  We are thinking we will go to Washington state.  We would be around an hours drive from a hospital with a Pulmonary Hypertension clinic, instead of three hours like we are here.  We shall see. Otherwise I have been staying up way too late and need to try to get to bed earlier!  I am a night owl and Todd is an early bird!
