I am writing today to let everyone know that we did get Carter started on genatropin, a growth hormone medicine. He began this last monday, the 6th of Decemeber and it has gone very well. He hasnt cried or anything, and sometimes even watches at what we are doing. I am so proud of Carter. What a brave boy.
The last couple of days I have noticed that Carter is much more thirsty than normal...he wants to drink and drink water. Cody and I wonder if this is a sign that the medicine is working? We are optimistic it is.
Preschool has been also going great for Carter...His time has increased to 10 1/2 hours a week, where as before it was 4 hours. He is indeed tired when it is time to pick him up at 12:30 and is normally napping for me by 1 pm! On a good day, Camden naps at the same time! ;) This past week he has been coming home singing Christmas songs, "Jingle Bells", to be precise. Its so fun to listen to him sing and clap! He has also been saying 'up, down' while putting his arms up and down..There are so many other little things I cant even think of right now that are new, and i know he must have learned it at preschool. His aide, Carol, is just wonderful too..She is so great with Carter Dale.
Thats about all for now! God Bless and Merry Christmas!!
