Happy Easter Everyone!

Max is 11 months old today! I still can't believe that he will be a year old in one month. CRAZY! We can't believe how fast it has gone.

Max got his first haircut on Thursday. He looks so grown up, even though you can't really tell a big difference. Just a little off the sides, neck and top. He was getting a little straggly. I'll post pictures as soon as I find the cord that attaches my camera to the computer :o(

As you can see from Max's updated stats on the right hand side, he didn't grow in March. We are blaming it on the rough month that he had with being admitted for a PD trial, surgery and his feeds being held. There were also a lot of missed growth hormone doses due to my error in reordering it from the mail order pharmacy and him being in the hospital. Dr. Ben is a little concerned, but not to the point of jumping to anything drastic.....yet. If you remember from a post awhile back, if Max stops growing we will have to move forward with the transplant sooner than wanted. So, PLEASE pray that we have a BIG growth spurt in April so that we don't have to go down the not-so-friendly route.

Also, we need another minor pray that we have good weather for Max's birthday party. The guest list is already at 130 people and slowly creeping up even more. I know, I know.... it's just a birthday party! We may be going just a little (or a lot) overboard with this one :o) He deserves it.

Alright, so have a very Happy Easter and please say a prayer for the two requests above.

Oh wait... one more thing.... CONGRATULATIONS to Brett and Monica on their beautiful new addition, Jillian Rose. She surprised them by coming a couple of weeks early this past Thursday night. We all hope you feel better Monica. We're all praying for your new family of 5.
