Doctor, doctor

Just back from our third visit to the pediatrician in eight days.  Today's primary purpose was for Cayden's 4-month vaccinations but they also did a weight check.  Although he was up two ounces from Monday, Dr. Stanford wants to see him again in a week.  If he had gained more, we wouldn't have to go back for a month.  As of now, he weighs 7 lbs. 7 oz. and he seems to be eating well over the last few days, but he seems so uncomfortable and miserable after he eats.  Poor little guy.  Reflux sucks.

This afternoon, we're getting a visit from a home nurse.  I'm not exactly sure what all she's going to do, but I think the main purpose is to check in, assess how Cayden is doing, and decide if we qualify for more frequent visits.  I'm hoping maybe we'll get some consistent help, especially during times when Jason is gone.

Speaking of help, we've been blessed with meals from Colorado Community Church every other day for the past week.  My friend and co-worker, Rachel, signed us up for their Prepared Meals Ministry that she participates in.  Once again, I am overwhelmed at the kindness and generosity of people - total strangers in this case.  We are so thankful!
