We finally have an appointment up in Eugene at the Child Developmental and Rehabilitation Center for Hubercito to have a Barium feeding camera study Jan 6th. From what I understand from another mother whos child has had one done, the put a lil Barium (which is dye so you can see with an xray type machine) into some food or formula and watch as he eats. This way they can see how he swallows and make sure nothing goes into his lungs. I am so excited to have this done as we have been talking about it since he was 3 months old. We switched pediatritions about 4 months ago and our new one agreed right away that there was no point in waiting as his former pediatrition had said. Im trying not to get my hopes up too much though because throughout the day you can hear he has saliva in the back of his throat as if he isnt swallowing hard enough.
In other news I cannot believe that Christmas is next week! We had originally planned on going to spend it in Fresno with Hubers family but at the last minute because of the icy and snowy roads and just the stress of having to drive so far with Hubercito still crying a lot in his car seat we decided to try for that a lil later in this upcoming year. So we will be spending it here with some of the family. We had one good day of snow which was exciting to see. We set Hubercito in the bed so he could look out the window (one of his few favorite enjoyments) and see the snow falling. We got his all bundled up and went in search of snow later that day but by then most of his had melted so he didnt get his first chance to actually be out in it. Snowboarding in Mt Ashland soon though! Then he'll get his fill of the snow!
Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to everyone!
