A Mac

I am proud to announce that we are expecting a boy!  For now on this blog I will refer to him as A Mac--the nickname that I have come up with and like alot; and for which the exact spelling of it is subject to change, but for those of you who know the name, you get the gist! 

His sisters and brother are excited as Scot and I are as well!  Coincidentally, I accessorized my outfit today with blue jewelry and after a long morning of me impatiently awaiting the news of our baby's gender, I found it cutely ironic that I was wearing blue when we learned that our son, A Mac, was on the way!  May be it was mother's intuition

We are truly blessed to have the best of both worlds and an equal spread of gender among our family.  Little Man get's a playmate!  Not that his sisters aren't great playmates but this little brother will be closer to his age and will probably play a few more things that boys are interested in!  Again, we thank God for this blessing as well as our other three blessings!

And as a side note:  I think that I may give all my kiddos nicknames on this blog. I haven't entirely decided.  But if I do, hopefully you will catch on to whom I am talking about when I am talking about each child and such!

Update On Little Man!

Little Man had another visit with his G.I. doctor yesterday.  The appointment went well and we were given the green light to start weening Little Man from Prevacid.  We have a specific way to do it, but we are excited to begin the process.  If all goes well during the weening process, the doctor said that they no longer need to see him!  Little Man has been doing well! 

During his examination, Ian didn't want much to do with the doctor even when the doc was trying to get Ian to give him some high-fives!  However, when the doctor said that he was good to go and doesn't need to be seen by them anymore, Ian was all about high-fiving the doctor!!!  We are blessed.  Ian no longer sees the speech pathologist and now we can knock the Gastro-Interologist off the list.

Next stop for Little Man is the urologist for his kidneys and urine reflux, but that won't be until September.  He will most likely have another renal scan and such performed; but at least we are down to one doctor now, which we see once a year now instead of every 3 months to every 6 months like he had been experiencing.  So again, God is good and we are blessed!
