Ander's hospital stay

Ander gave us quite a scare. He had two seizures. The hospital wrote off the first one because there were no symptoms that the doctors could see and because of Jared's family history of infant seizures. After the second they kept him (ended up being about a week) and did all kinds of tests on him (MRI, EEG, Spinal tap, ultrasounds, urine, etc.) It turns out he had a raging urinary tract infection. The ultrasound showed that both kidneys were infected due to reflux. He is still on antibiotics and will do a urine test once a month. We're hoping he grows out of this and doesn't have to have surgery.

Getting some love from papa.

Ander in his hospital bed. He is a kicker and kicked that IV out of his foot twice so they put one in his hand, then in the last few days said he's getting enough fluids from mom so we're not going to worry about it.

When we were returning to the hospital from J's graduation, the nurse was about to feed Ander a bottle and Soren asked if he could him. He's such a good big brother.

He had such a cheery disposition through the whole ordeal. You never would've known he was sick. Look at those rolls! A nutritionist came in and said, "Uh yeah...," and walked out : )
