Axel was recently switched from pediasure to Boost Kids Essentials. He's been on it about a month and what a difference those calories make. He might not be a butter ball but he sure has filled out to where one can notice it. Carrying him has become a switched from arm to arm or switch from parent to parent thing. He is getting heavier. One thing his is getting better at and i can say has mastered is pulling up. Anywhere and everywhere he is standing. He cruises along things nicely but to take a step with no one holding his hand he still doensn't want to. Who can blame him? He knows it would be total face plant. I'm glad he hasn't gotten there yet. He has had me on my toes a lot lately. Becoming a total boy. By that I mean he is rough and tough. Lunging at everything that is out of his reach, falling to the side hitting his head and getting right back up not even shedding a tear. This morning he totally surprised me by lunging at me while I was just waking up. Right in my face. I was so upset but so proud that he is getting so active. He scoots all around the house. Trying his best to keep up with his Big brother. Standing up everywhere grabbing anything on the edge of the kitchen table. I have found 2 remotes, a few cups and some toys in the toilet. ALL AXEL'S DOING. *BIG SIGH* To think a year ago he was in the NICU being prepped to have a gutbe placed. His 5th surgery. I tear up just thinking about it. My little miracle is growing up so fast. To all those just starting the CDH journey thinking it can never get better, it will and one day you'll be finding your favorite pairs of sunglasses in the toilet too. My prayers and (((hugs))) to all the Cherubs families.
