Well we finally heard back from the doctor today in regard to Savannah's xrays. Unfortunately it was not good news. She definitely has scoliosis. She has a 17% curvature in her spine and to be classified as scoliosis they need a 10% curvature. This is what they would normally find in a 16 year old. We are scheduled to see the Orthopedic on Tuesday. As you can imagine there are many concerns with this new development, because the curvature could affect her breathing and many other things if not corrected.

We are taking CJ to the doctor tomorrow for his reflux. He has been absolutely miserable lately. If he is not sleeping he is screaming in pain, it is very difficult to see him in so much pain.

Today was a busy day with the babies. The Physical Therapist came this morning and noticed that Savannah side was not quite right it was bulging out on the side. She suggesting Chuck take her to see the doctor. Better be safe than sorry. Chuck took her advice and the doctor also thought it was kind of odd so then Chuck had to take them to the hospital so she could get x - rays of her spine. The doctor mentioned that it could be scoliosis, but it could also be nothing. We won't get back the results for a few days.

We also started CJ on Zantac tonight for his reflux. We are really hoping this will make him feel better because he has been very agitated lately.

On a good note, CJ rolled over a few times during Physical Therapy and is holding his head up very well. We are very proud of both of them and their progress to date.
The babies are doing very well. They both started eating vegetables yesterday. They will eat Sweet Potatoes for 5 days and we will then move onto Carrots and other orange/yellow vegetables. After that comes the green vegetables and then onto fruit. They really seemed to enjoy the Sweet Potatoes and took to them without any problems.

It appears that CJ definitely has reflux so we are hoping to putting him on Zantac to make him a little more comfortable.

Yesterday we fed both CJ and Savannah by spoon. We thought for sure it was going to be a total failure, but we were shocked when they both took to it immediately. CJ couldn't get the spoon in his mouth quick enough. Savannah also seemed to have no problems with it either.
