Rebekah is doing good.  She will be 9 months old on the 18th and is about 16 lbs.  She had an Echo cardiogram done a month ago and her Leaks are a little bit bigger but nothing to be concerned with at this time.  In fact, we get to wait until January for her next Cardiology appointment. YAY!!  She is still on her medicines-- Lasix and Captopril.  She doing great eating her baby food and still sleeping good at night. She is still my happy, smiley little Angel.

 We have noticed some speech delays, developmental delays and ADHD behaviors with Lucas  As a result,Lucas has started preschool with an Early Childhood program catered to his needs; Speech therapy, etc.   He goes 5 days a week and rides a school bus.  He really enjoys it.  And, is doing well in this new school setting.

We got a call from Amanda's teacher a month ago with some concerns.  Amanda was having some academic delays and  bad behaviors started showing up so we took her to the doctor and got her labs drawn for Di George and She tested Positive for Di George and we have her an appointment in January for a neurologist and psychiatrist. 

My Husband A.J. has his Surgery date set for November 12th, 2010.  We are hoping he will be back home by Thanksgiving but he will be out of work until 2011.  He has been having more symptoms associated with Tetralogy of Fallot but hopefully he will feel much better in a few weeks after surgery.
