One of three trips to The Arch

I took Jackson to St. Louis Children's Hospital today for GI clinic. We had a productive appointment! Jack's formula is being switched. We're going to a formula that isn't broken down as much, hoping that the poopy problems will be resolved. Jackson also had labs drawn (which took 3 tries!-the first two veins were blown).  His labs are testing electrolytes, phosphates, vitamins K, D, and E, and he's also being tested for Celiac disease. The doctors want to rule that out.

Here's the wonderful news: Jackson was a pleasure during the appointment. He was smiling, playing, talking to the Dr., and he even let her (a new GI) hold him! And. . .he even rested his head on her shoulder.
What else. . .oh. . .I've got this new phone, the Droid X, and Jackson has been playing with the kid's applications! He has a lot of fun touching the screen and playing peek-a-boo. I've even put a new application that is a communication device. The program works with pictures. A picture of a ball is tapped, and then you hear, "I want to play with a ball."
So COOL!!!!!!!
