Another week

A week has passed by so I thought I would fill you in. We went to visit our paediatrician ( who is wonderful). Frustratingly, Joel only put on 3 oz in 9 days and is not thriving enough, so this week coming we are off to see the dietitian and for weekly weigh-ins again. Joel will also be starting a monthly cycle of injections that should protect him from catching RSV or respiratory illnesses like broncilitis. He will get jabbed every 28 days until April. Tomorrow he is also getting blood tests taken to check that the medicines he is currently on are not causing any problems and then on Thursday we have normal 8 week jabs at the health centre and weighing and dietitian at the hospital.

This weekend we went to see the deer and kick leaves at Dunham Massey; the leaves are falling and turning colour. I love when they are dry and crispy. It was 'the big draw' so Emily had lots of fun drawing on the paths with chalk. (J had fun too!)

No pumpkins, leaves or trees in our Autumn pictures but, we are all in it!

On Friday we went to Blackpool to show Emily the lights. We had fun, it was a shame we couldn't make it on to the sand, the builders were redoing the flood defences. It rained quite heavily so we ended up in the tower at soft play. (again, J had fun!)

Who had MORE fun, J or E? My vote goes for J! We are praying hard for Joel and are glad to see you are having good family fun together these last couple of weeks!
