Holiday Update

I didn't realise I hadn't updated the site in so long. We moved into our new home on December 9th and left for vacation in Georgia on Demceber 18th. We decided not to get the internet connected until we got back in Jan. I know, I know - excuses, excuses.

Anyway, we went to see the surgeon on December 5th (Eric's birthday) and everything is fine with Wyatt's palate. What we saw was where the tissue falls away after surgery - or something like that. In any case, his palate looked good and we were told to not let him have anything in his mouth (like feeding utensils) for another 3 weeks and then his palate would be completely healed and he could go back to his old habits.

Wyatt is eating all kinds of food and was choking quite a bit on his solids, but has gotten used to his palate. I think having the plate causes him to have more of a gag reflex now though - that's fine!

We're having a great time in Georgia. The weather is wonderful and warm. Wyatt is loving all of the attention and has settled in very well. Hope everyone is having a great Holiday Season.
