Update

Well, it is time for an update! Caitlyn is loving preschool! She did great the first week. The second week started out strong, but Caitlyn ended up home because of a fever and some vomitting that we weren't sure what was causing it! (I'll get to that.) During the second week, Caitlyn really seemed distraut that all of the school buses were leaving without her! So we talked with her wonderful teacher and the para ed. ladies. They agreed that they would write a little note in a notebook so we could know how her day went. Caitlyn's third week started the beginning of her riding the bus to and from school! We have been very pleased with this arrangment so far! The teachers are really good about writing us notes, and it gives mommy some uninterrupted time for homework in the mornings! (Or going back to bed depending on how the morning went.) Caitlyn loves the bus! She gets off at home, and would rather run around outside then go inside for lunch. So we spend a little while playing outside before we make it inside! She is such a happy girl! She has done a great job of battling her first cold too! (well, the first one of the year)

Ok, back to Caitlyn's fever and vomitting. The fever came on and left two days later. We never really figured out what caused it. The vomitting however was occuring almost every evening at dinner time. Friday night when she threw up what she'd had for lunch, we decided it was time for a visit to the trusted doctors at the Children's Hospital ER. They did an x-ray, and we finally had our answers! It turned out Caitlyn had a stool back up! So we went home with a script for Miralax, and some relief for our little girl!!!!

Well, that's about it for our update. Tomorrow Caitlyn has her very first dentist appointment then on Tuesday we go back to the Neurologist. We will update everyone later on in the week. Thanks for following our journey!!
