We had another appointment with the specialist today. There hasn't been a significant change in the size of the cysts on little Derrick's Kidney, and the amniotic fluid is normal also, which means both kidneys are working. At least one and a half. So.....it's good news :) He is still a big boy, but instead of being in the 94th percentile he is now in the 88th. We are thinking, and hoping that he will average out towards the end of the pregnancy. Right now he weighs about 3lbs and 14 oz.

Merry Christmas!!

Christmas this year was busy with lots of family, and loads of fun! Brent really likes to play with the vacuum so we thought it would be a good idea to buy him a toy one for Christmas. Our idea was a success!! he loves it and pushes it around everywhere! He even vacuums when we do :)


We just couldn't wait for Christmas so we ended up waking him :) He was a tad sleepy.

We had our second appt. with the specialist yesterday. They did another ultrasound and it looks like nothing has really changed. Which is good. That is what we were hoping for. The three cysts are still there, but now they can tell that they are on his kidney and not on his adrenal gland. They haven't grown and there aren't anymore so we are happy :) We are supposed to go and meet with the urologist sometime this month to get a few more questions answered and find out exactly what happens after the baby is born. He is a big baby though and is measuring 2 weeks bigger. He is in the 94th percentile. The doctor did say that things could average out towards the end of the pregnancy though.

Turkey Day!

Thanksgiving was busy, but a lot of fun! We went to the Turley's and ate our hearts out and then we went to visit the Crockett's, where Brent had fun playing in the back yard.

Brent had fun on aunt Linda's trampoline jumping with daddy!

His face got a little dirty:) and he ended up looking like a cute little chimney sweep!

He really loved the slide!
And bouncing with grandma Crockett on the ducky!
