Cameron's Thoughts

Yesterday we took Brett in to get his latest shots since he is now four months old. When we were there, it was brought up that the back of his head was flat. We were kind of afraid that maybe he had been laying down too much, but since he has a pretty big head (his head size in the top 90 percentile), he didn't like to sit up, because it was hard to hold his head up. He is doing a real good job holding it up now, but that has just been in the last couple of weeks. Dr. Randall, his doctor, didn't seemed too concerned about it, but said we could have him see a neurologist to have him look over the situation as he might need a corrective helment to make his head grow properly.
Amazingly, they were able to get us in the next day, so today we seen the neurologist. He thinks there could another issue. He said that it's possible that the bones in his head aren't fusing together properly and weren't growing the way they should be. He said that a flat spot can sometimes be caused by lying down in one spot, but what normally happens is that the ears won't be even on each side as one side will grow differently. So, he wants Brett to have some tests done as he won't be certain without those.
I know Nickcole is really nervous about this, but even I am a little bit. He wants Brett to have a CAT scan done on his brain to make sure it's growing properly and to make sure things are connected. I don't remember the exact wording he used. Then, he also wants a 3D CAT scan done on his skull. This is going to be something that will start around noon, the first test will be at 1:30, and the second test will be at 3:30. The whole time they will have to put Brett under anesthesia since he can't move. I've never gone under full anesthesia in my entire life, and he is only four months old.
But, hopefully, if there is some problem, we can catch it soon and get it fixed. Otherwise, at least we will know that he is fine.

Finally got around to updating Hailey and Brett's pics on their websites. It's been a long time coming, since before Christmas. But, now, all the latest pics are up ready to view.

Just an update on what's going on. Basicly, not much. Haven't really had anything to post about since everything has just the same 'ol stuff happening. Hailey's getting big, finally is saying mama now. She can say just about everyones name, but would never say mama. She actually has a pretty big vocabulary now and is putting together a number of sentences. She's been saying "thank you" for a while, but now she is starting to say "please" too. Brett's getting big, over 15 pounds now. He is starting to roll over by himself.
But, that's about it, work has been busy, there will be some big changes happening in the near future that will make my job ten times better than it currently is. I just hope I don't lose it cause that is also a good possibilty.

I setup a page that lists all the sites I read. I read these through Bloglines. Lot's of good sites, mainly tech related. If you want to import these through your newsreader, you can download my OPML file that is always up to date.

Not anyone that I know, but I sent off this person a GMail invite and got a very personal thanks in return. Was very nice.

If anyone somehow still doesn't have a GMail account, and would like one, just feel free to leave a comment on this post or use my contact form to get ahold of me and I'll send one your way. Just make sure to give me a real email address. Google just gave most users 50 invites today, so, I have more than enough.
