Well Landon is doing great. He went to the doctor last week and weighed in at 14lbs 5oz and is 25 and 1/4 inches long. He’s had to have his blood drawn (which was terrible cause they missed the vein on the first try), but the good news is his iron is perfect. Yay no more iron supplements!!!

Landon has finally learned to roll over from his back to his front. He took his time with this, but now he seems to love being on his stomach. It won’t be long before he’s crawling. He is also almost able to stand when holding on to something. Considering, he can’t fully sit on his own, that’s pretty darn good.  

We’re getting ready to hunker down for RSV season. RSV is a very serious virus for preemies. To an adult or healthy infant, RSV is like a bad cold/flu. For a preemie, or former preemie who’s under the age of 2, it can mean another long stay in the hospital. Preemies lungs can take a couple years (or longer) to get to full strength after they’ve been on breathing support in the NICU. Landon will get RSV shots once a month which will help him should he get RSV. But the best thing we can do is keep him from getting it. So, we’re buying some more stock in Purell and yes we’ll be spraying everyone down who comes within a 20 foot radius of L-dizzle!!!!

OK enough chit-chat here’s the pics:
