April 9, 2008


Time is flying way too fast. I can’t believe the last post was over 2 months ago. It seems like yesterday.

Well, for those of you who don’t know, we had Kaden Fadi "G" on 2/13/08 at 4:31am and he weighed 7 lbs. 4 oz. We were scheduled to be induced on 2/12/08 and we went into the hospital and they said “nope you don’t need to be induced you are in labor”. Then, by 1:00am, it felt like I was in labor and by 3:00am, I asked when my Dr. was getting there. The nurse said she would check how far along I was and let my Dr. know where I was at. Well, at 3:55am she checked and I was 10cm dilated. Then, at 4:31am, Kaden was here and the Dr. wasn’t!!!! God had a plan to get us to the hospital in time and thank goodness because otherwise we aren’t sure we would have made it in time ourselves.

Kaden is in great health and had some tests done and everything is GREAT. We really could not have asked for a better delivery and wonderful news that Kaden is perfect; except for the fact he too looks like Fadi :) j/k. I guess I just don’t carry any dominant genes.

It is great to have two boys and Eli has been a great cuddler with Kaden. Eli has been doing pretty well these days. He has been having break through seizures for about 3 months now. After we got home with Kaden we started Eli on a new medicine, Keppra. However, it doesn’t seem to have worked so far. The Dr. is increasing the dosage and we will see where it goes from there.

We also went to the GI doctor and Eli looks good from their end. He is in the 50th percentile on weight and the 25th on height for typical children so his weight gain is doing well. Kaden was in the 50th for weight as well but only 5th in height. We have us some short boys! Don’t forget to check out the pictures below.
