beautiful poop (haha)

Bryn's had enough of the Dr's. Well, for about a month anyway until she has to go see her regular pediatrician for her 3 yr. check up. Then a few weeks after that it will be time for her 6 month cardiologist follow up again. It just never ends for her. Today we had an appt. with her G.I. specialist, the one that performed her endoscopy procedure. Good news is, her biopsies came back looking good, no signs of Celiac Disease at this time. Which is obviously great, however her Dr.'s exact words were "We can not rule it out completely down the road, her blood tests pointed us here, and you never know if and when it could start to show up."
More good news however, she has (in the past week and a half) had some good normal solid poops! **applause please!** and the best part is, she has been doing more and more of them on the potty!! You know your over excited about poop when your almost 3 year old holds up her hand and says "STOP looking at my poopies Mommy!" haha :) I can't help it.... after 9 months of diarrhea, it is a beautiful site!
So the plan now.... well, we aren't supposed to go changing her diet. We did discuss possible slight Gluten intolerance... maybe? Her Dr. wants to wait and see if she is really turning over a new leaf, or if these "beautiful poops" are just a fluke. Either way.... we will be re-doing blood work in about 8 months to see if the levels have gone back to normal or not, and of course see where we are at in the poop dept. (let's hope it will be back on track!) In the mean time we will not torture her with anything else unless absolutely necessary!
She also had her follow up eye appt. with her eye specialist, this past Monday. Good news on her astigmatism.... it has gotten slightly better! YEA!! We like good news. We pray that in another 6 months, at her next follow up, it is still going in the right direction. We do not want any lazy eyes with bad vision.

Other wise, Bryn's still Bryn... spunky, crazy Bryn. Climbing up the exam table in the office today and trying to take flying leaps off of it, while grabbing tweety bird who was hanging from the ceiling. Of course doing all of this in the sweetest little cupcake dress, trying to keep everyone believing she is shy and Innocent. That's our baby girl! :)
