Sam had another cardiologist visit yesterday. She said he was enormous. Well, she didn't say that exactly. He enters the ring at 13 pounds, 5 ounces. Apparently he is in the 75th percentile for weight.
He can walk. That's not true either. He can squirm though.
The medicine Sam is on appears to be working well. Every time he is weighed the dose is raised to keep up with his growth. Last week the pediatrician weighed him at 12 pounds, 14 ounces and they bumped his dose up 1 mL. This week the cardiologist weighed him and bumped it up another 1 mL. At this rate he will drink this beta blocker stuff out of leftover 2 liter 7Up bottles by the time he can speak.
Thank you for the prayers. Here are a few new pictures:
