Ronan is still at the children's hospital and no word yet as to whether he can escape yet. I think we may be a few days away from that but they could surprise me. I'm waiting for his Endocrinologist to make her appearance. I expected her yesterday but she did not come up to see him. I think she stayed away because he had a Esophageal dilation and PICC line placed yesterday. She has been giving orders over the phone but no one knows what the bigger picture is right now and won't know until the Endocrinologist gives everyone more information.
Overall he is doing well and sleeping away currently. We are getting his diet worked out and realize he can't have any milk now. We gave him about three ounces and his sugar dropped. He got to go to the play room today because I had to leave and he was sad. The nurse had a volunteer take him up to pass some time. I was told he had a lot of fun.
Sunday was Thanksgiving dinner at church. The kids were singing in Patch club and Landon had a solo. I left Ronan mid-morning so I could see the kids sing. I couldn't disappoint them plus I needed time with them. Landon was adorable singing his solo and the other kids did a good job as well.
We did the Thanksgiving apple thing my parents do every year with their church. Basically you tell what you're thankful for and you get an apple. Jadzia and Xander both said they were thankful for God and Landon said he was thankful for Jesus dying on the cross. Inara stole my Mom's apple. After church we went down to Thanksgiving dinner and I was glad to have at least one Thanksgiving dinner with my kids.
Yesterday the boys and Isaac went up to my in-laws and they will be there the rest of this week. The boys got new haircuts and my mother in-law took us out to a nice lunch before they all left.

Now here are the latest ultrasound pictures and everyone I've showed them to say "Oh it's a boy!" But I feel the need to clear something up. I was almost 13 weeks here and between 12 and 14 weeks all babies look like they are boys. There is something you can do with angle to tell but I did not have one of the poses you need. So in short there is no way to tell at this point boy or girl since all babies look like they are boys. We have decided this time we are not going to find out gender until birth. We think it will be fun to be surprised this time since we've never tried it before.
And to finish the blog post off here are some more random pictures.
Congratulations on number 6! We think that is a good number :) Hope Ronan isn't in there too much longer but atleast they are helping you figure it out so you aren't running back and forth to the hospital. Have a great Thanksgiving!
