Three months post-surgery and almost 7 1/2 months old:
Where did the "Thirteen weeks later" blog entry go? Well, not that we're superstitious or anything, but why risk it? So we're a few days late in the "three months later" entry. Sam is able to stay sitting up fine most of the time although he does take some unusual slouch poses and needs to be helped back up. He's almost getting up on his knees, so crawling is just a few weeks away.

I went back and filled in blog entries for March-August that were missing since this web log was originally created starting on August 10th. Luckily, we keep careful notes so it wasn't difficult to get all the information posted. See the ARCHIVES section on the menu to the right--->. Click on "March 2005", "April 2005", etc. to see the new-old entries. Here's a link to March 2005 for example.

I'm thinking about ending this web log and leaving it as a resource to parents who are faced with similar surgery -- as a "what to expect" kind of thing. I'll probably create a new web log that will have both Sam and Janna entries since Janna's previous web page pretty much went stagnant when Sam came along. Email me if you are interested in the new web log URL-- I won't be posting it here.
Is anyone still reading? :-)

Twelve weeks later:
Sam had no problems dropping the daily Lasix medication. It's a welcome relief not to have to remember to give it now. Sam celebrated his first Halloween as a pumpkin.
