Lots of firsts

Brady is trying his hardest to catch up to his older brother! This week Brady has sprouted his first tooth (and working on a full mouthful more at the moment), started scooting (bye-bye luxury of leaving in one place) AND started saying DaDa! Very exciting stuff for our family!
Thursday morning Brady had his follow up swallow study to determine if he was still aspirating. Good news, he was not. Not as great news is he's still not swallowing as he should. Much like the pulmonologist had suspected. Fingers crossed and saying our prayers Brady will outgrow the issue by our July 1st deadline.
Brady had been to the doctor two weeks ago for a swollen gland and found he had an ear infection. At his pulmonologist appointment the following week his ear had not improved so he prescribed a stronger antibiotic. Brady was still messing with his ears and shaking his head, so I took him back to the doctor Saturday morning to get his ears rechecked. His other ear had an infection. Two rounds of antibiotics without working, so the doctor gave Brady a shot this time instead. We are going back tomorrow morning for another shot and possibly again Wednesday for another. We are also praying this does the trick. If he gets another infection close to this one, off to the ENT we go, probably for tubes to be put in his ears. For as easy of a baby Brady is and happy and easy going, he's sure had his dose of sickies and worrying his momma. We're over it.
As I type this though, Brady is bouncing away in his jumper having belly laughs at his big brother. Best sound ever.
