11 months

Toby has had a fairly good week. He is still being fed by a continuous drip through his new g-tube, but we have begun turning it off during the day and trying to reintroduce the bottle. He has not been very interested in it yet, but is taking a little bit more each day. He saw the pediatrician yesterday (for his monthly shot) and has gained 4 ounces this week.

He seems to be recovering well from the surgery. For a while afterwards, he seemed unwilling to use his stomach muscles and sit up. Now he is back to the vertical, playing, and a lot of fun.

He does still seem to have reflux-like discomfort at times. So no verdict yet on how successful the surgery was.

I know it has been a while since any photos went up. The camera took a vacation, but has returned. Here's a look at him without the ng tube (hooray!) and enjoying a good book.
