Today's check up left us with some good news and some not so good news that we had expected.
First, Zoe has grown in the way of height and head circumference so that she is now on the chart, albeit 5%, but on the chart. Her weight however, is now no longer on the chart. Due to the lack of interest in eating or the refusal to eat she is weighing in at 12lb and 1oz. Though Zoe looks good, this is a great cause of worry as she has only gained a couple of ounces in the past 3 weeks. We hope that the test next week can shed some light on what is going on and the doctor would like us to make some more dietary changes after that in order to see what interests Zoe.
We have a follow up visit with Zoe's neurologist, we expect it to be pretty routine and don't expect any big news.
We are also seeing the beginnings of the first tooth. As you can see from the picture anything and everything is making its way into the little one's mouth.
Please continue to keep Zoe in your prayers as we continue to work with her development and her eating.

Dear little Zoe - while we are very impressed with your height extension, you need to understand that in order to sustain that growth, the calorie intake must increase. Our little Tyler is going through the same issues and causing his parents great stress. Hopefully the doctors can figure out the reason for your lack of interest (I'll never understand the lack of interest in food) and get you back on track for the weight gain. And.. you do understand that having teeth means that you get to eat more things?? We are praying that you get the hang of it and start packing on the pounds. Keeping you in our prayers. God Bless.
We love you little one, and are praying for you and your mommy and daddy. Love & Kisses....Aunt Sharon & Uncle Gentry
