Roll over, roll over!

11.1.10
Tonight Grayson rolled over for the first time! I am still shocked! We were doing tummy time and he was holding his head up so well, pushing with his elbows and lifting his chest. Then all of the sudden he pushed with his left hand and threw his left leg behind him and off he went! I was just in shock!!! So, of course I put him right back onto his belly to see if he would do it again and had Jai come and watch and he did! Then I cried!!! That is such a huge milestone for him! When I finished crying and giving him hugs and kisses, I got out the video camera and tried to catch it. I was waiting and waiting and he was just about to do it again when Jones came over to join in on the fun. He wanted to lay down on the floor with Grayson so I had to put the camera down, by the time i picked it up, I was only able to catch part of it...but he had done it again!!!

Since Grayson was 2 months early, he is only supposed to be doing what a 2 month old is able to do. It is called his Corrected Gestational Age. For ex, if a full term baby sits up at 6 months, Grayson is expected to be able to sit up by 8 months. If he can not by 8 months, then he is considered delayed developmentally. Babycenter.com says that by 4 months old a baby should be able to roll from tummy to back. Grayson is 4 months old so maybe this means that he is catching up with other 4 month old babies!! I am so proud of him!!!

Grayson and I both have a little cold. He was pitiful this morning with a runny nose, but otherwise he doesn't act like he is miserable. Hopefully this will pass soon.

As it turns out, we may end up stopping Grayson's caffeine earlier than we thought. I got his prescription filled on the 22nd and received a 30 day supply. The caffeine is in vials, 10 vials per box. I usually hang on to the caffeine box and just throw it all away when I get the new supply. Now I can not find the other two boxes anywhere and I think I threw them away thinking that they were the older boxes. I'm not quite sure what I am going to do and it has me in a really bad mood. Insurance will not let me refill the prescription until Nov 13th. Of course I could buy a months worth of medication without insurance for $1700...yeah that's not happening. The caffeine vials are 3mls, and he only needs 1.2ml/dose, however the manufacturer says that they are single use vials because they are preservative free. So, I don't know what to do. I will call Dr. Head tomorrow and see what she says. Yet again, I can't help but get really upset at the lady that erased an entire months worth of Grayson's apnea alarms because if I had that information, I might know if he really even still needed the caffeine. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

On a lighter note, Jones had a lot of fun on Halloween. He was the cutest Lil Count. I have the cutest picture of him and his friend Elaina walking hand in hand up the side walk in their costumes! It was so cute, how he reached out to hold her hand and walk up the side walk! He was very shy with trick or treating, but he loved answering the door bell and passing out candy at home. By the end of the night he was picking up our bowl of candy and giving each child one piece of candy! Then we all sat in the living room and ate TCBY! YUM!! It was a lot of fun!!

I will upload some pictures tomorrow. This cold is getting the best of me and it is time for a bubble bath! Nite nite!!
