We will start with the latest news first - Kevin is finally getting his first tooth! He's been a lot more fussy lately, and we wondered if he was teething, then finally felt it today. He's getting ready to crawl, rocking on his hands and knees. He can roll ...

It's once again been a while since the last update. Kevin is now 8 1/2 months old and doing well! He hasn't had any doctor visits in over a month, and we haven't had any troubles or concerns. Getting Kevin to eat has always been a battle for us, but ...

Kevin is now 7 months old! The Heart Walk last weekend was a great experience, and we would like to thank everyone who donated in honor of Kevin. Before the walk itself, all the heart disease survivors wore red hats and got red balloons and walked the bases of the ...

It's been quite a while since our last update! Kevin has been doing well and enjoying the nice weather. He has rolled over a few more times since the last post, but he just doesn't seem to want to be on his belly. He's getting to taste a lot ...

Kevin is now 5 months old! He started rolling over a couple of weeks ago but isn't quite an expert at it yet. He gets very frustrated being on his tummy and sometimes figures out how to roll over, but sometimes just gets mad. Just a few days ago ...

Kevin continues to grow into a little boy! He's 'coo'ing more every day and making lots of new sounds. He thinks a lot of things are funny and is just barely starting to giggle a little. It looks like he's probably going to figure out how to roll over ...

Kevin's now just over 12 pounds and growing steady. He seems to be developing at a normal pace, maybe just a little bit behind the curve. This is normal, we've been told, for babies who spend so much time in the hospital after they are born. He really likes ...

     Kevin's latest cardiologist visit was yesterday. He weighed in at just over 11 pounds now, which puts him at about the 15th percentile for weight. He's still in the 5th percentile for his length (I forget his actual length). He is now three months old, and has spent more ...
