Blood Test Results

We had Camden's blood tested yesterday at a local hospital. It wasn't a pleasant experience. It took a while for them to find a vein on his little arm. Once they found one they were able to get the blood out fairly quickly. I think the worst part of it for Camden was being held down. He recovered quickly probably because of the push pop I had waiting for him. They gave him a stuffed frog for being such a good trooper (they also tried to use it to entertain him while getting his blood drawn). He doesn't really like it much. I think it reminds him of the whole experience. He now has three stuffed animals from three different trips to the hospital in the last year (not all the trips were for him) but we won't get into all of that now.
The test results came back today and everything looks completely normal. Praise God!! They tested for many different things and everything came back with good results. Camden's doctor believes he is just a picky eater. This completely baffles Steven and me as we were never picky eaters. This must come from other members in our family. We won't name names but you know who you are...(living in Georgia). We will still monitor him closely with weight checks about every six weeks. We will do all we can to fatten him up. I am also looking into meeting with a nutritionist to get some more helpful ideas. I am still convinced that being a mom is the hardest job in the world. It just doesn't ever get easier, but it's totally worth it.
