All for me?

Henry got breakfast this AM. His first attempt at food in 4 days. And, although, he looks really excited. He didn't really eat any of it save for a few bites of gogurt. He wanted to try Eddie's bacon, egg, and cheese croissant and had a few bites. Then, spent the next few minutes gagging like he was going to puke. But, he didn't. Small steps. He weighed a little over 22 pounds this AM. Poor baby weighed 21 and a half at one year, 5 months ago. He's lost soooo much weight.
The way that they do the patient menus around here is really cool. We have a huge menu and we're told to call whenever we want to eat and order ourselves. They said if we wanted something and it wasn't on the menu they can make it. How about that for service? Plus, since they have a Dairy Queen and Pizza Hut he can have ice cream, milkshakes, blizzards, pizza w/ every meal (hypothetically). The menu has everything a child could want, including make your own omelets (breakfast served at any time), smoothies, soy milk, and even pb and j without the crust. :)

He looks SOOOO much better. Oddly enough, as soon as I saw this pic, I thought his expression looks JUST like Eddie's when he's excited about what he gets to eat. :)

What an expression!

I'm sure he'll gain weight back quickly when he's all better... he always does!
