Quick growth update

This is actually a week old but both of the kids went to the Dr. last week and Micah has gained a whopping 3 pounds and Misrak 4 pounds since coming to America. She outweighs Biruk by 2 pounds. Currently they still have to see the Dr. once a month and than when they are stable on meds and stuff than they go every 3 months.

Misrak has grown an inch and Micah a half inch.

They took more blood from Micah to re-test his thyroid and growth hormones. This wont be back for another 2 weeks. We should get better results with his growth hormones since he now has been on his thyroid meds for over a month.

Dr. F felt why keep him on the meds if they don't do him any good but he definitely needs to be put on something. Misrak is borderline on having to start taking meds.

Also Micah now has another ear infection in the ear that doesn't have a hole and on more antibiotics but he is being a trooper as you can see in the pics.

Next Wednesday will be their BIG DAY. Both kids will have their oral surgery.

Kids are doing super great.
