2 months old...

drew is 2 months old today. he is growing up too fast.
specifics @ 2 months: weight: 11 lbs. 5 oz.
height: 23 inches
smiles
"talks"
loves to be held






we also found out today that drew has scoliosis (curvature of the spine). he will have to go to a specialist to find out how severe the scoliosis is and what will have to be done for it. from what i have read on the internet, treatment ranges from physical or occupational therapy to surgery. of course surgery is for REALLY bad cases. his pediatrician seemed a little surprised and said that scoliosis in babies as young as drew is rare. it is usually detected much later. hopefully we caught it early enough that it will be a quick and easy fix.
please keep him in your prayers and hopefully all will be well soon.

Such a cutie! A friend of mine and her son both had scoliosis and sought treatment through a chiropractor. Just a thought.

look at that baby's pointy ears!!! Is his hair red? It looks like it. Did the doctor say how severe the scoliosis is? (did I spell that right?)
