5 months, 1 week

Dear Coby,

Today we went to Dr. Franco to have your nephrostomy tube removed!  You were such a brave boy! You did not even cry at all.  First we walked to Summer street, it took us about 10 minutes.  The weather was so nice that I could not imagine bundling you up in the car.  While we were walking, we must have passed some trees that I am allergic to because I could not stop sneezing!  When we got there, D. Franco said that you were doing great!  He had to remove the nephrostomy tube.  The tube was about 7-8 inches long, black and white striped with a cap on the end, and was in your left kidney.  It slithered out like a snake when the doctor removed the stitches that were holding it in. Nana had to look away!  Dr. Franco said that we can give you a bath tomorrow, you can bounce in your jumperoo (yay!), and you can start swimming next Monday!

After we left the office, we walked to Target so I could get some Zyrtec for these stinking allergies...  You slept the whole time we were walking.  When we got home, you were so excited to go in your jumperoo!  We were shocked to see that your feet now touch the floor and you don't need the ottoman lid anymore. You are growing up so fast!

I love you always and forever,
Mama
