Distracted Eating --- Don't try this at home!

As you know we've been having issues getting Ethan to eat very much over the last few weeks (he lost almost a pound this past month).

We've been working on trying to not have him have such fits in his high chair, so we recently started using it as booster seat, but that isn't always good enough for Ethan, so today we ate in the living room while playing with his jungle toy!

He had yogurt for lunch and part of his medicines. This evening we were able to get pureed "taco" chicken as well as applesauce and the rest of his medicine (minus his bedtime dose of Cystadane) in him. We were all very happy.

Faces of Peroxisomal Biogenesis Disorders

This Saturday we are hosting the first annual Pancakes for PBD benefit. All the proceeds will go to the Global Foundation for Peroxisomal Disorders to help offset the costs for our family and others like us to attend this summer's 2012 Family Support Conference in Orlando, FL. We hope that this will become an annual tradition and allow us to help raise awareness and money for peroxisomal biogenesis disorders. Here are just a few of the faces of PBD.

Glasses --- Take 2

Last night we picked up Ethan's new glasses. Today he wore them for almost two hours in the morning, an hour in the afternoon and 45 minutes in the evening.
