Feeding Tube Anniversary

As of today (April 29, 2011) The Littlest Apple has had a feeding tube for one whole year.

One year ago today (April 29, 2010), The Littlest Apple got his first NG tube.  At that time, he weighed 22 pounds (2 years and 7 months old).

5 rather rocky months later, The Littlest Apple had surgery for placement of his g-button.

Since then, things have been great!

Here’s The Littlest Apple today (3 years and 7 months old)….

He’s now 29.2 pounds and 37 inches tall.  He’s finally on the charts for weight (3%) and height (10%).  We’re so thankful for his feeding tube (g-button)!
