Labs are back at every week for a little as Shayna's EBV went from it's holding pattern in the mid 60,000s to 170,000. We only check the EBV every other week but we have to watch the liver enzyme numbers weekly in case they start to elevate, which indicates damage is being done to the liver. We're back on the Valcyte (yucky-tasting anti-viral) but totally off prednisone (the steroid that suppresses her immune system on top of the lifetime immunosuppressing Prograf). That's the bad news.
The good news for all you Shayna fans is that I've got 5 new Shayna videos on my youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/mrsarava and my husband bought me a new car today. We are now the proud owners of a 2011 Toyota Sienna XLE. For all you non-facebook people I posted May pics last weekend and am working on sorting the June pics of the princess.
It's the baby's bath time so I better get going.

So Big
Happy 16-month Birthday Shayna!
We did her monthly measurements and boy did she grow. She is 440g (15.5oz) heavier, 2.5cm (1") taller, and her head is 1/2cm larger since last month.
Ht = 73cm (28.75"), since it's height not length it doesn't work in the 0-36m growth chart
Wt = 9.50kg (20lb 15oz), 16%-ile
HC = 49cm (19.25"), about 98%-ile or off the chart as the chart only goes to 97%-ile
Her achievements for the week: She learned to kick her feet in the pool. It took a month of working with her (only swim 1 or 2 times a week) but she finally understand the command, "kick your feet." She does more of a dolphin than a flutter kick. She signed, "potty" to me for the first time when she had to go and didn't know where it was (we were at a friend's). While she'd started in her pants, she finished in the potty so I was still quite impressed. She's done it once more but that's it. Maybe another month and we'll be there.
