The GFCF brownies are in the oven cooking. We're sending them to daycare with Ryan so that he can celebrate his birthday with his friends at school. They smell good and I even added some mini chocolate chips (GFCF chocolate chips, of course).
Ryan did well taking his medicine tonight. He's developed a routine already. He has to sit in one particular spot on the kitchen counter. And he must take it in a syringe with me holding his chin. And after each small push of the syringe he swallows, takes a sip of water, and then continues to take the medicine. I tried to give it to him tonight in the opening between our family room and kitchen so that he could continue watching a show (another bedtime ritual) but he said, "No mama, I have to take it here" and he proceeded into the kitchen to his spot at the counter, where I had to hoist him up.
And we were able to get a third day of stool samples. We packaged everything up according to the directions, and FedEx is picking up the box tomorrow. I was getting nervous that we weren't going to get the third sample, and the lab has to receive it within five days of the first sample. So tonight was our last chance, and he pulled through for us! What a good boy!
Tomorrow is Ryan's birthday; 4 years old! Many friends and family members will be wearing our official t-shirt of The Ryan Express.
