This smile brought to you by Ritz crackers!
That’s right, Gannon has been eating crackers such a small step in the right direction!
Today he woke up and won’t let me start his feed. I said that was fine, but you have to eat and drink today. I gave him a bowl of crackers and he’s been doing great.
I told him I needed to give him medicine in his tubie (Tylenol and ibuprofen) and he said he didn’t have any ouchies so he didn’t need it!
Gannon started out with one single cracker on Thursday and has been slowly progressing since. He even brushed his teeth in speech therapy which was a big step too!

Progress is slow but we are so grateful for even the smallest of steps! The best Christmas present would be Gannon eating on his own!
*edit* the boys are now wrestling and dripping popsicles all over the house and I don’t even care. I’m so happy to hear the chaos from the older two and Gannon is all about popsicles today so I’m for it!

Oh how pleased I am to see Gannon grin. All the best to you all.
Oh I cannot imagine how full your Mommy heart is today! Yea Gannon for crackers and Yea Carver for engaging him to play and have fun! I bet you’re taking some deeper breaths today! Hugs to you and Craig as well as the boys.
I’m so happy to see that Gannon is feeling so much better. It’s indeed a great Christmas present!
This is the news I’ve been waiting to hear! God is answering the prayers of many people. So happy for you.
I am so glad for your good news. Your family was on my mind, but I couldn’t check how Gannon is doing because I was either at the hospital (my dad, bad news), or with my mom where there’s spotty internet. So yay! Go Gannon!!!!
So glad to read the good news about Gannon, my prayers continue for his continued progress.
