School love

When Adam got home from school today he said, "School is the best thing in my life!" :)

Ultrasound

Adam had his ultrasound last Friday.  Got the results back today:  no node was noted on the liver (say that 10 times fast).  That went away thank goodness!  Spleen - well, it's still enlarged.  It measured 9.9 cm; a tiny bit up from last time of 9.7 cm.  Doc just said repeat at the usual 3 months.

When our ultrasound tech Kelly was about to image Adam's spleen, I told her how it's been enlarged and how our doc wasn't concerned but I was annoyed because I wanted to know why.  She showed me his spleen in relation to his kidney. She said that they don't usually get worried until the spleen gets soo large it covers the kidney.  His does not even reach his kidney.  So I guess that's good!  She also told me that the internal organs tend to grow before a growth spurt. Well, he hasn't really grown any but maybe his body is gearing up for one.  Let's hope! 

Adam is still loving school! 

Minecraft YouTube-r

Adam loves these British guys called Stampylongnose and Ballistic Squid that have YouTube channels in which they commentate as they play Minecraft and other games.  I don't know what the fascination is in watching other people play (and the one guy has a really annoying laugh) but Adam will sit and watch these videos for hours.  This morning Adam got up and got on the computer. He was talking away playing Minecraft and I thought he was just imitating these guys.  A little while later he was all "Oh, Man!!  It didn't work!".  I found out that he had been recording himself trying to make a video to upload to YouTube but he used PhotoBooth which only records you - not your computer screen.   I had to do a little research and learned that QuickTime will record your screen and audio.  Sooo..Adam now has a video of himself narrating his playing of Minecraft...and a YouTube channel under his Minecraft name (stampy squid man). He wants to post more Minecraft videos (which are incredibly boring but his little voice is soo cute!).  I think that he thinks that if he gets a ton of subscribers like Stampy and Squid, he will get paid like they do.  :)
