may tobey update

Tobey and his dog, Miles

Tobey dressed himself.  Only needed me to zip up his pants and turn his shirt around.

Watching his favorite show, Pocoyo

Poor Tobes has been through a lot lately, which is probably why I haven't been blogging as much.  A few weeks ago, Tobey suffered a rectal prolapse.  Fortunately, they do not hurt.  Unfortunately, they cause moms to freak out.  After discussing it with the doctor, sounds like the kid is constipated.  I felt like such an idiot that I didn't know, but the doctor explained to me that child constipation is not the same as adult constipation.  And while rectal prolapses are uncommon, chronic constipation is very common.  So to make a long story short, he is now on a regiment to get his colon back down to size.  I'm having to work hard to get him to eat the right foods and avoid the bad, but to get this kid to eat anything is a battle.  That being said, he's been very brave and has been a champ, like always.
