making progress

We're still at the hospital just hanging out.  This morning Aidan did the upper GI test.  He was SUCH a good boy.  He was absolutely starving since his last meal was at 4 am and the test wasn't until 11am.  He hung in there though and didn't fuss too much, he has such a good demeanor!  He didn't even mind drinking the contrast, that's how hungry he was.  When they had enough contrast for the photos they tried to take the bottle away and he DID NOT like that!   They ended up giving him a bottle of water and that seemed to keep him happy.  
The doctors were just here and said there is just the tiniest bit of reflux at the bottom of his esophagus but nothing that should really cause problems.  Based on the tests and results (most of them have come back already) they think the episodes are related to the viruses he's had.  So we will be going home sometime today. :)  Hopefully his congestion gets better soon and he can get back to his normal happy self.
