Lewis didn't get his MRI today. They got him onto the papoose board, but he woke up on the way down there and he wouldn't calm down while he was strapped in. Apparently it is protocol to try to get a baby's MRI without a sedative. If that fails, then they sedate the baby. So, he'll be scanned another day, with something to make it a little less traumatic. Since this took so long, we didn't really have a chance to work with Lewis on his apple sauce-eating-skills.
The orthopedic surgery resident came by to check on Lewis' hips, based on the developmental pediatricians's concerns from a couple of days ago. We weren't there, but we're told that everything looked fine - the orthopedist didn't feel there was any reason to be concerned about Lewis' hips. No followup scheduled.
The rest of the day was uneventful. Lewis slept for hours this afternoon, and was able to calm himself down without being picked up at least a couple of times.
