Lucas update

So it seems that Lucas really is going to be stubborn. When he was born, the doctor noticed a slight heart murmur but did not seem too worried about it. He checked it again at his 2 week appointment and he still had it, but it was not as bad. The doctor wanted Lucas to get an ECHO done to see what is going on. If there is something there, he wanted to catch it early. So we went yesterday to Cardinal Glennon yesterday. Lucas did very well and only got a little fussy a couple of times. The pediatrician has already received the results and it seems that Lucas has a slight heart defect. He wants Lucas to see a heart specialist to look at it closer but he still does not seem very worried about it. So we will go back to Cardinal Glennon sometime next week to see the specialist and will update when we know more.
