Well, between Titus and I, we have been busy going to the doctor. Titus still continues to have trouble gaining weight so we are trying to figure out why that could be. We are trouble shooting and are wondering if it is a supply issue (not enough milk), or that maybe he has acid reflux so he is limiting his intake. If it is a supply issue, we are wondering if the medicine I am on for my blood pressure is causing me to have a low milk supply. I take him back next week to get him weighed again. Hopefully, we will be able to solve this problem soon. Then I had another doctors appointment and my blood pressue is still high so we are trying another medicine. Hopefully it will work, and my blood pressure will return to normal soon. Some women (I am one of the lucky ones) have more problems with high blood pressure following delivery than they did when they were pregnant. So it is not abnormal, just annoying. SO, please continue to pray that Titus would gain weight and we would figure out the cause of the problem. Also, please pray for lower blood pressure for me, so that I can go off of the blood pressure medicine. Thank you for your continued prayers and support as we continue on this journey of parenting. There's always something to worry about, huh? I am feeling pretty tired and worn out from all of this, so I would appreciate your prayers for that as well. Thankfully, we have a beautiful baby boy who is so easy to please. I hope you enjoy the latest pictures of Titus.

I loved visiting with you and Titus. He is just a doll and getting to hold him was the hilight of my week. Give him a hug for me. Love, Kathy
Please don't get yourselves overly anxious about him not gaining a whole lot of weight...if he's anything like his cousins, Ashley, Tess, and Ella then he's doing just fine. Tess didn't grow an ounce the ENTIRE 12th month!! Us Holcombs have skinny kids....we love you Megan, Jeremiah and baby Titus!!! Love, Paul....AKA Uncle Paul and Holcomb brother #1
