McKayla had a appt with Dr Marsden to have her feet checked. She has a really knobby bone type knob thingy on the outside of her foot. They did X-ray's to make sure nothing funny was going on with her feet. Dr. M called us tonight and let us know that the pic's looked great.. We were relieved. They also did a bone age on Kayla and that was great also. She is 10years 3months old and her bone age is 10 years. So we are very grateful tonight that all of her tests came out normal. We will watch McKayla's feet for the next couple of weeks and if they don't seem to get any better we will taker her back in again for further testing.

Parker had a appt with Dr Nygaard. He needed his shots, and so he had to get his well checkup too. He was so tough, I know that shots are painful especially the tetnus shot. He did great. He also had to get the ole "cough" test done. Dr Nygaard asked him if he wanted his mom to leave the room and of course he said no. He was thinking it would be just like last year. lol.. I thought so too. However, I do have to say I was a little embarrassed and told them both that I think I would wait outside the next time he(Dr. Nygaard) did that because I don't remember him doing that last year. He then lets me know that he doesn't do that exam until they are 12. Sooo, I then realize I have just been embarrassed and caught off guard..By this point we are all laughing and I'm sure my face was probably pretty red. Sorry Parker I didn't know! I'm sure this isn't the first or the last time right! I still can't believe my little guy is 12. Time really flies doesn't it. Parker also has a slight scoliosis and Dr. N. wants us to help keep an eye on it. So we will do that. Well I am grateful for such a caring Pediatrician. He truly cares about my kids and takes the time to make sure they get the care they need.

I just want to say how grateful I am to have healthy kids. I know what a blessing it is to have children who are healthy. I am grateful for a husband who loves me. I am grateful for my parents teaching me so many things. I am so grateful for friends who help me to realize all the wonderful things around me. I am thankful for my testimony. In case you are wondering, I am going to try something new that I found on one of my friends blogs. I am going to try to list several things that I am grateful for each time I post.
