misc.

Kaden: Feeling much better now. Back to day-care the last couple of days and, while a little more tired & grumpy than usual, they say he's doing well. He's sleeping at night without much trouble coughing, which is certainly nice for all of us. He spied Dad today when Leah was dropped off after her doctor's appointment (see below) and shed enough tears that he now gets to spend the rest of the day with Dad.



Leah: Had a routine follow-up appointment with Dr. Curry (ENT) today. Both of her tubes are out, and, as I think you all know, she's already had two ear infections in the left ear. He said the antibiotics are clearing the infection up nicely and since we're hopefully getting closer to some warmer weather he's not going to recommend doing tubes again. He'll see her again in a month (sooner if she has more problems) and we'll go from there. Big sigh of relief.



Cody: About the same. Talks like a maniac ALL the time. Seems to be doing well in school and is excited about all the stuff he's learning to read.



Hannah: See above. Ditto for the talking like a maniac. She seems to be doing a bit better with her concentration, etc. with her medications, so we'll leave her on those for now. Her birthday is Saturday, so she's obviously excited about that. Hoping to have her first sleepover (just one girl, ok, my house is full enough as it is!) but we're waiting for a weekend when Dad will be available, too.



Weekend plans: Celebrate Hannah's birthday on Saturday. May try to take H&C to the Spring Fling at their school on Saturday, but that's uncertain since my mom & dad are still a bit under the weather. Headed to Peewinkle's Puppet Studio on Sunday with Dolly as well as Jennie & Ryan for our first puppet show.



Other news: Next Wednesday I'll be joining Leah's day-care class for a trip to the Children's Museum. Leah's very excited that Mommy will be riding the bus with her and I think she's looking forward to the "Georgie" exhibit. I just signed up for a yoga class here at the hospital, so I'm super excited about that. I've been whining about wanting to get back into yoga for months now and this seemed like an excellent opportunity. It's Tuesday nights, so I'll probably only be able to attend every other week, but that's better than nothing!



Picture for the day: What a difference a year makes.
