Braxton's 15 month well visit

Braxton had his 15 month well visit on Friday and everything looked great.  He is now 24lbs and 32 inches long, which is 50% for weight and 75% for height.  I believe that is what Liam was at his age.  He was so happy with Dr Mary but he wasn't so happy with the nurse when he received to vaccines.  Poor little guy.

The boys are still practicing baseball, I believe their first games are next weekend. 

We had a lazy weekend, just relaxed and went to church.  Looking forward to Monster Jam on Saturday and finishing up our bathroom, the tile floor is going in this weekend.

Another tooth down


Nathan lost his third tooth last night, his first top one.  He looks different and it feels different to him too.  The tooth fairy brought him two gold dollar coins.

Never Ending Dr appointments

I consider myself lucky, having 3 boys who are fairly healthy.  It seems like over the past 5 months we have been at doctor appointments every week, in addition to normal speech appointments for Liam.  Lat week I received an email from Nemours letting me know that some test results were in for Liam.  I looked it up and it was results from back in November when Dr. Mary had blood drawn.  Unfortunately all the results were never sent to her and she wasn't aware that his IGE results were a little hight, the normal range is 1.5-22.5 and Liam was at 83.3.  This means that even though the allergies he was specially tested for came back normal it is likely that he is allergic to something.  So now I am waiting to hear about setting up an appointment at the allergiest.

He also had another stomach migrane episode last week, woke up at 2am cry that his stomach hurt.  Fortunately he didn't vomit, not sure if it was because he has been on the medicine for a week and a half but he was restless for about an hour.  Turned out he had a corndog for dinner, I really think hot dogs are a trigger for him.  I know he has nitrates regularlly, like in ham, but for some reason everything he has had a hotdog in the past 3 months an episode has occured.

Nathan is collecting money for the American Heart Association by doing Jump Rope for Heart.  I sent out emails about a week ago, thanks for everyone who has sent in a donation.  Donations ate due by March 2nd so if you are still going to donate please do.  I can send you the link to where you can make an online donation if you didn't receive an email. 

Our shower is officially done and we are back to using it.  I am so happy to have it back and so is Matt.  It turned out really good.  Now just have to change out the medicine cabinet, replace the light fixture, tile the floor and paint and put up some new molding.  It is looking really good.  I will post pictures once it is complete.

Booked our spring break vacation, we will be headed to the Charlotte area for 5 days.  Going to stay a few nights at the Great Wolf Lodge.  It is going to be a surprise but I am sure the boys are going to have a blast.  Liam is like me he loves staying at hotels so he will just love that nevermind the indoor waterpark.

Baseball/t-ball practice started this week.  Nathan is on the Twins, 7U league, and Liam is on the Reds, 5U league.  The 5U league was short on coaches so Matt was talked into coaching.  Nathan is on a pretty good team so hopefully he will improve some.  He really has never played before so everything is new to him, just have to keep him focused and away from playing in the dirt.
