Update – Kids and Me

With all that went on with me and my ER visit, I neglected to post about my son.  He had his MRI on Monday and I am happy to say that it came back normal.

The children’s hospital was fantastic.  The staff was excellent.  There was a pinball game in the waiting room.  No coins necessary!

They told us it would take about 3 hours.  They had it done in just over an hour.  It was a long day – 4 hours total on the road.   I came home and took a nap!

Ella was invited to a birthday party for a girl she dances with last weekend. It was looking like rain the whole time, but it held off until the end of the party. They had all kinds of things to do.

Each kid got to “adopt a puppy.” They had these little stuffed pups in cardboard doghouses that they could decorate and pipe cleaners and beads to make them a collar.

The hit was bubbles!  They had bubble machines, bubble wands of all shapes and sizes.  The coolest thing was this wand that you put in the solution and when you squeeze the handle, it splits into five bubble wands.  Five times the bubble fun with one dip!

She had such a great time.  She also got to meet my new nephew before me.  Sam took the kids to see him when I was at work last week.

She loved every minute of it.  She kept saying how soft the baby’s skin was.  Lol

And me?  I’ve been resting.  I keep getting up and walking around as I really can’t seem to sit still. Checking my blood pressure every couple hours and trying to follow doctor’s orders.
