YMCA

So went and checked out the YMCA last Saturday. It was wonderful and we ended getting a membership. We swam saturday and sunday and played a little basketball on sunday. We invited my brother, sister in law and the kids on Sunday to join us since we have free passes. They had such a blast that they signed up also :) The kids swan there little hearts out and then played basketball for a while. So glad we decided to join lots of things for the kids to do since we have such long fall and winter.

Matthews 1st trip to the Dentist

Monday I took Matthew to his very first dental appt. I took him to the Childrens Dental Village on Evergreen. He was a little shy walking in. They make it very kids feel really welcome and the whole office is set up as a jungle theme with animals and fish and a ship...So much fun and a movie on the TV to watch.
We went back with assistant and she was great with matthew he didn't have to lay down they just showed him how to brush his teeth with a regular tooth brush then they counted his teeth. Then we went into the xray room where they took pictures of his teeth he did very well also he sat there while they put the diferent films in his mouth. BIG BOY!!!!
The dr then came to visit us. He told me that Matthew has 6 sugar bugs...He will need to have two of them fixed for sure and 4 that we are going to have to watch and make sure they don't get worse. Mommy was a little nervous just because he has such a great time at the dentist. But i have to be strong for my baby. He will be going in in two weeks they will give him a little versad and Koolaid to make him sleep and not able to fight them.
We have been doing better on flossing and brushing even though we brush really well...Mommy isn't the best at flossing so we have it down now.

Good News

We went to the Dr again to f/u with his Croup since he still wasn't getting any better and also his smashed little fingers. Dr said that he needs to be on a steriod for three more days hopefully it will take the inflammation down so we can stop coughing so hard. He also said that the xray report was in that there are no broken or fx fingers. Thank you god. Told us to take the splint off so he can start using his fingers.
Matthew and I went to the store and he picked out spider man bandaides to wrap a couple of the fingers. He was a good boy let me take the splint off and put the bandaides on.
He is in bed and sleeping i hope he gets some sleep and mommy needs sleep to. :)

What a Weekend
















We did not have a very good weekend. Matthew has been pretty sick for the last couple months.
We took him into the urgent care saturday afternoon since wasn't feeling well and coughing so much he was gagging. They sent us home saying that we just need to watch him. That evening at about 11am he was having diffuctly breathing turning red in the face and coughing so much that he wasbreaking little blood vessels in his face. We took him to Valley Hospital and they got him in right away. The staff was amazing there. They treated him with a steriod and zpack to hopefully help clear up the end of his ear infection and start helping him feel better. We got home at 130am.
Sunday Matthew woke up feeling much better still a little tired because my monkey no matter what time he goes to bed he gets up at 630am. We had an accident in the garage and he got his fingers caught in the garage he was holding on to the track and the wheels smached his pinky, ring, middle and pointer finger pretty bad. We washed it up pretty good, but deceided we should proabably get an xray of it to make sure everything was ok.
Another trip to Valley Hospital to get his hand looked at and they did an xray of it no broken fingers thank god! But they are pretty beat up they put him in a splint.
What a weekend is all i can say..........

We planned going over to my brother and sister in laws for dinner this evening, but was canceled last night because Preston is pretty sick. :( So now are evening is free probably should get to my house cleaning since i had a pretty busy work week. Tomorrow is Sunday and we haven't been to Church in two weeks Matthew has been sick so we are going tomorrow. No other plans but to enjoy to enjoy this beautiful weekend.
