Life with four kids is obviously busy. Most days it's a normal busy, meals, naps, nursing, cleaning, and lots of back and forth to and from school.
Not to mention the endless fights to break-up, and the countless times I hear crying children on any given day.
But this last week was a little too busy for my taste, and that's just from Tuesday on. we actually got to sit home all day monday since Halli didn't have school and was still recovering from being sick. It wasn't even fun busy either. Dentist appointments, orthopaedic appointments, head scans, root canals, shots and WAY too many x-rays for one week.
We did learn that Jaden has all the bones, in the correct places in his foot, so that's great news. We just need to get those tendons stretched out, and get him a good pair of high tops that keep him from flexing his foot up.
My jaw doesn't ache anymore thanks to a new dentist and a super fun root canal...yes, my teeth are HORRIBLE!
Jaden also got to have an X-ray done on his head, we'll find out next week what the verdict is. His skull is pretty asymmetrical, so there is the possibility of a helmet, we'll see.
Last but not least, Halli and Peyton had their one year check-ups. Halli was 82% in height, and 78th in weight, and Peyton was 92% in height and 47th in weight. I also learned that as moody as Peyton can be at home, and how quickly she can cry at the drop of a hat, she is a tough cookie at the dr's office. She got four shots and barely cried at all! I was prepared for a major cry fest, but she proved me wrong!
In between all that, and our normal daily grind, I was sitting with Jaden one day, and looked down at his feet to see little hairs and lint all over them from the socks he had been wearing. Apparently, one of the hairs found its way around one of his tiny toes.
See that little red line on his second toe? That hair could have done some serious damage, and it hurt him too, he was very upset when I got it off, and even more upset when I wouldn't leave his toe alone, cause I had to get in real close just to make sure I had actually gotten it off.
We also spent a little time outside enjoying the cooler weather.
I am so in love with this girlie and her funny tongue that is always out when she's concentrating.
So, after that super eventful week, here's to a hopefully quiet and (somewhat) restful week at home!

That IS a busy week. I hope you have a non-doctor filled week this week.
oh wow, glad you found that hair around his toe. He'll have to watch out for all of his sisters and their long hair :)
You've had quite the week I'd say. I like your "Wolrd of Williams"
