The Dr. called with their blood work results. Their kidney function was fine. Their vitamin D was fine. Whew! Their thyroid function was fine, but their thyroid stimulating hormone was high. So, the Dr. said that the endocrinologist will look into that. We should have the results of the ultrasounds soon too. We are grateful that their blood work came back with good results. In light of the good news, I decided to do a fun update on the kids.
Let the record show… I LOVE MY KIDS!! Not that anyone doubted!
Bentley, the elephant, never forgets! He is very cautious and thoughtful. He is in the “ask a million and one questions” stage. He loves to do puzzles and is still really into Cars. He is pretty quick and smart. I love to watch him use his imagination, he is getting really good at pretending!
Here are some things that we hear daily:
“So, Mom, what did you do today?”
“Why?”
“How?”
“What are we going to eat for…?”
“Can we be awake?”
“This is hard school, Mom!”
Marseille, the hummingbird, is so little and busy all the time. I mean all the time! She is definitely talking more and very well, I might add. She is very dramatic, observant and agile. I love that she makes up her own songs and she loves to dance. Her new favorite thing is the movie Tangled. It’s fun to watch her get “into” something. It all started because I said, “Look Rapunzel has crazy hair.”Marseille chimed back, “Just like Marseille!”
Here are some things we hear daily:
“It’s for my birthday!!!”
“My birthday is coming up in July!”
“Aww. It’s so cute.”
“It’s my favor-ite! I like it soooo bad!”
“Taa-ddddaaaaa!”
“That is so cool!”
I’m so incredibly blessed and grateful for each day that I get with these two! Believe me, there are days that I have to fight to remember that, as they are hitting and yelling at each other! But more often than not I am thankful!
xo, nikki :)
