Updates...

Well, I haven't been updating on here as much as I had been. Where to begin....
Nate is now attending a library program every Monday morning. Hopefully it will help his speech and his socialization! He has gone two Mondays and I will just say that they have NOT been pleasant. He loves the kids and wants to play....he just doesn't want to sit down in a structured environment. He just wants to run around and play. They start with reading a few short books, then singing and dancing time (which for some reason Nate hates when anyone sings now), and then there is a project at the end. He enjoys the projects. Thank god his speech therapist goes with me, because she at least tends to Cole while I am trying to calm down Nate. I will give it a few more weeks. I hope it will get better, because it would be a nice intro into pre-school in September.

As for Cole, I am happy to say that he is sleeping better. He is still waking up once or twice a night for a quick binky, music, or Tylenol or Orajel. However, I will take it.....compared to what it had been. I am also happy to say that as of last night the boy is finally rolling over from his back to his stomach! It only took him about 9 months. We go for his 9 month check up at the end of the month. As for his questionable asthma....he is doing better. We are only doing the Albuterol treatments as needed.....not even once a day. Sometimes he could use it, but with a little rest, the wheezing stops.

Jay is doing fine....really nothing new to report on him......lucky! :)

I had my cardiac ablation this past Tuesday. I had to be there for 8:30am, they took me into pre-op at 9:30 and I was on the table at 12:00. I slept comfortably through the procedure (thanks to anesthesia). The procedure lasted about 2 hours. I was kind of out of it the first night...especially the first few hours. They did 3 approaches....one in each groin and one in my neck. All three sites are looking good. My groin sites are a little bruised, but looking better. My legs are still pretty sore, but I will be going back to work tomorrow night. I am on a lift restriction until Sunday of 10 pounds. However, I am cheating with Cole.....I can't help that one. However, I have/will not lift Nate. All said and done, it went pretty well. I stayed overnight and was discharged on Wednesday.
