1 and 1/2 years!!


Back in August of 2008 I posted about Tyler breaking his leg. My mom commented that we needed to take bets on when the next hospital visit would be. Well Tyler was about 2 1/2 then and he is 4 now so I figure it's been 1 and 1/2 years since he has been to the hospital.

Before Tyler could go to school he had to have a physical. We took him to the doctor and he asked if Tyler's testicles dropped. (They should drop by the age of 4) We didn't think anything of it and said yes but the dr told us the next time he had a bath or we got him dressed to just check. Well a couple days later Tyler was in the tub and Justin checked him. He came in the room and told me that they hadn't dropped. I was in denial and put it off for a couple months until I checked so I made an appointment. The dr checked him and then we scheduled an ultra sound. 2 weeks later he had his ultra sound and they found them way up by his bladder. Tyler was really brave and pretty cute. So we scheduled a follow up appointment and the dr said we needed to do surgery. He said we needed to see a urologist up at Primary Childrens. We called the urologist which is funny cause he is the same dr that took care of Tylers uritors when he had his first surgery. The dr checked him out and told us we needed to schedule a date for surgery. We made the date for March 19.

So March 18th we spent the night at Leah's (thank you so much by the way) and was at the hospital at 8:15 a.m. and was out of the hospital by 1 p.m. The nurses and the dr told us that he was going to be sore and in pain for a couple days and that he couldn't have anything between his legs for 2 weeks. They gave us pain killers and told us that he would want to take it easy. YEAH RIGHT!! We are talking about Tyler here. He was jumping on the tramp the very next day, riding his scooter, playing, and having a GREAT time. Nothing slows this kid down.



So ya, it took Tyler a year and half to get back to the hospital. Let's hope that this is the end of our visits for a long time!

The Blues

Ya so I don't know what I'm going to do during the summer having Tyler home everyday without school. I really love it that Tyler's going to school. It's nice to just be with Zoey for a couple hours. She really loves the time we have too.

Well this past week Tyler has been sick. I love it when he gets sick cause all he wants to do is cuddle, but he demands ALL of my attention. I can't get up or do anything cause he wants to snuggle. Zoey's used to having mommy to herself in the mornings and she was not liking the fact that Tyler was getting all of my attention. She has acted out so much the past week and I really think it's because Tyler needed my attention.

So I've been having the blues having Tyler home all week. It's great, but it's pretty exausting as well. He's a great kid and I love him so much, but I love school too. :)

He's finally getting better, just a runny nose, and I'm looking forward to sending him off to school tomorrow. I think he's been missing it too. He likes going to school, and being home all week and now that he's starting to get better I can tell that he is bored.

School is winding down and summer is approaching! Too bad we couldn't have school all year long. ;)
