Another Surgery...

Just ear tubes this time, his second set. He of course did wonderfully. The fluid Dr. Moe removed from his ears was as thick as glue so he has not been hearing very well for awhile. They tested his hearing afterward and he had a mild deficit but they said it could take a couple of weeks for the gunk to clear out and they weren't concerned with his hearing at this time. His face is a little banged up, he had the biggest fat lip last weekend. He is a klutz with those braces on and it looks like we beat him. Once again I felt I had to explain all of his injuries, the doctors just laugh at me.
These two were a little too much for just me to handle. Callie started the day by throwing up all over herself. She wore a jacket and a diaper most of the day till Amy brought this summer outfit. She was hitting all the kids in the waiting room (she may look sweet, don't be fooled) and Cade was kissing them to smooth it over. Rachel was upstairs in the cancer clinic so Amy and I got to eat lunch together and her in-laws came and took Callie off my hands. In the meantime, I caged her up with Cade.



The anesthesiologist wanted me to go into the OR with them to help calm Cade and put the little animal to sleep. I guess he looked like trouble. So I held the gas mask to his face and watched his eyes roll back in his head. Very wierd... even for a nurse like me. Cade recovered quickly and was running out of the hospital after the surgery.

Rachel's Party

We are all so excited that Rachel is another year older. We had a big party for her and Amy rented a jumping castle for the whole day. We were there all day getting her money's worth. They had a great time and were pretty worn out when the day was done.

















It's Ok Rach, It's your party, you can cry if you want to...




trying out the new toys

Stockdale Pep Rally

Grandma Charlin's students wanted Callie to be in the pep rally. The Cheerleaders tricked the football boys by telling them they would judge a bikini contest they were in but it turned out to be little girls. It was pretty funny and Callie was adorable. Charlin's cousin made Callie an adorable cheerleader outfit but I didn't get any good pics. There will be more to come.
Cade got a t-shirt too.
Dad was showing Cade his old stomping ground. Don't you know he felt cool just being in that gym.
Callie got a tierra and a wand for being in the constest. She loved them but Cade broke her wand. Guess he was jealous.
Posing with Landry and the cheerleaders...


Happy 2nd Birthday Rachel!

Cade couldn't wait for that cake.
Callie liked the happy birthday song

Rach didn't feel well so Cade and Callie took over and helped her out with opening her gifts.






Callie is going to do very well opening gifts on her birthday.



I know Cade looks goofy but his braces are too slippery to walk on so he wears his shoes till we lay him in bed.
Cade loved the card that sang "girls just wanna have fun." He carried it around the house dancing.
