Kiddo update!

Well, the kids fared better at the Dr then their Mommy did. I am going in for a colposcopy next week as I have abnormal cells from my pap, along with some other "poor" results from a test they took. I have NEVER had that....so I'm kinda concerned, but it will NOT ruin my Black Friday shopping, or my favoritest holiday, Thanksgiving!

Zac is 49 lbs (I knew we wouldn't break that 50 lb. barrier this year!) and Lillie is 40 lbs. Zac has huge tonsils that might need to come out in the next few years, and he also has 20/40 vision in ONE eye, so he is going to make a trip to the optometrist in the near future. Glasses would be so cute on him! LOL! Lillie was fine in every aspect, except that she had to get shots to get ready for Kindergarten next year. That was a downer for our yearly visit, but hey, it was nothing that a visit to Coldstone Creamery didn't fix.

And tonite Zac earned his "Bobcat" badge in cobscouts. It was a darling ceremony (can you say that about scouts?) and he was pretty hyped up about it. He sold his tush off in popcorn ($695 to be exact!) and is enjoying the time with his Daddy!

Lillie fared REAL well at her parent/teacher conference the other night. Her speech is moving right along and they are really pleased at how well she writes and all the words she writes. She doesn't know all of her ABCs yet (by sight or to write) but she's writing lots of names and words like "love" and "zoo" and "boo" everyday. And her handwriting is far neater than her brothers! Girls, gotta love them!

Zac is doing well in school too! He's reading at an almost 3rd grade level and is finally getting the hang of spelling tests. He literally spells everything like it sounds, and as you know, that's not always the way....which is SO confusing, because that's all they learned last year. Sound it out, spell it like it sounds. Move onto first grade and BAM, words are spelled totally different! Oh well, we're getting it...slowly but surely.

The other kids, the furry ones, are doing ok. Max is STILL sick...on steroids and some other meds....fun evenings for me, the pill popper....I just have to remember that it hopefully will not be forever. Right? Anyone????

I hope all goes well with your colonoscopy.
I had one this year and all was well...
The prep is HORRIBLE, but the good drugs will make you miss the procedure..and a few hours after!
