Guess what.......

Addi got braces today!!! Yup, you read that right.... braces. She is darn cute with them too. She chose light purple and pink colored rubber bands for the brackets this visit. She is starting out on the right path to take care of them too. She has already brushed her teeth every time she eats something. Hopefully that habit will continue! She will have them for almost 2 years and eventually she will have to have headgear as well, but they figure that won't begin for several more months. We'll keep you posted, but wanted to share the pics with all of you! We miss you all and hope you are all doing well!!!

Sorry it's taken so long....

Yup... been a while since the last post. Sorry about that! It has gotten crazy around here. As most of you know I started school again and the kids are both still in school so the days fly by and before you know it, a month has flown by. Keelan has had some trouble with his ears lately. One of his tubes came out and we're not sure if the other one is still there. He has such a bad infection that we can't seem to get rid of (tried several antibiotics now). With the infection we can't see into the ear canal to see if the tube is there or not. His teacher stopped me yesterday and mentioned that he has been talking louder and not hearing well. Neither of those are good signs. We'll see...... School for me is going really well. I am finished with the lab portion and now begins the clinical portion where they let me "try" out my new skills (like injections and catheters) on real people. Be thankful you are not residents of a long-term care facility near me. ;p Addi's school put on a production of the opera "Song of Hiawatha" last night. It was wonderful! They were able to secure a theater at the Mesa Arts Center and they did a great job! They did the production with another local montessorri school. Addi played a bird and a villager. She was also understudy for the starring role. She kicked opera toosh!!! She was awesome!!! Our friends Jackie and her daughter Rory bought tickets and came out to show support for our opera star. They brought her flowers too! Enjoy the short show we created!! We miss you and love you all!!
