Diaperless December

I went into the girls' room during nap time and they were completely naked! No clothes, diaper... they even took off there sheets and mattress protector! What silly girls they are :) What is it with 2 years not wanting to wear clothes, especially when it is so cold... At least they have been dry during nap time, so I just make sure they are covered up with lots of blankets and let them sleep in their birthday suit :)

Maybe with them being naked all the time they may want to start using the potty? Right now it is used for putting little people in. They have never used it for its intended purpose, so I guess until then it can be an extra "toy"

Cardiology Appointment

Today was Trevor's 6 month appointment to check the placement of his amplatzer he had implanted last June. And to see how his heart is doing and if a valve replacement is in the near future. Of course his cardiologist meets locally on Thursdays and that is one of the days that Trev has school. (He only goes twice a week but full days.)

We dropped the girls off with a friend and Trev and I drove to the appt. We were a few minutes late courtesy of all the thick fog :) He has grown 1 lb and 1.5" since July! No wonder his clothes are not fitting as well... He was measured, weighed, had an EKG, echo (he watched Air Bud during the echo) and talked with the nurses and Dr. about being in Kindergarten and playing soccer. They said he looked wonderful! His heart looks great and the amplatzer is right where it should be :) His Right Ventricle is slightly enlarged but not of any concern at the moment. As of now we can wait a few years for his valve replacement. He is now back to yearly appointments. What a great Christmas gift :)

He made sure I took a lot of pictures so we can print them out and make a poster board for his class to see. He was actually excited to see the "Heart Dr." today. We had plenty of time to eat our picnic lunch and get to school in time for the second half of the day. His Dr. also let him listen to his heart. I think that was his favorite part of the whole visit. Or maybe the webkinz he received afterward :)

He still has no restrictions which is great. Today was also his last day of Aspirin! He is now off of all medications again.
