Hell Week but Great News!

This last week was mostly definitely one of those weeks I refer to as a hell week:

Monday I took Kate to see her dentist in Orlando to check her Ortho Tain. We found out that although she is making good progress with the Ortho Tain her palate is so small that her teeth are having trouble coming in so we are going to have to do a palate expander as well :( bummer....

Tuesday I took Kate to the Urologist for a follow up after three months of antibiotics to heal her bladder wall hematoma. Unfortunately her urine is still showing large amounts of blood which suggests that her hematoma has not healed yet. another bummer :(

Wednesday Owen and I spent the morning at church working in the nursery during our Mother's group, got the girls from school, and then headed back to church for evening bible study. Exhausted!

Thursday it was back out to Orlando to check in with Kate's GI doctor and that is where we got our great news!!!

Look closely at her vitals!

Whoo Hoooo!!! Kate finally hit 60 lbs and her BMI is FINALLY at 15!!! We have been striving to get to 15 BMI for over a year now!!! She has been hanging around 14.95 for what seems like forever! She is still skinnier than anyone would like, but she's doing better :) Yay!!!

And then Friday I had to take Owen back to the doctor for a recheck after he was so sick at the beginning of the month and when he woke up he had a runny nose and a cough! The doctor said he once again has fluid on his ears - another cold!!! Bummer!

It was a long week of appointments of overall not fabulous news, but I cannot believe my girl has finally made progress with her weight gain!
