Update

Half a day, a gallon of gas and a copayment later....He's fine!  Apparently these  cysts are nothing to worry about. The doctor hardly looked at him.  Didn't touch him except to measure his head and told me to come back in a year.  Couldn't they have told me this on the phone?

Emergency Room

This boy likes to climb! Can't keep him off of anything!  Yesterday he fell and got a skull fracture and a pretty nasty concusion.  Spent the better part of the night at the emergency room with him. Was he cranky,  he didn't like the braclet they put on him,  he didn't like the room they put us in,  he didn't want the tv on  or for me to sit down.  When he finally did fall asleep the doctors  wanted me to wake him up.  A CT scan later he is diagnosed with a skull fracture with no bleeding.  There is no treatment, so we head home at midnight.  The discharge paper reccomends  bed rest for 24 hours.  Have you ever tried to get a 2 year old to sit still for 24 hours? Though he seems fine today they also diagnosed him with a large arachnoid cyst.  Hopefully it is nothing, but he gets to follow up with a nuerologist in a few weeks.

A Year Older!

With Valentines day comes my birthday!
We had a great time and had some yummy and so cute cake that my friend Julie made for me. 
 On a sad note the day after my Birthday was my niece Katelyns 16th Birthday.  We miss her.

Valentines Day Fun


For Valentines Day  we had to make a box for Casey.  We had just seen the movie Despicable Me so we went with this minion design.  It turned out pretty cute!  It is hard with boys, they don't want the traditional pink box covered in hearts and sparkles.  We have to be a little creative.
 Grandma Horne got all the kids cute Valentines day shirts.  We took thier pictures but they are not very cooperative models.  Cute yes, cooperative NO!
