Easton had an ultrasound today to follow-up his kidneys. The blockage has caused the dilation and hydronephrosis to get much worse. It is about twice the size of his normal kidney. The kidney also has debris in it which tells them it isn't draining completely and increases his risk of getting kidney infections. The radiologist came in and said, "So when is Dr. C. going to repair this?" I met with the urologist after and he is also quite concerned. Easton is scheduled for a pyeloplasty on Monday, October 11th. I am so full of emotion today. I am so grateful for doctors that can fix this and help him, but so scared to think about my baby having surgery. I so wish I could take his place!Wednesday, September 22, 2010

Wyatt is the V.I.P. (very important person) in preschool this week. He came home singing, "I'm a B.U.T. in my family."
What a boy! He is always making us laugh!

What's UP with US?
Nothing super exciting has been going on, but hey I am going to wonder why it looks like I sent the kids to school and went into hiding. Not so, my friends, not so...
Easton still has that STINKING rash! Poor little dude. Every time I dress him I pray it has started to disappear, but no such luck. I'll have to take a pic one of these days. He HATES the bottle and binkie. Every shift I work, he makes an appearance (because his babysitters can't stand the screaming. one. more. second!) to eat. He is one stubborn little boy and knows what he likes. He has found his feet and is fascinated by them. He clicks his tongue a lot and giggles. He is a momma's boy, and I hope he never outgrows it.
Wyatt went on his first field trip to the fire station. A mom came up to me and said how cute it was that I let him wear his brother's old preschool shirt to tag along on the field trip. I told her he is actually a preschooler. She couldn't believe it. Neither can I. His favorite thing is snack time and he loves graham crackers--which is groovy, but they are so messy! He had a dentist appointment and the dentist said he has pretty white enamel that is strong and protects well against cavities. I hope he didn't jinx him!
Carson is being so good lately. I can tell he is really trying and is such a great helper. I just have to keep this kid fed and rested and he is a pretty good boy. He loves school and reading. We picked up a bunch of books at the library and they had a chart to color for a prize. He had to read 20 minutes to color in one picture. He got all 20 pictures colored in about a week. I didn't enjoy reading until I got older, so I am excited he is such a good reader and he likes it.
Carson and Wyatt have been playing so well together probably because they aren't together as much. They love playing Mario Cart. Carson loves it because he always wins and Wyatt doesn't realize he just drives in circles most of the time. I hope they will always be friends.
I am working quite a bit. I worked a 12 hour shift today and 12 hours of call and wanted to kill over. That is a LONG shift! I am loving being home with the boys and mostly working when they are sleeping or with their dad. I have re-read the first two books of the Hunger Games, and I am starting the third. I have high hopes for it, so it better not let me down.
Ryan has been busy setting up the DVR to catch all the super cool shows coming this fall about motorcycles, pawn shops, food, and cops. :) Oh and of course, taxi-ing Easton over to me to feed. He has been so great to watch the boys and a lot more appreciative of what I do. We went on a date Saturday night. First one since--uh May! It was pretty fun especially for me since I had two men on the date that can't get enough of me, Ryan and Easton.

Wyatt Starts Preschool!
Wyatt was so excited to start preschool ever since Carson started school. Finally it was his turn! He kept asking me to make sure I was going to leave him there and come back home.
He is so little! I can't believe he is going to preschool.
In front of his Miss Carrie's house.
He got inside and suddenly got very shy!
He sat down at the table and was ready to go! When I asked him how it was he said it was good. He said his friend is Bailey. And he was super excited to be the first one to take the snack bag! My house was very quiet, but Easton seemed to love the quietness and having his mommy to himself!

I'm a little like my mom with the first days of school pictures. He is making friends and liking school and very tired!
Day #2: Red Day
Day #3: Blue Day
Day #4: Yellow Day (There is a yellow number on his shirt.)
Day #5: Green Day
The end of day #5. :)
Day #6: Orange Day
Day #7: Purple Day (Obviously, didn't have a lot of purple in his closet!)
Day #8: Not a color day. He looked so stylish with his layers. I picked him up later that day and he had all the buttons done up to the very top. Why does he do that?!?
