No Doubt!

Okay so for those of you who know me know I'm a huge No Doubt fan! So after waiting for about 13 years I finally went to see them in concert. You see when I wanted to go see them in High School with some friends my mom wouldn't let me. She now says, "Hmm, I don't know why I didn't let you go". Talk about putting salt in the wound! I've seen Gwen perform twice but this was No Doubt back again and they exceeded my expectations. They were awesome! We had a fabulous time. Ramon got the tickets knowing I wouldn't want to miss it. The Sounds and Paramore opened. Paramore was really good too. So thank you to my thoughtful loving husband for letting me sing along to every song they played in his ear. I had a BLAST!

Peace of Mind

Monday we had Sawyer's appt. at Shriners in L.A. After 3 hours of driving and another 3 hours to see the Dr. we found out we've got a normal little girl! Sawyer's feet are fine and she will grow out of the way she walks. This has been such a relief and has given us much peace of mind. She was so good the whole drive there and back and throughout the wait of our appt. She is so compliant with every Dr. we see. She just lays there and let's them do whatever without any complaint. We feel so truly blessed by God's grace and the beautiful gifts he's given us! Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers!

What a day for "DK"

Dakota's Wednesday started off with trip to Valley Children's Hospital. She had, what we've been praying to be her last Ultrasound and Cystogram procedure. She has Vesicoureteral Reflux. This is when some of her urine goes back up into the ureters and possibly up to the kidneys which can lead to infection. We've been keeping a watch on this for the last 3 yrs. when she had one UTI at about one and a half years old. She did AWESOME to say the least. She had to have a cathedar and was so brave. The Dr's. in their Imaging Department are great! From what they could tell me they didn't see anything leading us to believe she has outgrown it. We'll know for sure at her follow-up appt. in July.
So that leads us to her next "appointment". We told her after her procedure we would go get her ears pierced. She was more than ecstatic! They pierced them and as Ramon would say "she took it like a champ!" She makes sure to remind me when we need to clean them and how many times.
Lastly, that night she had her AWANAS ceremony. She went up and received her certificate and they had a celebration for her Cubbies class.
We are beyond proud of her. She's growing up so fast we can't believe it!
