Hello to All - and yes we made it home! The day wasn't so bad, long but Addi always keeps us entertained. Today she was obsessed with making puzzles which is nice, hard to move from place to place, but nice because the 3 year old is STILL! Amazing really when you have a girl that runs and tries to run faster. I really need to get her into some soccer, heck track if I could. Anyway...
Bo is officially tube free. It was a little funny when we went to see Dr. Marriquin (spelling on that one) He always says "Hey Buddy" and then get to business asking questions. Halfway through the questions he looks at Bo and says, you are not going to answer these questions honestly are you, you are just going to tell me what I want to hear so you can get that tube out before Thanksgiving. Smart Man...Bo did answer honestly and tube came out. Mind you most people I know they schedule for them to go to radiology and have this "procedure" to have it out. I turned my head to pick up a puzzle piece for Addi and next thing I know the nice Dr. is going to the trash can with the tube. I looked at Bo and he was a little shocked. I guess one good yank is all it takes. I told him Addi has been doing that for weeks, thank God she didn't pull to hard.
Then to Dr. Whitsell, the vocal cord doctor, who is apparently famous. Chris Brown and other famous musicians have visited his office. (Has anyone heard Bo sing lately, we are going for more miracles now...jusk kidding he does a great "What's gonna work, Team Work" with Addi - Wonder Pets for those not around children) Bo's vocal cords are doing well. Need to drink more water and keep them moist and that will help with some of the raspyness.
Back to Dr. Snyder, whom Addi is also obsessed with because she has a baby in her belly. She is truly about to pop. Bo's breathing tests are better, we are coming down on some medicines and he is doing well. She did warn us about the winter colds. So again if you even think you are coming down with something, please keep at least a 5 foot distance from our family. We greatly appreciate it and promise to hug you when you are feeling better.
Then back home...home sweet home.
We did miss all our friends, Joe and Marilyn, Sue and Tom and Don and Brenda. I guess they were off living life as they should be. We will see them all on the 18th of December when we come back.
Love to All
Christi, Bo and Addi
