appointments

So we made it through the whole month of January with no doctor appointments. Yeah!

Then it hit me, Simon is 18 months on Sunday. Doesn't he have to have a check up? We didn't have an appointment. Oops. I called today and got an appointment with the doctor we want but it is in the afternoon so Isaac can't go. I also scheduled one for Janna at the same time for another issue just to have her looked it. One issue the nurse recommended calling the ENT first because they might need to see her and not the Ped. doctor.

So now Janna has an appointment next week at the ENT ( more money out of Health bucket than Ped doctor). The ear tube is resting in her ear canal. It has been moving back and forth since November. We have been putting sweet oil in to try and loosen the wax and help the tube out. She has been complaining of her ear being closed and hurting. The nurse said if the wax isn't too bad they may be able to vacuum it out. She is not going to like this. She freaks out when we try and look at it with a flashlight. The nurse said the doctor needs to look at it to make sure it isn't infected too.

Isaac had a followup in January for his high blood sugar but couldn't make it due to work transitions. But he forgot when he rescheduled that appointment. So I called and got the date for that as well.

It has been a very productive morning.

As for fun appointments....Isaac and I are going on a couple retreat through the seminary at the end of February. Isaac's parents are going to watch the kids and dog. I am so thankful for that.

Plus I get to scrapbook tonight. I love that!
