Lots of Appointments

Lots of Appointments

This morning Blanca came at 7:15am so I could get to my 8:00am gastroenterologist appointment. I have been having some stomach issues for a while. I had an abdominal ultrasound and cat scan in the last few months and both were clear. Since I want to be extra cautious about any little thing, I wanted it checked out. I could just be IBS stuff or maybe an ulcer. The doctor wants to do an endoscopy, so I have one scheduled for next Thursday.

After the appointment I came home for a little bit and then went to the bone density scan. That test was really easy compared to all the tests I have had lately. I just had to lay on a table for a few minutes while they took a few x-rays.

Then, I went to see the new acupuncturist. I had a hard time understanding him. He’s from China and has a thick accent. I liked him and the office. I felt way more comfortable there than the other place. This acupuncture seemed more relaxing. I’ll go back again next week.

On the way home I stopped at Target.

When I got home it was about 3:15pm and both boys were napping.

Susan from the Mom’s club ordered food for us from Mangieri’s for dinner.

After dinner Evan and Noah played in the house in their new firefighter rain boots that I got them at Target. They also ate pretzels out of their new Toy Story and Incredibles snack containers.

We just put the boys to bed. I’m expecting this to be like almost every night. Noah usually goes to sleep right away and Evan either keeps yelling for us requesting something or coming downstairs until we go upstairs to bed.

Freezing

So, this morning it was in the 60s when I dropped of Evan, and when I went to pick him up from school a few hours later it was already in the 40s. Now, at almost 9pm it’s 32 degrees outside.

Yenis told me when she brought Kevin in the classroom this morning Evan ran up to them and said he was a firefighter. He had a hat on and was pretending to be a firefighter. When I picked Evan up he was a doctor. He came up to me with a thermometer and wanted to check my ear.

While Evan was at school Noah took a short morning nap and cleaned upstairs. We ate lunch and that was pretty much the end of the morning. Then, it was time to pick up Evan.

Blanca came at 3:00. I was supposed to tutor until 7:30 tonight, but ended up just going until 6:30. One of my students didn’t have homework and therefore, didn’t need my help. That was good since I was worried about driving home in bad weather. I wanted to get home before it got below freezing.

For dinner we had pasta and green beans. Evan didn’t eat much for dinner. All he ate was 2 cups of applesauce. Noah ate well though. He had cereal mixed with applesauce, baby food veggies, regular veggies, hot dog, a little bit of pasta, and cheese.

They are saying we may get some sleet and ice tonight. We’ll see what happens.
