Busy Days


Have been very busy with Sheena appointments lately. Unbelievably so. This week alone we've had appointments for; Speech, Physio, Peadiatrition, and visiting an EI centre where we're planning on sending Sheena next year. Tommorow is a free day on the calendar as far as Sheena is concerned - YEA! Next week we've only got a test for Sheena at the Royal Children's Hospital, and a physio appointment. Thats a quiet week.

Somehow we are still managing quite well to have a good social life around all of this EI and medical stuff. That would be a lot tougher to keep up if we had more kids.

The appointment with the new Pead went very well. He's been around for a long time, and has a strong background in infant irritability. He's ordered a couple more tests along with the sight, hearing and heart assessments that she already has booked. I'd hate to be a Peadiatrition. Having to deal with crying kids and their parents. It must be emotionally very taxing.

I hope going back to work will be OK. Only planning 15 hrs per week, but that is a lot when all this other stuff is going on.

Appointments can become a full time job trying to plan everything activities around them. Sometimes I just want to pull my hair out! Good luck!!

She is so cute, It looks like you are carrying a dollbaby in that picture.

All the Appointments around that age are overwhelming, but soon there won't be so many. Last time Shaylee went in for her 2 yr. appointment they didn't need to see her again until she turned 3.

A 1 year break would be fantastic. That is the result you want to hear for sure.
