Gracie is officially walking!

Gracie had her shot's yesterday and her 1 year check up she weighed 20 pounds 13 ounces and is 28 inches long! She had 2 ear infections, an eye infection, and was still wheezing some so we left with a 6 week steroid, eye medicine and an antibiotic, she has seemed pretty happy so I guess it was a good thing we went there, we have decided she has may have asthma Dr. Graham said if a baby wheezes more then twice a year then he suspects asthma he will check her in 6 weeks! She only wheezes at times so I am a little suspicious of the asthma, she is growing up to quick!

wHAT'S nEXT for BRADEN!

The Dr. called today and the tests came back sti;; high blood pressure so we are off to Twin Falls Monday morning for a heart echo (heart ultrasound, he is going to send us to a specialist after this, he wanted to have this done before so he knew all the information, the heart is the next spot to look after the kidneys and blood are good, so here we go! He seems to be no different, I am very thankful for healthy kids that is for sure!

High Blood Pressure!


When Braden got had kindergarten shots in August Dr. Graham checked his blood pressure and it was high so the nurse checked it, they drew blood, took urine, sent me to the infusion place to have the machine check it, by the time we were done with all that he had figured his blood and urine was okay to we decided to watch it and check in a few months, I had Braden in 2 weeks ago to get his cough checked out, he told me to just give him cough meds he is fine but let's check his blood pressure again this time it was higher then in August, crazy I know a 5 year old with high blood pressure, the Dr. decided to have an ultrasound done on his kidneys to check them he thought maybe one was bigger then the other so last Wednesday we went and got an ultrasound the Dr called Thursday to tell me his kidneys are fine his blood flow is good, what a relief to that but still no reason for the high blood pressure so he told me to come in today and have it checked again it was higher today then 2 weeks ago so he sent me back to the infusion center to have the machine check it still high, your kidding me I thought! So Dr. Graham is going to call me tomorrow and we are going to go see a specialist to figure it out! What a crazy deal.

Here is my birthday loot! I got lot's of really fun stuff! Thanks to everyone!

We celebrated Gracie's 1st birthday today, I still can not believe she is one years old. She woke up and loved the balloons and decorations we put up, she loved having family over for a party, especially when we all got around her to sing Happy Birthday, she smiled and kept waving at everyone it was so cute! We had pizza for dinner she loves pizza crust, she has 2 teeth on the bottom and just got one on top that we can see peeking thru. She did not want to touch her cake I was shocked it got on her fingers and she started crying. She is walking really good now, so she wanted to get up and walk every chance she could tonight. It was a fun night for all of us, my Mom got really sick yesterday and my Dad is on a Harley trip so they were not here, Gracie hopes Grandma feels better soon.
Happy Birthday little Gracie. We love you.

1 year ago tonight I was getting ready to go to the hospital to be induced to have my little Gracie, I can not believe it has been a year since she was born. We took Braden and Maylee to my Mom's house, my sister Jocelyn watched them for us.

My sister Trish needed her hair done this week so I told her to come out Monday night and we will do it at my house, she called back to tell me Jackson would make dinner for us we had a great time, he made a yummy dinner of steak, grilled potaotes, homemade coleslaw, pita bread, and strawberry shortcake, man he can cook like no other! Jeff got home at 11:00pm so he missed the dinner and a weave but he was really excited when he saw the good dinner we saved for him! Thanks for coming over.
