And things are quiet...

Nothing really interesting to report here. Sicknesses have come and gone or at least I think they have. We still have some coughing here and there and a runny nose here and there. Is it just a normal cold? I don't know.

Zachary has had a few bumps and the knot I found tonight has me worried. It is on top of his head near/on his still not fully closed soft spot. I go back and forth on that darn soft spot and just wish it would close already. He goes for his 2 year old check up on the 25th, which is not covered by insurance at all but let's not go there, and I plan on asking her about it again.

Speaking of medical bills, I was turned into the collection agency for $130 from several bills in May. I had been paying $10 a month but was told I had to give them $25 and when I said I couldn't I guess they didn't care. I gave them $10 (along with the other 5 places I gave $10 to) each mont but October. I had 2 RX's to pay for and it ate up some of my medical money. And then November 5th I get the letter. I then decided that I don't give a damn. I will pay all the other bills first and that place (SLU Care) will not get one penny of my money until I am caught up. I will pay the current bills but not that outstanding one.

Tomorrow we see the urologist for a follow up from Z's surgery last year (undescended testicles) to make sure things down there are all still good. He seems to think everything is okay because that sure is his new favorite toy!

We then have PT on Thursday. Zachary has made all sorts of progress. I was so excited to see him bend down and pick up a toy a few weeks ago, rather than dropping to the floor and picking up. Then today he was on the floor and went into the tripod position and stood up! Yay! My big boy is getting so big!

Jonathan is loving his school and making huge progress on his writing skills and drawing pictures. It is wonderful to see him blossom. I have pictures that he drew of our family and I am so impressed w/his blossoming skills that I hung them up on the living room wall. It has taken him forever to enjoy writing and drawing and to see him enjoying it and progressing is amazing! He even writes his name now. I can tell he is all about routine and I think when he finds his groove, he takes off!

I will update more later this week as my baby turns 2 on Saturday.
