No more stinky!

Well yesterday we took Angel to his orthopedic appointment, they called us in and straight to take off his cast, he sat on my lap while daddy helped comfort him.They put a towel under his arm and thats when he started crying I think he remembered last time we were there, they did the samething before putting the cast on. I made the mistake of asking alot of questions about the saw getting close to the skin, yup it can and will cut geez can he atleast lie to me?? I got nervous but I held onto my baby boy tight and they started sawing away, he did ok he cried but stopped now and then to watch....the saw made a loud noise it vibrated on his arm and also made it warm. Once it was off they cut the rest away and dad requested to keep it (ewww) I was sooo happy to have that thing off his arm was STINKY!!!!!!!!! but then we found out no cleaning his arm for an hour .

After the cast was removed we were sent for an x-ray to see how his fracture was, he did ok he did fuss but not much, he was just nervous since last time it hurt to stretch his arm. Once that was done we waited in the room which seemed FOREVER but the Dr came in and said "Good news, he doesnt need a cast" Ok well let me rephrase that, he still has a fracture but its surrounded with a callous and you can see the fracture, she brought in a copy of the x-ray, she suggested we keep it off so it can keep healing or we could put it back on, Oni wanted it back on but she did say that if he crawls the pressure will help the bones press together so we agreed to keep it off, I told him to tell her thank you and to blow a kiss but he leaned forward and rested his head on her (his way of hugging) HE NEVER DOES THAT TO ANYONE HE DOESNT KNOW!!

Once we were gone we made a 3week fu appointment to make sure his fracture is gone by then he does have a bump on his arm where the callous is but that should go away in about 6-9months!!! =( Onve in the car he was soooo happy!! clapping and dancing away it was sweet....he crawled at first like he still had his cast on but it back to normal stomping on his arms lol we do need to keep an eye on him to make sure he doesnt reinjure himself.......=) oh and he got a GOOD long bath and I made sure his arm was super clean!!!

thanks for cking on him!

ANGELS UPDATE

Well last week was Angels orthopedic appointment, they did some x-rays and they found out he had a closed fracture of the ulna on his right forearm....he ended up getting a cast..........oh Lord he screamed and cried when they were putting it on him, I think it was more fear than pain (I hope) since getting it done though he's been VERY hyper *please note he is NORMALLY hyper* he became more himself and not so grumpy anymore my poor baby. The first night with it on he wasn't a happy sleeper, he was up some and ended up getting more Motrin for his pain, but once it was the weekend he slept all night again YAY!!!! Since then he's been good about sleeping not waking up at all and still being his silly self. Last night he got a haircut , so I needed to give him a bath, well note to self NO HAIRCUTS WITH A CAST!! It was hard!! we've taken him a bath already but this time it was harder because the hair was on his neck and back which made it hard for me and Oni to take off while being careful with his cast......

Today he has his 15mon physical, I know he's getting shots which I might ask if they can wait until his cast is off, even though its on his legs I still don't want it to be to much for him, then again he's behind a month in his physicals =/ AHHH!!


NEW WORDS
OH!! he says new words, he tells the dogs, "Go....Go....(points to the kitchen when we need to leave lol)
Down.....Down ( to Jedi when he gets on the couch.)
Oni (his daddy's name he started saying it this weekend)
Nikka (well its a friends name but its Nikko lol not sure why he says Nikka lol)
Hermana....(sister)
Jehovah (he says it like hova -in-laws teach him Jehovah es amor...)
If my in-laws ask him where is Jehovah, he looks up =) and when they pray for his food he puts his hands on his head ha-ha so cute

New Discoveries
He has also discovered how to use a pen with a paper =)
He started picking his nose!! ((eww) so when I catch him I say no no nasty! (he shakes his finger saying no no lol)
If I say ewww stinky he does the smelly face and waves his hand lol
Himself =l not happy about that I know its normal and maybe TMI sorry.....but I have to rush when I change him.....


So that's all, Angel has one more week with his cast it will be on only for 2wks, they will re-ck his arm to see if he still needs it on....I PRAY this doesn't traumatize him

Kids updates

Gena's silly sayings



On Saturday I was getting ready to do a wkout, Gena has been asking me if she can do a workout with me so when she saw me ready she got excited and said she was going to join me.....so I popped in the dvd and she was doing pretty good with the warm up, then it started getting more high tempo and quick, for her age she did pretty good!! But then she turned around and said " Mom I'm sweating like a pancake!" hahaha....... she says the darndest things!!! she makes me laugh alot!

Well later on that day, we all had an eye appointment, she had to try on some glasses and what does she say " oh man I look to good in these" ya she has NO issue with her self esteem!!

I was taking off her nail polish on Sunday, and she's had it on since before Valentines........her comment while I'm doing it? Mom I've had this on for a thousand years!!" yes my little Gena is a character!!!



Angels Adventurers


Well its been a while since I've wrote about him. He's everywhere!! he doesn't walk much yet but man this boy can crawl like there's no tomorrow!!
Let me tell you, he needs to be bubble wrapped!

First last Thursday, he was on the couch, he climbs it all the time and we normally keep a good eye on him because we don't want him to fall but we don't want to restrict him to much, well he was on the edge where the hand rest is..............all I heard in the bathroom ( I was getting the tub ready for him) Oni said " Angel NO! ANGEL!!: ((bump....waaaaaaaa)) *sigh* he fell and Oni said he folded!! I held him close and made sure he was ok, he was tired RIGHT after and it scared us so I kept him up and took him a bath, he was up all night crying so I took him to the Dr the following day, he had a rug burn on the back of his head =( ay this boy!!!

The following Monday, well he was wanting to walk , so he walked to Oni and back and forth ALOT he loved hearing us applaud and he was getting very excited.............well he got a tad to excited, he tripped =( he hurt his elbow, it was swollen and bruised! Gena started freaking out, Oni of course was freaking out and crying, I stayed calm I had to...but I was scared, he wouldn't move his arm....we couldn't touch it he would scream so I grabbed him and took him straight to the ER, they did an x-ray and said he was ok.....I don't believe them , we took him to his Dr and she ordered him to see a specialist so I'm taking him on the 8th of March, for now he's finally crawling again but he cant and wont let us bend his arm like before =( I hope he's ok.....he's a very active child and I'm sure we have more visits coming up in our future to his Dr's...................


Akira

She's getting sooooooooooo big =( she's becoming such a beautiful young lady, she has her days and moments she's going to be 12, I sometimes feel like I have no control with her, but again I was once her age. I have done my best to be a good parent.......while we were at the Eye Dr she did try to give me an attitude, I told her that the phone they were playing with is my phone, she said no its mine, I had to remind her that it was MY old phone and that she needs to watch her mood.......regardless if were in public I CANT let her think its ok to talk a certain way, she doesn't do it to make a scene..........she does it without thinking which she does often, its a preteen thing I guess .......I do see me in her ALOT......so that's why I am how I am with her. Oni and her have a good bond, they do argue and she hates him like a normal teen does her dad when she's in trouble, but then she loves him alot when she's behaving and they do things together he always assures her that he loves her and he does things to help her be successful and doesn't want her to fail, due to her having to be shared in custody we need to be harder on her, why? She has different rules and expectations...... we expect alot from her because we know she's capable........ shell be heading to 6 grade camp in a couple of weeks then soon will be Jr High, Im so nervous because shes my baby girl, my first daughter and I have no clue what to expect....with Gena I will be prepared ......Im sure shell do great and will enjoy being parent free, sadly she goes on the week I have her, but I have told her before I rather her go than to be home with me, its a life experience.....I enjoyed my time at camp......I cant wait to hear her stories!!! =)
