More Doctor's Appointments

Dear Vivian:
So after being at the doctors Friday the first for Teagan having RSV then the following Wednesday for his ear infection, Friday the 8th I ended back up there with you.
When I was changing you that morning I found bruises up your lower spine, like right on the spine. It really worried me because this was he second time I saw bruising there. The first time was a few weeks before this and it was just one. I just brushed it off and watched it and it went away. So I dropped you and Teagan off to aunt Erin like normal and figured your appointment was in 2 weeks I'd just take a picture and show your dr then. But then I talked to grandma about it and she was really concerned and thought maybe I should call in and see what a nurse said. So I did and they wanted you to come in. Luckily grandpa doesn't work on Fridays so he picked you up and brought you to my work and I took you in. They sent us for blood work. They were testing for anemia, leukemia and other platelet disorders. The dr wanted us to stay in town until the bloodwork came back in case you needed to be admitted to the hospital. I was a wreck. Daddy met us at the hospital and took you home anyway. I figured in the event that we did need to go to the hospital I'd still need to go home and pack a bag. Finally after about 2 of the longest hours of my life, they finally called. Everything was normal. Phew thank God.
Then...this past Wednesday we ended up back at the stupid doctors because you had a nasty cough all weekend and were super rattly sounding and it was stressing me out because I know rsv can cause bronchitis. So I took you in and they just said you had a viral cold. Good news.
It's just been nutso around here.
It did get warm for like a day or 2 a couple weeks ago. I took a walk with your brother and it was wonderful. Leslie is supposed to be giving me her double jogging stroller. Which I'm really excited about because then I can take you both for walks. But we just got a bunch more snow last week so we won't be walking anytime soon. It's so annoying.
If I was pregnant right now, it would be 80 already. I swear the spring/summers are only nice when I'm pregnant it seems.
You are a jumping queen. You just want to jump jump jump all the time. We borrowed nana's jumpy thing because Callie borrowed ours for Eve and I haven't gone to get it back yet. You love it though. You fell asleep at daycare the other day in it.
Well, we've been at gma's all afternoon for an early Easter celebration so I haven't gotten anything done for the week. So I'm off to pack you and your brother's bags up.
I love you to the moon and back baby girl.
Love,
Mommy
