Spring Time

Happy almost spring!!

I am patiently waiting for it to warm up where we can go outside without coats and mittens! Its been awhile and I wanted to update on a few things going on in the world of Westin!  Its so hard to believe that he turned 5 in January and will finish preschool in May.  We are currently in the process of picking where he will attend kindergarten.  My baby is growing up way to fast! Time just needs to slow down a little....

In two weeks Westin will have surgery # 6.  This one however has nothing to do with his Spina Bifida but his teeth.  He clearly inherited that quality from me .. yikes!!  He needs to have 4 cavities fixed and 2 "baby root canals".  I am not looking forward to this, however they need to get fixed.

We go back to the cities for SB clinic in May.  We will have a busy week!  We have SB Clinic on Tuesday, he will also have a renal ultrasound and meet with his team of Dr's.  Wednesday we have a seating evaluation appointment.  To discuss getting Westin a wheelchair for long distance, so he doesn't waste his energy just walking form point A to point B.  This is a concern for me is the new elementary school because it is so large.  This would also be helpful when at the zoo or the mall.  On Thursday we have an all day appointment with pediatric neuropsychology.  So will have a really busy week, but we are hoping to turn it into a fun camping trip.  There is a KOA campground close to where we normally stay.  It will be nice to not have to eat out for every meal especially with the picky little eater that we have!  Lots of updates to come following all of our appointments!
