Children's Hospital Trip

We're loving the $ 50 Courtyard Marriott and pool we booked off of priceline.com.  The kids were ready to go swimming before breakfast this morning and they had a good swim last evening!

The first Children's Hospital visit yesterday was surprising. Missy's good ear is having some trouble and her bad ear is doing better.  This ear doc has followed Missy pretty much since birth. He saw a difference in her. He thought she still had a blank look - but hey, she was uncomfortable and out of her element, but in her defense she was NOT hanging her tongue out- which is how she used to express her shyness and uncomfortableness. He wanted to know if I understood where she had come from. All her visits in the past were very, very memorable. I keep hearing that from different doctors. He said that at one point they had to make the rule that the family could only call the hospital once a week and not several times a day.

Regardless of what the hearing tests say, I know Missy can hear 95% better than she used to. It's obvious. It goes along with the theory I have about her little brain functioning at a greater capacity.

Today - after THE swim - we head to Children's Dental clinic for some major teeth repairs.

Since we had time to spare yesterday we used our membership and visited the Aquarium. This is the place we first took the twins when we met them in Feb. Buster is no longer afraid of the place. He actually enjoyed it a lot. Unfortunately, the much anticipated octopus was asleep and very boring.
