Long day of appointments.....










Like all 1 year olds he was sleeping when his party was about to take off but eventually woke to a party just for him.....he got lots of gifts and we all enjoyed cupcakes that I know he would have enjoyed if it was in his diet and he was able to eat......








Well we made it through a day of appointments. Elle had Feed Clinic, Assisted Technology and Orthopedics. Kaden had just Feed Clinic. All of which were at the Rehab Centre for Children. We left at 9:30am and didn't get back home till 4pm.....the results....Kaden is getting too fat and Elle is too skinny!!!! They suggested that we take some fat from Kaden and give it to Elle....haha



Elle also had some anti-tip wheels put on her wheelchair, a new/bigger chair to go with her table for home and we also have a request put in for an Ez Rider (a different kinda stroller type thing) It will be easier for me to take her somewhere in that instead of her wheelchair. Her wheelchair has her oxygen tank attached to it therefore we are unable to fold it up. It is also VERY heavy and to be lifting that thing in and out of the van is too much work.....Over all things were good at the appointments and they both just have to go back for a weight check to make sure one is gaining and the other not gaining!!!! Kaden has another follow up appointment tomorrow morning with Neurology. Elle has a follow up tomorrow with her Pediatrician regarding the E. Coli in her blood......Then......Thursday we have our Home Assessment to see if our house is able to be adapted to some of Elle's needs.....that should be interesting.....we are wanting a lift in the garage for her so that we can get her into her wheelchair from inside on a cold winter day rather than putting her into a freezing cold chair in the garage....Friday is free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So far anyways.....

I love the picture of the two of them. Looks like they may have a silent bond between them. Cute!! We enjoyed spending Kaden's b'day with him. This weekend is your b'day Candace. Guess we will have a cake for you as well. We'll celebrate the two of you as auntie Lori didn't get to Kaden's. So I guess he will have another party.

Love Nana
