Doctor day...

Whew, where has the time gone! First off, let me say that it has been crazy busy at the Mowrer house these last few weeks!! All holds true when they say there are not enough hours in the day. I'll begin with Todd updates. Last wednesday was the visit with the "ear doctor". Dr. Weber is satisfied with Todd's recovery process. I'm not so sure whether it's fortunate or not for Todd to regain the hearing in his ear because now I know he can hear all the "honey do's". Fortunate for me, unfortunate for him I suppose. As for his visit with Dr. Kraus today, all went well! The CT scan came back showing improvement and his serum levels were within normal limits! His next set of labwork and scans will be in December and every three months for a year.

As for the rest of the clan, Brynn will be starting her second year of preschool next week! I still can't believe how much my baby is growing. She never ceases to amaze me with some of her antics! Anyone that knows her, knows just how much energy she has. I wish I could say that it just oozes out of her, however if that were true I would surely pick up some of her reserves. Since she needed an outlet for all that energy and she loves any and all kind of sports, we signed her up for soccer. We had clinics all last week and she showed them what she had to offer, which by the way will not be goalkeeper! During one of the scrimmages, coach put her in goal. Apparently there was not enough action on her end of the field because she began pretending the goal posts were monkey bars. If that weren't enough, she decided it was break time so she ran off the field, grabbed her water bottle and took a seat! We couldn't contain the giggles! She simply stated "Daddy, I needed a water break." That's our B!

Kael is beginning to enter the dreaded "terrible two's". He is a little man with a very large temper. Potty training is his event this fall. There are days when he will just scream "I want my mommy" or "I want my daddy" between sniffles while he sits on the potty. My absolute favorite moment was one evening when I was getting them ready for bed. I sat Kael on the potty beside his big sis, well he couldn't go. So I stood him up to the potty and I told him to try and hit the little hole down in the bowl. He stood there for a time just looking and then ever so innocently he said, "Mommy, it broke. It won't work." I really don't think I made it through the bedtime story without giggling!

As for me, I recently started my new job at the Clinic. After getting moved around in the different departments, unbeknownst to me I'm told, I have finally ended up in Neurology. I'm really looking forward to the challenge! As I opened a new door, I had to close one. I finally shut the door on my family and friends at Buehler's after nearly 11 years of service. So for those of you in my Buehler family that may be reading this- it was really hard to walk out that door for the last time last week.
