Happy Little Camper

Since Ben's cast has been off, he has been a happy little boy. He still isn't rolling much, mostly getting around by edging on his side (he will roll once or twice a day, but goes very slowly and carefully). His mood has been incredible! I have never seen him so happy. He just wants us to tickle him ALL day! I so wish the weather was warmer so I could take him for walks or swinging.
Ben's schedule is going to be packed for the next month or so! I cancelled all appointments he had while his cast was on and now we are paying the price. When you have 19 different specialists you see every 6 months and most of those specialists all order additional tests of some sort, it becomes a full time job. This morning when I counted up all his appointments I started laughing. Before Ben, I didn't even know there WERE 19 different types of medical doctors in the world. Now I know them all by first and last name, their clinic location in the hospital and the name and number of their Nurse Practitioner. If only they gave out frequent patient parking spots in the hospital garage!!! At least it will make the time fly by until spring starts.

And on a side note, is anyone else having trouble with spell check on their blog sites? Mine doesn't work! I click it and it doesn't start the spell check program. Hmm.
Here is our happy little camper helping Grandma Deb and me pick out some cute scrapbooking stuff.

I am always having some kind of trouble on the blog, I do not really use the spell check, but when I try to upload a video it doesnt work.
I know what you mean about the doctors and all the specialists. Eva has had 14 and we are going onto 15. I could become my own info booth at the hospital when people look lost I help them because I know where everything is. Its crazy!!
Good luck with all the appointments and do not forget to breath!!!
Hugs,
Crystal and Eva

So good to see you out and about, Ben!! I can just imagine how happy you are without that cast!

I've never used the spell-check on blogger, so I don't know much about it. Sorry!

Keep moving, Ben--we're glad you're feeling so happy!

Hugs,
Leslie & Katie

I noticed the spell check wasn't working either...hopefully blogger will fix it soon.

I bet tickeling feels soooo good after 5 weeks in a cast!
