Well it has apparently been a few weeks since I last posted, dosen't mean that I forgot about this I just have been very buisy!!!
Lucas had his video confrence and that went well we waited longer then the entire video confrence took!! When the doctor came in it was like maybe a 5 minute appointment, and this is how the rest of the follow up appointments will be unless we will be in the Toronto area!!! I think this is wonderful!!!
Lucas has healed great, just had our 6 week post-op date, the only thing I have to say about his healing is that he had 2 spots on his scar where he would scratch and pick at and they really scabbed up, the first one really bumped up one night and we took him to the emergency room as it was 8pm on a Saturday night on Manitoulin Island, But in and out in about 30 minutes your being a mom not a nurse at this point, is pritty much what I was told, also to keep doing what I was doing. I had also e-mailed and spoke with Dr. Phillip's nurse co-ordinator and they believed that the marks were just Lucas' body rejecting the stiches. The other area I'm thinking of was a big scab, so Chris and I took and sofened the scab and got it off and we were then able to take 2 stiches out of that area and get the rest of the stiches out of his head too, but I also took a picture of this and sent it to Alan and to him it looked the same as the other side as it didn't look infected at all and I was then told that this would probally heal in about a week now!! and well it's healing really fast now, but I still put some vasaline on it once in a while to get the scab to stay soft and help the area heal!! Lucas just don't want us to touch his head anymore at all!!! It's kinda like he says just leave me/it alone, NOW!! but aside from that it looks great you can hardly notice the scar now and its still really fresh I can only imagine it in a year!!!
Lucas and Nicholas have also had their year healty baby doctors visit. Their family doc wants to see pictures of Lucas' before and after!! The pictures are comming Just need a little more time!!
The day before the video confrence Nicholas and Lucas had their first birthday and it was also Thanksgiving day, and one of the nicest day that October had seen!! We had their party outside as it was so nice, too nice to be inside!! They enjoyed their cake and gifts and are having so much fun with their new toys!!
My Dad, sister and her family, and my uncle Trevor came out for the party. I was happy to see them there as it was the first time since my moms funeral that I had seen them, and now I'm looking forward to going to the Island for deer season!!! I have 2 weeks off and I think its gonna be great!!!
I'm not sure what we have planned for Christmas yet but that will have to wait until I get my work schedule, but I'm working extra time to get my over time hours just to get on my feet and pay for christmas and birthdays that are comming soon. But on a brighter note I have started to sell Avon and with the Christmas campaigns I have made enough money to pay for my purchase through them!! Free presents!!! nothing better!!!
Well I think thats it for now. I will try to write again soon but I'm not sure if thoes 2 trouble makers will let me. but will try!!
