Home, sweet home.....

We've made it home, after a long drive we got in around 5 am on Thursday morning. I was tired, and slept part of the day yesterday, but lastnight was to bed as normal. The kids did great on the trip home, and watched movies most of the way. Dahrran would sleep for a few hours, and then watch movies, while MacKenzie watched movies, and then slept most of the way home. Kaitlynn did wonderful, AFTER we took her helmet off. She wanted nothing to do with it when we were driving.

The appointments went well. When we got to the Hanger to get her helmet, we found out that the UPS guy had just gotten there with the helmets shortly before I arrived. The 8 am appointment was still sitting in the waiting room when I walked in. But they shortly got us all in, and by 11:30 we were out of there and headed back to the motel to get the kids and Jess picked up and packed up.

We then headed to the hospital for Kaitlynn's clinic appointment. That also went well, and fast! Dr. Jimenez said things looked good. You could tell he wasn't happy about the change, but he didn't seem mad at us, more at the Hanger for all the problems we had. He said her helmet looked good, and that it was putting pressure where it should be. He said this helmet should last us for quite a while, and that things were looking good. He did say that her soft spot was closing, but that it was normal because the sides wern't closed, and that's what needed to stay open for her head to keep reshaping! :)

Things are good, and the kids are just getting back into routiene, which has been difficult! Here is a slide show of our trip! Enjoy! :)


UGH, so minor difficulties has made the slide disapear, and of course it wasn't saved yet, so I'll upload them later! :(
