June Update

keags has found a new love...WATERMELON!
a delightful summer treat!
keags is into everything...gone are the days when I could leave him on the floor and not worry about what he can get into!




melissa and her boys, keags and I spent the afternoon with my grandma...it was so much fun to spend the day with her!


my mom was down close to us for a conference...so we headed up to her hotel and went swimming and ate pizza...it was a blast. Keags loves to swim!

the day after keags came down with a high fever and was miserable...we took him in to see Dr Peterson(best ever) he said it was a virus and to keep him on ibuprofen and Tylenol to keep his fever down and to wait it out(easier said than done) during his office visit, while Dr P was listening to him he heard that keags had an irregular heart rhythm(PVC's)...and sent us to the hospital to get an EKG. Poor little guy had a fever for 5 days, then got a double ear infection!


a couple of days later after primary children's read keags EKG they suggested that he wear a holter monitor for 24hrs.

keags did so well with the monitor...I thought he would be pulling at the wires all night(that was the whole point of the roll of gauze...to keep them in place and disguise them!)
We have an appointment with Pediatric Cardiology on Aug 6th for them to listen to keags heart! hopefully everything will go well!
nich had good Father's day...he got a new street bike!



keags and I are so lucky to have and awesome daddy and husband...we love him lots!


he's not the only one that got a new bike...I got a new bike for my birthday too...a 1969 trail 90! I might be able to keep up with nich(as long as he doesn't go faster than 40...he he!) I'm so excited to get it up and running and also get my motorcycle license...call me crazy but
I LOVE my new yellow bike!!
