Brailee's check up

Oh what a summer it has been. I took Brailee in for her 2 year check up today and I feel overwhelmed I've been given tons of information I am trying to register about stuff I know nothing about. She is healthy and I thank the lord for that she is growing and is in the 5% of her height and weight she is very petite. On the other hand the bad news. It was a normal check up but like in the past I questioned her droopy eye that all of us have thought was normal, the Dr.'s kept telling me it was cuz she favored that side when she was born and laid on that side when she slept. Today they actually did something about it and we found out Brailee can not see out of her left eye. So they sent us to a opthamologist or however you spell it and they dialated her eyes and checked them out and he said sure enough she can not see anything other than a blurr out of it, if she could see that right now. Her right eye is very far sided he said so as of right now we had her fitted for glasses which will be very thick and funny looking im sure, and later they will have to patch her right eye to get the left eye to start working. He said we were "very" lucky to found it now if she would of been older like 8 or so before they found it she very well would never have been able to see out of the left eye cuz I guess the brain shuts down and quits working. The Dr. Is very positive that this will correct itself although she will have to wear glasses the rest of her life or contacts.
Her pediatrician was concerned about a possible tumor behind the eye although he didn't want me to get upset in case it was nothing (which you don't say to me) so we talked about it and I will take her in to get a second opinion just to make sure. I wonder her attitude and crying and screaming could steam from not feeling good they said possible but they can't be sure. They did say her right I is under a lot of stress cuz its doing all the work. So anyway that is all I know as of right now I will keep everyone posted and hope for the best.
P.S. I would post pictures from my wonderful trip down south but Robert has taken my camera to a scout overnighter so when they get home ill put pictures on my blog.

WASATCH BACK RACE (RAGNAR)

We left at 4:30 A.M. to be up in Logan at 6:00 it was stinking cold but I do have to say the weather turned out mighty nice for us the two days we ran.

University track field. Our 6 starters.


Angie taking off at the start line.





Becky coming down over Avon pass boy im glad I didn't run these two legs it was a dusty mess.







Avon pass looking down into Huntsville.

Coming down over Avon pass into Huntsville.
This was one of the worst parts sitting in line crawling up over Trappers loop Friday afternoon.



This was on the mountain side coming out of Francis down into Heber it looks like heart carved into the mountain.






THE FINISH LINE!!!! 30 hours 22 min and 11 sec. Pretty good for some rookies I'd say.


We all made it safe and sound and no one died!!! Although we could hardly walk and we are dragging from lack of sleep.










Our team!!


We placed 210 our of 823

Brailee's Birthday

My Baby turned 2 today boy it has gone fast. This special child that I LOVE so much is our last and she has the spitting personality to remind me how much we prayed for her and wanted her here. She has soooooo much energy she never stops! Litterally she goes and goes and goes she is into everything, destroy's everything and is determined to get what she wants. Needless to say she makes me TIRED.

We decide to go to the park for her Birthday since she loves to swing and go on slides. That is where she spent most of her time, she didn't care about the presents or the cake.

She didn't know what to think when we started singing to her.

She doesn't sit still long enough to watch t.v. or do anything but she will watch one episode of barney where they sing and dance (she loves music), so it is her barney and she kept telling us.


My Barney!!


Brailee's Birthday Cont....

Brailee LOVES to swing and go on slides so we got her a swing for her Birthday.
Not sure who was enjoying this more Brayden and Brecken or Brailee.




At the park opening presents.... Well we tried to open presents.









Brailee kept getting up and walking away to go over and play on the toys. She could of cared less about opening the packages.

This is the Croyden Bridge where the Weber River is coming over it is so full.





We took the kids to lagoon. Brailee wanted to be on all the rides the kids went on so we let her go on a few. She thought it was so much fun she wouldn't stay in the stroller.
