I just flipped through the calendar app on my phone (which I LOVE, by the way) at the last few months.

They have been full of appointments!

Today was no exception.

We headed to the local hospital this morning, as Eliza had an appointment for x-rays and also to see the orthopedic doctor.

She has hip dysplasia, and we are keeping a close eye on it.

I am taking pictures of all of our routine doctor appointments, including the buildings and the doctors, so I can make a photo book to show Tate and Eliza where we are going when we prep them for their medical days.

Especially Eliza.

So I took this photo as we drove up to the local hospital!

Here we are waiting for Blake to meet us in the lobby.

One of us might have been drinking coffee, but that one is not pictured here.

We went and checked in for the x-rays, and colored while we waited.

When I pulled up to the hospital, saw the chaos, and remembered that I am now a decaf coffee girl, I decided to use the valet.

The valet met me at my driver’s door, opened it for me, took my name, gave me my ticket, and was asking me if I needed any help with the stroller or the littles.

Tate kept saying, “Mommy, why is that police officer talking to you?!”

I told Tate that it was the valet guy, and he was giving me my ticket so he could take the van.

While I was checking Eliza in and Blake had taken the littles to color, Tate says “Daddy, is the police man going to give you a ticket and take your truck away from you like he did to Mommy and her van?”

I have no clue where he gets this stuff!

Blake did not know that I had used the valet!

Tate had quite a few people laughing, that is for sure!

Blake went with Eliza to x-ray.

She was a little afraid, because her last “pictures” were in an MRI machine which had terrified her.

She kept saying over and over, “Is that going to be really loud?”

Once they assured her it was not, she stood there still, strong, and brave!

We saw the doctor next, and she was so sweet to ask about Eliza’s progress with her sensory challenges. The doctor was also impressed that Eliza easily let her examine her today!

I am happy to report that all is stable for the time being!

We will recheck with new films in six months!

Another appointment checked off our list!

So proud of our strong, brave littles!
