Hospital Visit

After Lily had her doctors appointment at the beginning of the month both the Doctor, Mike and I were still concerned that Lily isn't walking, self-feeding(the amount she is suppose to be) or speaking at the age level that is she is and that maybe we should run tests to make sure we aren't missing anything that might be wrong. Lily over all is very healthy and happy but her head is on the larger size so they ordered an MRI, yesterday morning we spent the day at the hospital doing just that. 

I know now that I was a nervous wreck for nothing because we actually had a really nice set-up. We had our own room on the pediatrics floor, the nurses were fantastic and Leo had all the toys he could possibly wish for. At first I thought she was going to be under anesthesia for the MRI which was scary, scary and more scary! It turned out they just give her a dose of a medication that makes her very sleepy. WHEW! I was relieved to say the least. I was literally in tears when I thought she was going to have anesthesia. 

She was a HUGE champ with all the needle poking and vital readings. I was very proud with how smiley she stayed through out the morning. 

Now Leo thought this was all about his as he was "roaring" at the nursing staff, having "choc milk" from the cafeteria while watching super reader and playing with toys. Leo had a great day, you would have never known he spent it at the hospital.

Doing his rounds! 

Giving Daddy a check-up

Our brave girl 

As you can see Leo made himself at home

They even gave him bubbles.

We are hoping to get results by the end of the week and I am praying that there is nothing wrong with our Lily and that she is just taking her time on becoming independent.
