ENT & Urology Visit

Last Wednesday Trent's Feb. 24th ENT appointment was moved up to Friday when I called to make an appointment for his ears because he's been complaining of pain again.  He had just finished a round of antibiotics last week but obviously he still has fluid in his ears. At the visit it was decided not to replace Trent's PE tubes and to see if we can get through the ear trouble with OTC medications instead. 

And yesterday the urology clinic called and changed Trent's March 2nd appointment to today.   We got good news that Trent will not need surgery for at least four more years.  That was a relief.  No surgery for the year it looks like :)

4th Birthday Celebration

Today we celebrated Trent's 4th birthday at McDonald's.  It turned out pretty nice.  It was much smaller than previous parties but it was still very nice.  I was worried that it wouldn't turn out because there were lots of problems even though I began planning early.  Even the cake (pull-apart cupcake cake) and the balloons were both late from WalMart.  So we ended up getting to the party right at the starting time.  We were supposed to get there 30 min early so we could eat and play some before cake and presents.  That didn't happen.  Then it took what seemed FOREVER for our food and drink order to be taken and even longer for them to be served.  Still the few guests that came all had a good time chattting and playing with the Bob The Builder light sticks that I bought on eBay.   Trent just loves Bob The Builder so that was the theme.  He had a all kinds of party supplies, a cake topper, a 42" balloon, t-shir, athletic shoes and more all in Bob The Builder theme.  Trent loved it!
