Heart Update and More!

We took Brogan to his cardiologist recently for his bi-monthly exam. To start with we were running late, I don't even know how that happened to tell you the truth. I was pretty sure we left on time. I do have my own standard time though so maybe I got them confused. You know my standard time and everyone else's. Anyway, we were running late, and the office is like an hour and a half away, so we knew we were going to be late when we were halfway there but we couldn't do anything about it because we don't have phones right now. So we get to the office, late, and they decide they need to see Brogans insurance cards, which apparently I don't carry with me. They still let us see the doctor, but I still can't believe I didn't have any of his insurance stuff with me. He was well behaved as always, and the doctor even mentioned he was wondering who was making all the noises! Brogan loves to hear his own voice I think, and it is the cutest thing! Finally the doctor goes to look at his heart and puts that jelly goop on his chest. He tolerated it well at first but by the end got a little antsy!

So we are being scheduled for a heart catheter to see what his numbers are, and to hopefully balloon a piece to not have to open his chest back up. We have to go back down to Ann Arbor for the procedure.  I think it is probably going to be in a couple of months or so, and meanwhile he is terrorizing our apartment!

Did I mention he can walk now? Yeah, he can walk now! He walks everywhere! Our apartment looks funny because we have different sections. We have the T.V. and all the movies sectioned off behind the ottoman, the pack and play is blocking the hallway, and some totes have come in handy at the entrance to the kitchen. We are finding as well as you think you may have him blocked in, there is always a way around it. The other day I was knitting as he played and I looked up to him standing by the totes, look down, do a couple stitches, look up and he is gone. GONE! I was running from room to room till I found him in front of his dresser helping to reorganize his clothes. They looked better on the floor then they did in the drawer! He can sure move when he wants to.

His favorite thing to do is to walk down the hall to the bathroom when he gets his bath. LOVES it! He also likes it when dad spins in a circle, and tries to imitate him. He only falls down every now and again. Not to often really. He does make himself a little bit dizzy I think. Another of his favorite past times, reorganizing the living room. More specifically his toy box and book shelf. The toys look better outside of the toy box and the books look better on the floor. When he goes to bed the cleaning fairy stops by, most of the time. Then it's a clean slate for him to work with in the morning.
