Doctor Week

I guess this week is Doctor week with all the time we are spending there lately. Yesterday I took Cooper to a follow up with his pediatrician. His oxygen levels are fine, he seems to be over the croup and now just has regular cold-like congestion. He had complained on Sunday that his ears hurt, but his tubes are still in place, no infection, no swelling. Despite an ongoing battle of wills on the napping situation (he thinks he doesn't need one, I disagree) he's doing well and recovering just fine. And, should there be a next time, I'll remember that we have a nebulizer here so he can have a breathing treatment at home first.

On the way home from the pediatrician I stopped by the hospital to pick up my MRI scans to bring with me tomorrow to my doctor's appointment. The scans are all on a CD, so I looked at the pictures of my brain last night. It was weird to see all of that, and I had no idea about any of the specifics of what was on the pictures other than the obvious brain, eyes, etc. Good thing the group I see tomorrow are experts.

In non-doctor news, over the weekend we had friends over for the Super Bowl and we had a great time. We decided on Saturday to make it a Mexican themed dinner so I went crazy with the Pioneer Woman's recipes and made Pico de Gallo and Guacamole and Simple Perfect Enchiladas. Not so simple, but totally awesome. Our friends brought bean dip and margaritas- it was perfect and we had so much fun.
