Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Last week we went to the dentist on Wednesday and all got great reports!
Then on Thursday Spencer started the morning like this…
and ended it like this!
Braces! They also yanked out a baby tooth that maybe wasn’t quite ready but was good to go on and get out. Ouch! Spencer handled it all like a champ.
He also chose a nice color that not only matched his shirt but his eyes!
Straight teeth coming soon!
Samantha had her first soccer game of the season Saturday. I was at baseball while Robert went to the soccer game. Samantha was being the soccer star she is during the first half and scored two goals. She then got tripped up with another girl in the second half and twisted her foot pretty badly. Robert said he could tell right away it wasn’t good…
It swelled up so they decided to head straight to OS1 to get some x-rays.
It was really swollen by that point.
Thankfully the x-rays showed no bone damage – just soft tissue damage. She strained the tendons and ligaments and it’s going to be sore for a while. They told her to wear a boot for a couple of weeks which means to soccer, no volleyball, no tumble. Boo. She was well taken care of while I was away at baseball all day!
It was still really sore Sunday morning – too sore to walk on. But she was able to hobble around in the boot and put those birthday crutches to good use! She even made it to dance that afternoon to watch…
Bummer but thankful it wasn’t worse.
Spencer had an orthodontist checkup last week and he’ll be getting braces this summer. Thankfully he’ll be a one and one!
Not sure if I reported by Maxwell finished up his Invisalign two months ago. His smile is straight and sparkling!
Say cheese!
From this on January 7….
to this on March 4!
Meniscus fixed followed by 8 weeks of rest and PT and I’m back at it! Still lots of strength to build back up but I’m getting there and happy to be back on the court!
Took the boys for their checkup yesterday! Both are still growing strong!
Maxwell is 100 lbs (16th %) and 5’3 (20th %). Last year he was 5′.5 and 89 lbs. so he grew 2.5 inches and gained 11 lbs.
Spencer is 89 lbs (4oth %) and 5’1 (68th %). Last year Spencer was 4’10 and 83 lbs so he grew 3 inches and gained 6 lbs.
Both had to get their finger pricked and Spencer had to get a shot.
Always thankful for healthy, growing kids!
