This is a potpourri post, catching up on the rest of August and September.

August 25th-
Bill took Trevor on a little road trip to explore the Lava River Cave for the first time. (No pics!) He loved exploring. Bill did take a few pictures in the little micro church building outside of Flagstaff.

They also relocated a Travel Bug that we found at the Paleo Dig Site to a geocache near the Lava Cave.

August 28th –

Brendan gets an ultrasound of his liver. The doctors are concerned about his liver being affected by his new circulation pattern created by his last surgery and they want to follow him closely.

I take Trevor for a little Mommy-Trevor date time. We “split” an oreo milkshake.

Brendan gets a few new t-shirts

September 7th-

Another doctor visit, this time with an endocrinologist. After doing a bunch of blood work to check on his liver, and other possible reasons for his little tummy to be bloated, the doctors discovered that Brendan has hypothyroidism! The checkup went fine, and he started taking levothyroxine, just like me. He will have to have his blood checked regularly now.

September 8th-
Bill takes the boys for a trip back to the Hall of Flame Museum to climb on the fire truck

September 19th-
Boys go to the dentist. Brendan was a really good boy and sat for getting xrays. He will need to have a deep cleaning of his teeth under anesthesia. One more thing to schedule.

Silly sunglasses to wear while they shine a light on his face.

September 21st-
Yet another doctor appointment. This time to the GI for a general checkup and nutrition consultation.

September 23rd-
We went to Odysea Aquarium again. It wouldn’t be so picture worthy except that the giant octopus was being very active!

Silly Brendan and sharks

After the aquarium, we checked out a place downtown for lunch because they had tire swings in the restaurant. The swings were just at the bar. Brendan loved the pizza here!
