What's new with us...


Hello to everyone. Today is November 3rd, the day before the election. I personally can't wait for it to be over! I have my own personal feelings about the whole thing and I am just praying that everything will turn out okay (but I'm not holding my breath!).


As for the kiddos....


Noah is currently attending a small preschool program either once or twice a week. It is held at a local high school and it has really been good for him. Of course, he won't tell me anything that he did that day, but I know that he has a great time!


For those who don't know, Chloe has been diagnosed with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI), or Brittle Bone Disease. The only sign/symptom that she has is blue sclera, but the DNA test came back positive. Kenton and I have had our blood work done to see if either of us carries the mutation, but that is highly unlikely, given the lack of evidence in our past medical histories. We currently have an appointment scheduled with KKI here in Baltimore for the OI Clinic on February 20th. We will be meeting with Dr. Shapiro, an orthopaedist, and a nutritionist all that same day. Hopefully we will get some good information from them that day. We will be taking Chloe to have a few x-rays done prior to the appointment in order to get a baseline look at her bone structure.


Halloween.....

So, Noah and Chloe went to Trunk or Treat at our church. Noah was a monkey (he really didn't need a costume to pull that one off) and Chloe was a butterfly (we thought this was kind of fitting since she literally is our fragile little butterfly!). Chloe got a little bit upset halfway through, but besides that, we had a great time. Noah is, of course, obsessed with candy now!!!! I can't wait till it's all gone! :)
