Settling In

We've been in our new house for 10 days! And D has already asked when we are moving again?! And it was asked in a positive way stating that he was "ready for a new house." We are starting to feel settled other than still not having a mailbox key! We should get that tomorrow. 

Tuesday night after J ate dinner at Mima and Papa's house, he pushed back in his booster seat and sent his barstool flying back. The back of his head hit the marble floor and he seemed pretty 'woozy.' We decided to go areas and take him up to the ER. J cried hard for over an hour which is very unlike him. The doctor wanted a catscan because the fall was 'from higher than standing.' And he also got an x-ray of his neck because he kept grabbing it and crying whenever he moved it much. But at 12:30am we were notified that all tests had come back normal and we were officially discharged. It was a very long night, but I was so thankful that our little J bug was ok! And we were so thankful that D didn't have to come to the ER with us and could just stay at Mima's and Papa's. I don't think Vegas could really of felt like home until we went to the ER!

Then we took the boys in for a pediatrician appointment on Thursday morning and D had to get 2 vaccines for his 4-year-old appointment. He did great! He was the most upset about having his hands held down! He yelped and then laughed with each poke. J didn't get any shots this time. I'm glad we met the doctor and liked him because we will be seeing him a lot more often once the baby is here! 

I also went to a chiropractor this week and it felt great, but she doesn't really use her hands at all just the tool to adjust. She also did some electrode test to my back that was expensive, and I didn't feel was necessary. I'm sure she will just use it to tell me I need to come back in. I really think that going to the chiropractor while I was pregnant with J contributed to my quick and easy labor. So now I am searching for one for the end of this pregnancy!

Thursday and Friday evenings we went swimming at Mima and Papa's! Then Saturday we went to brunch at the Red Rock Casino ($6.99 per person over 2 with member card). They had a wonderful omelette station with very fresh ingredients! Mmmmm and of course lots of pancakes, French toast, waffles, bacon, sausage, fruit, donuts and muffins that the boys loved. Afterwards we made our big Costco run to get lots of frozen meats, berries, etc. 

Today, we made it to church! We tried out Shadow Hills Church on a recommendation. We enjoyed it and I even saw 2 women there from BSF! Afterwards we were planning to go to Trader Joes or to buy J some sandals, but then hubby suggested Container Park. I'm glad he did because it was so fun and just perfect weather. There was an amazing gated play area for the kiddos with a huge treehouse and slides. Then we had lemonade, bought jerky, and had lunch. The nachos and tacos were very fresh and reasonably priced. Now for a big nap for everyone!
