2013 - August 28th

Today Ella had an appointment with the ENT. He wanted to check her ears one more time and make sure he didn't miss anything before sending us her for hearing aids. I know that he is a very thorough doctor and knew that he wouldn't have missed anything but appreciated him looking. He wants her to get a 2nd opinion about the possibility of needing her ear drum patched, though he believe that if it does get patched it will then need a tube put back in it, and wants us to see the doctor in his practice that specializes in that. Just in case. I'm all about 2nd opinions and such but it will be another month before we see that doctor, and of course I have to pull her out of school early. Oh well. Anyhow, we stopped and visited our friend Mary (aka Riley's mom) at her office after Ella's appointment and then came home to unpack 7 suitcases. Yuck. Luckily my friend Dacia came over to help me....thank goodness!!!! After we got done we went outside with the kids to let Ella play. She was in Heaven!!

One of the girls, Shelby (the one next to Ella,) asked if I would take a picture of the "Scooter Gang," lol! So here they are....or at least the ones that were out at that moment.

Then we added a few more, and Ella traded her scooter in for a trailer.

Funny faces!
