Today Madi had her first wheelchair accident. She was trying to get into the grass/sand area at my parent's house and tipped forward when she was coming off the sidewalk. Thankfully she was strapped in, but it did scare her a lot. She got a little egg knot and a little scratch on her head :(. Poor baby. She, of course, needed a few mommy kisses and hugs, but then felt as good as new. She got back up, too, and didn't let her fall keep her from trying again! Such a little fighter she is!
Tomorrow Madi has an appointment to get a shunt series and a cat scan to see how her shunt is doing. Afterwards she will see her neurosurgeon, Dr. Moss. It's about a 40 minute drive, which isn't too big of a deal, but I will be doing it alone with a girl who hates the car, so wish us luck! I will be packing snacks and signing times dvds for sure!! Please pray her shunt is looking well and doing it's job. Madi hasn't been sleeping well at night lately, and of course, I always worry. She also tells me her head hurts. Her fontanell feels fine, though. She could be teething, and also has a small cold, so that could be why too. In all fairness, she also says her arm, teeth, stomach, and anything else she knows how to name hurts, so it might be nothing. Anyhow, please keep my little gal in your prayers and I'll update when I can. Thanks!

Caleb has had some tumbles in his chair...he's fallen backwards once and fallen forward on his face twice! He's terrible about looking where he is going and watching out for curbs...gives me a heart attack! Good luck with the appointment...keep us posted.
