Busy! Busy!

Summer time is here and you know what that means...corn on the cob!!!

Corn on the cob is Lily's new favorite food.  She had two entire ears and cried when we didn't have anymore to give her.  Chris and I felt so bad.

This week is extremely busy us.  On Monday Raymond had an appointment at the ENT clinic in Hershey.  We had to get up early to go because we were the first appointment of the day.  Miss Lily fell back asleep in the car. 

Notice anything funny in this picture?

We were the only people in the reception area when we arrived.  This is what Raymond did while we waited...

Every time a nurse or doctor was in the hallway, Raymond tried to show them his umbrella. Let me be more specific, female nurses or doctors only.

When we were called back the first thing Raymond had to have done was a hearing test. He was very cooperative. The doctor's assistant sat in the room with us while the test was being preformed and Raymond kept hugging her. It was so funny!

I was then told by another doctor that Raymond hearing is getting worse. She stated that he has moderate to severe hearing loss in both ears. She gave us a prescription and instructed us to put 5 drops in both of Raymond's ears twice a day and come back to see her in 2 months. At that point, they will determine whether or not Raymond needs to have another procedure done to his ears. What concerns her is that she sees no wax in Raymond's ears. If he had wax build up, that would probably explain the continued hearing loss. If there isn't any improvement with the drops, he will need to be fitted for hearing aids immediately.  This isn't the first time we've been told Raymond will need them.

Tuesday, along with two therapy sessions, we had to go get my front tires changed.  There is a train table at CJ's which is helpful.

Raymond played with the train table for awhile and then decided it would be fun to run around like a crazy man.  He laughed and laughed for over an hour and a half.  The guys who work there thought he was funny (thankfully).  They even played a little with him.  Raymond gave the younger guy a big hug around the legs.  He's such a sweet boy!  When I was paying for everything, the older man behind the counter told me he thought I was a good mom : )  That was nice of him to say.

 
After we got home, I put in Elmo in Grouchland for Raymond.

This was the first time he's ever seen it.  He sure does love "Mo"!

Today we have therapy, errands and I'm going to be meeting a friend later this evening.  Tomorrow I have to take my neighbor for a colonoscopy and Isabella has a dentist appointment.  Raymond also has therapy in the morning.  Raymond has therapy again on Friday and I have to go to work.  This week is zipping by!

Until Next Time!

Lots of Love,
