Homeschooling a Houseful

Today starts with an 8 am orthodontist appointment for Heide. Her appointment goes well and at home I make a few phone calls and we get going on our regular day.

Today is also volunteer day at the hospital so I make my usual trips taking Heide, and then Joseph and then picking them both up at 5. While they are there, I take Hilarie to the doctor. We start with the pediatrician each spring and then during the summer make our rounds with the allergist and dermatologist. Hilarie had blood work today to test for new allergies. She did so good, not a single tear. She did turn a bit pale afterward so they gave her some juice and crackers and had us hang out for a bit.

Hilarie found some more of her independence today. When we were walking into the office, along the sidewalk she said she didn't need to hold my hand. When I was checking her in she wanted to go look at the fish and took off all by herself. When the nurse called her name she was off and running to follow the nurse. It was very precious. Of course when the lady with the white coat and needles came in, she needed me then.

Simple dinner tonight of mac-n-cheese, some cleaning up of the house, some time outside because the sun came out...finally. Just another simple, but crazy day.
