Ethan and Audrey have been shipped off to Wisconsin for a few days. Ethan was so happy this morning. He told me that he was so happy that he felt like crying. That’s pretty big for a 6 year old boy. I’m not sure how tonight will go on our end. Isaac talked for a long time before going to bed. Just a short while ago, we heard him crying. Nathan and I went in his room and found several extra stuffed animals in bed with him and he was sad. I really think he misses Ethan. We got him up and snuggled for a while and then changed him into cooler pajamas. We’ll see how the rest of the evening and morning go.
Speaking of morning, I have an appointment with an orthopedic doctor tomorrow. I could use some good news on that front.
Now, to bed with me.


I know when Kailynn is here alone with us, she definitely is more attention seeking. I try to make more time to spend with her, go to a special place with her. I hope it goes well for all of you.
Who’s the Dr. that your seeing?
Kristen, I’m going to see Dr. Jeff Mair from Twin Cities Orthopedics.
He’s good. When my MIL broke her hip a couple of years ago, he’s the surgeon who operated on her. I tried to get in to him for my knee last year, but our schedules didn’t work together.
Well, I had my appointment and he was nice, bu there is nothing else that can be done for me. I need to keep shelling out money for PT and chiro appointments and hope it gets better. Dr. Mair wasn’t the problem. He was telling me the truth and that’s that IT Band issues are complicated and can linger for a while and there isn’t just one thing that works.
You should talk with Jeremy. He was having IT issues a couple of years ago. He had a gait analysis done at Gear West, which showed a discrepancy in leg length. He bought new shoes and lifts for inside the shoes and they helped. FB him and ask him for more details if you’re interested.
Thanks, Kristen. I’ll do that.
