Kennedy and Keeghan had their 5 year and 2 year well child checks set for this morning. We got up and got ready and all was well. We got to the waiting room and Kennedy climbed into my lap and got a little teary. I couldn't figure out what happened. They called us back not long after. The nurse did their weight and height and then did a hearing and vision test on Kennedy. She passed both. :) Once we got back to the room Kennedy started crying again and asked to lie down. We put her up on the table and she ended up falling asleep. She was really pale...
The doctor came in and got Keeghan checked out. He's doing GREAT! He's doing everything he's supposed to be doing and more! He weighs 26 lbs and is 33 inches tall. His ears are nice and clear and his tubes are still in which is GREAT! He got one shot today and I think he's in the clear now until Kindergarten for those.
Miss Kennedy weighs 29 lbs (an all time high for her!) and is 36 inches tall. She was supposed to get her Kindergarten vaccines today but with her sudden lethargic state she got a CBC and blood sugar check instead. Her blood sugar was down to 44 and her CBC showed that she is fighting off a virus of some sort. SO under orders of her endocrinologist, we were off to the lab for a bunch of tests he wanted.
She perked up again by the time we left the lab. I'm not really sure what the deal was this morning. She seems 100% fine now and her blood sugar is back to normal. Hopefully the tests will lead to some answers to the mystery that is Kennedy! In the meantime she managed to get out of her Kindergarten vaccines for now... we'll have to go back for those later. Anyway, that's about it!

It's crazy comparing Kenn and Keeghan's sizes, huh?!? I hope all her blood work comes back normal!
Thanks for good wishes for my trip! Kennedy is one of my little warriors that I'm running for on Sunday!!!
These two little girls of our sure do like to keep us on our toes. Hope she is feeling much better. What is the deal with her low blood sugar? Did you ever get an actual Dx?
Bless her heart! Glad she's perking up!
LOL she's no dummy! She didn't want to get shots mommy :)
Glad the tests turn out good and she perked up after!
Being a first time mom, I'm continually amazed at all of these little, strange viruses that just pass through kids! I mean, we don't seem to get anything, but Samantha goes through stages of lethargy and spots. LOL
I'm glad Kennedy's feeling better, though. Kindergarten--how exciting!!
AH, Emma and Kenn are still neck and neck LOL Emma might be a smidgen taller, I think she's 37" but with her not standing... makes measuring well a bit harder LOL
Glad you were able to get the labs done and that Keeghan is ok!
Huh, that's strange. Well, at least she's feeling better. And good thing it happened at the doctor's office too so you didn't have to make a separate trip there ;).
