We mentioned in the last entry that Alex and Logan were being watched for heart murmurs and that Nick was being looked at for his hip. Alex and Nick went to see the baby cardiologist in Peoria and we are happy to report that the docs don't believe there is anything seriously wrong. After looking at the x-rays, EKGs, blood pressure readings, pulses, and listening to their hearts, the doc said the murmur was "normal" and to check back in another year. The murmur was so faint on Logan that the doctor couldn't hear it. While Alex fussed initially, both he and Logan were generally calm. Logan is also turning out to be quite the little flirt as he flashed his smiles and glances at many of the nurses.
So while we were happy that nothing serious was wrong, the trip to the cardiologists felt like kind of a waste. It took more time to get the boys out of the car and into the right hospital suite than the check up took. Luckily the boys seem to travel well. Put them in the car seats and start the car and they are out. After getting 2.5 hours of sleep on Sunday night due to fussy babies, daddy may just take them down to the car and sleep there next time!
The trip also gave us a chance to stop and see some of Tiffany's co-workers at CAT. The boys had quite a welcoming committee!
Not to be left out, Nick had a sonogram on his hip this morning, which continues to pop. No news on the results as of yet.

good luck with the hip issue, hope that news turns out well. KJ had a heart murmur that we had to have checked out, and monitored, and it was just earlier this year that we went to Peoria too, probably the same ped cardio people! =) when it was first discovered at 1 year, it was watch and see. at 3 years it was, gone, no worries.
does it feel like two months for y'all??
