Always a good time when Babci and Pepere come to visit (that's my mom and dad by the way). They flew in on Friday and we've been pretty busy since then. Saturday we all spent the day up in Leavenworth, WA. It was a fairly long day with having to sit in a car quite a bit, but we had fun. It's like a little German town, with lots to explore. We had a great lunch of German food and then did some shopping in all the cute little shops.

What the heck is this Mommy?
Sunday we enjoyed some time at the park. The weather took a beautiful turn for the better for a few days- sunny and warm, not hot. Matthew enjoyed swinging and playing with Babci and Pepere.
Worn out from playing hard
Monday was a trip to Portland, where Matthew had his appointment with the pediatric urologist. Not too surprisingly, he will be needing surgery to pull his testicle down to where it's supposed to be. The doctor feels pretty strongly that it if was going to come down, it would have by 6 months. Matthew's is still quite high, but can at least be felt on exam (apparently sometimes they're so high they need to ultrasound to find out if it's even there at all). The surgery is a quick procedure done in the same-day surgical center. They wanted us to schedule it Monday, but I explained Mike's upcoming surgery and how we don't know when or where that is happening, and they were fine with us waiting a few months. So, we'll get Mike all fixed up, and then we'll get Matthew all fixed up, and then this mama will need a drink.

Hopefully he'll grow enough to fit into them- we decided to buy mostly 18 months. "Little nugget", as I like to call him, only weighed in at 20 lbs., 4 oz. on Monday.
