Who would have ever thought in a million years that I would have daughters that LOVED Cheerleading???? Well, not only do I have 1 daughter who loves it, but I have 2, YES, 2 daughters who absolutely LOVE it. *sigh* What has this world come to???? We decided to let both of our daughters do the cheer camp this week and they have had a blast. My younger daughter has really taken to it and the cheerleaders adore her. She has really behaved herself ( I expected them to kick her out) but she has gotten stars for being good and doing the kicks, jumps, dances that she is supposed to. My older daugher has also gotten the stars for doing what she is supposed to and has really enjoyed it. Her headaches are preventing her from having complete fun, but I think overall she is enjoying herself. Today is the last day and they are having a pizza party and will do a performance for us and then something during the school year they will get to perform at one of the Varsity football games. Which they are extremely happy about.
My older daughter went to the pediatric neurologist on Tuesday and she has what is called Chronic daily headaches that are also Migraine(ish) in pain. She will have an MRI done but the doctor does not think that we will find anything. Said that she is just a serious child and that sometimes these things pop up. I am not completely satisfied with the answer since truly she is not all that serious. She gets serious around doctors and it is because of everything she has been through. She gets rather quiet and does not say much. At home she is a regular kid with lots of friends and is just plain happy. He is putting her on a medicine that will take a few weeks to take effect but is hoping that it will help with her headaches. It could be a life long drug but we are hoping that it is not. We will see what the MRI shows and then we will figure out what to do from there. I am just hoping that whatever it is we can get it figured out and taken care of so she is not suffering daily from these headaches.
Saturday we are going to have a birthday party for our littlest one. He is really excited that he gets to celebrate again. This time it will be with our family and friends. That is about all that is going on around here. My oldest is having a blast with his friends this summer and has been enjoying earning money around the neighborhood. He has managed to do quite a bit of stuff and really enjoys it.
I will prolly post more pictures of the girls since they are going to perform today. Hoping that the pictures turn out better than the ones I have taken so far. The gym is a really bad place to take pictures and they do not come out at all.
