APRIL 2016
Brody turned 5 years old. Since him and his brother have birthdays 6 days apart we do a consolidated family party and then they each get their own friends birthday party. This year Brody decided to have his birthday bash at Dinobouncers. He had a fantastic time.
MAY 2016
Finally got to go for his checkup. The doctor was VERY happy that we took him to Dinobouncers when he had his heart monitor on as it showed what happens to his heart when he is active. As soon as he becomes active his heart goes into regular rhythm...this is AWESOME news as if it wasn't then we would have for sure been headed to Vancouver for a pacemaker. His heart still goes into Junctional rhythm when he isn't doing anything but they are VERY happy that it kicks in when it should so we are all cleared for a year now. He grew to 109.8cm and weighs around 43 lbs which is shocking since he only eats pancakes, waffles and kraft dinner...... This trip was also the first time he laid all by himself to get his Echo done. He is getting so big and brave...
Also Brody had his last day of preschool...he loved school and can't wait to start Kindergarten.
So wondering what a 5 year old with a CHD does...well anything a normal kid does. He loves Ball Hockey, playing outside, listening to music (his favorites are Sugar and I Don't Care), and just being goofy. We also got to enjoy a day on Mosaic stadium. It was a good memory as it is the last season this field is open til the new stadium opens next year. It was extra special as he got to hang out with two of his favorite people Uncle Kenny and Justin.
BRODY says..... Happy Summer and will continue to update after holidays and the start of the school year.
