Irritated....oh and puppies

I am sooo irritated with myself right now. I decided that it was best to go see Ty's current pediatrician who is now 30 plus miles away because he needed his well check and he has been having some issues with being tired/exhausted. Ty has been just tired and wore out for about a month now. This is sooo not normal for my 5 year old. He gets tired walking around the zoo, he begs to go to bed at 6 pm (yes I know, some of you would love kids that beg to go to bed) and he has had a few days where he just isn't awake very long, say 5 hours. So, my theory is he is having some asthma issues, ones that might effect his lung function. I take him for his well check and am going to bring this up. We really get started out on the wrong foot. The nurse does a vision check, Ty says he can't see the shapes beyond the first line with his left eye (he is likely left eye dominant as he is left handed). The nurse moves him up and lets him looks with both eyes to see if he knows the shapes, asks him a couple on each line and he knows the shapes (he knew them last year too, imagine that). He moves back and is again asked the shapes in the same order and he says what they are, not great but okay. Then we switch eyes (to his right eye which is likely not his dominant eye) and he is asked the same shapes, he can see the top one. He can not see anything beyond that, and I asked him, do you not know what it is or you can't see it? He says "I can't see it". The nurse at that point labels him uncooperative and moves us into the room. I am a bit perturbed, Ty was not uncooperative, he said he couldn't see....my son is above all else, laid back and happy, he is not going to just not do something or stop cooperating, that just isn't his nature. So we move on to him being tired, the ped listens to his lungs and tells me he is fine. I tell him everything that has gone on with Ty being tired and not having a lot of energy and such and basically he chalks it up to Seasonal Affect Disorder, which really would be okay except I live in south Texas and it is sunny every day and in the 60's. Ty plays/goes outside everyday. The ped says Ty is always grumpy. My kid is maybe grumpy for a minute and a half when he is mad about something but that rarely happens. He is just a happy guy. So, I have no idea what is going on with him, I just don't think it is the season....I do think he may be not breathing as well as he should, oh and we did not get refills on asthma meds, because it can't possibly be his asthma.

So, on a lighter note, here are puppies. I LOVE these little dogs, I know they are going to be BIG DOGS, but they are great and they love kids and are great all the way around. Ty is having so much fun with them. They were even worth bathing 3 crazy dogs in the tub!!

This is Sadie with Ty :)



And this is our Lucy girl

Sadie eating, this dog rules the roost where food is concerned, the smallest but definitely the most likely to eat first
