Recovering

Nice shot of me huh? Thought I would include this so people could see how things are coming along. Had a doctor's appointment on Monday. Things are going well. Looks like she has dropped a bit and blood pressure and weight are good. Go back in two weeks, then the weekly visits begin.

Kendall and I visited a pumpkin patch on Sunday. She had a blast - running to each one and picking it up. We picked out a white one for her to paint, one for mommy to carve, and a small warty one that just screamed daddy.

So cute.

Kendall was hit with something this weekend. She has had a cough and threw up for the first time Saturday morning. At first we thought that perhaps it was just due to some phlegm. But, alas it continued. Here she is cuddling with daddy. Fortunately she never ran a fever and seems to be over it now.

Bad news is she passed it on to mommy who was sick all day Monday and then daddy got it Monday night. Aaron and I both stayed home from work today and appear to be on the mend. I think it is ironic that for 6 years now, I have asked Aaron to play hookie with me, and the one time we actually do stay home together we spend the day apart - him in bed and me on the couch recovering. Aaron is still a bit whiney, but that is to be expected I guess. Let me tell ya, it is times like this that you really "feel" being away from family and friends. It is hard work to be a sick parent!

Here is just a random shot of Kendall reading. She loves to read to herself now and it is very cute as she just babbles as she turns pages. She continues to add words to her vocabulary. This weekend she surprised us with "you ready," when rough housing with daddy. So darn cute!

We did manage to get a picture setting in this weekend and have some great shots to share with everyone. We'll try to post a few of those in the next few days.
