ailments and old friends

We spent all morning at the doctor’s office. Ammon has a head cold (and I’m terrified it’s going to morph into RSV), Lydia has bronchitis, and Mary is going blind (and has a cold). Abe and I have also self-diagnosed with bronchitis. We are still doing lice treatments, and I have a shot sciatic nerve, hemorrhoids, and canker sores all over from stress and lack of sleep. It’s been fun times over here.

At least our kids are cute!

Mary has jumped from the third percentile in weight to the eighth!

Tonight we had Jan, George, Chelsea, Derek, and kids over for dinner. We just love when Jan and George come to town.

Jan caught a picture of me promising Mary she could have her cake before dinner. She woke up from a late nap during dessert and was sad at the prospect of eating dinner while all of the kids ate dessert.
