Crazy weather

I swear the coasts have gotten a bit mixed up. Every time I talk to the folks on the west coast they are telling me about the hot and sunny weather they are experiencing. Meanwhile the overcast skies here are making Joe stir crazy.

We have had a quiet week. Joe had a fever on and off for the weekend so he went to the Dr on Monday. We are waiting for the lab results. The fever has been absent since Sunday but Joe is not quite his usual cheerful self so I think he is still feeling a bit off. Rory has had a bit of sore throat but no fever. Needless to say we have been trying to keep things quiet this week. Trying is the key word here. Tell me how do you get a 2 year old to slow down and recuperate? Oh well.

Ed and I are healthy, knock on wood. Ed has had some very exciting news. He registered for school and will be doing the electrical program at Hudson Valley in the fall of 2010. My fingers are crossed that someone will flake out and he will make it in this fall. Either way we are both very excited about the program.

Oops have to go I hear the little one squeaking for his dinner.

Love you all Nikki

Brothers & Best Friends !

Just a short note, everyone is happy and healthy. Joe had his 1 year evaluation by his teachers and the state today and they are in agreement that he has made remarkable progress. He has a few points we still need to work on with him, but since last summer he has made incredible progress. He will be perfectly ready for pre-school next year.

Rory is doing well. He eats, he sh*ts, and sleeps. Do babies do anything else ? By the way, have you figured out yet that this post is being written by his Dad ? (the things I do for my wife, I tell you...).

Have a good day see you next time !

All quiet in the farm

Auntie Amy headed home this Monday. We miss her but we know she was missing her little guys as well as her hubbie so it was time to send her home. Joe has been waiting every morning for us to go pick up auntie. Poor guy, what will he do with only 3 adults to wait on him hand and foot?

Rory is doing well. He had a bit of a tummy ache this evening but seems to have settled down. He is currently sleeping while Oma rocks him in the blue recliner that he loves.

The weather is not cooperating. Joe is running around the house like a chicken with his head cut off. All this rain has him very stir crazy. Today he got out half of his toys just to look at them. When we suggested he return them to the shelves his selective hearing kicked into high gear. Oh what have I gotten myself into, a household full of boys.

Well I have to go, time for my bed. Maybe I can catch up on some the sleep I have been missing.

Love ya all Nikki
