Home

We came all the way home yesterday. The boys were great. Eli rode with his daddy on the way home and had a great time. Micah slept a lot and thus was not all that ready to go to sleep when everyone else was. The trip was good. It is nice to be home but it is bittersweet.

Heading home....

We are heading home today. We will not arrive till some time Saturday. Both boys are ready for home and their toys I believe. Eli has asked several times when we will go to his "white house." They have been so good. Keep us in your prayers as we travel.

Traveling

So we are in North Carolina. We took two days to make the trip and have been here since Sunday. Happy late Mothers day to all you moms. We spent most of Mother's Day in the car but it was a good day. The boys, via my sister, got me a charm that has two little boys on it. It is beautiful. We are here till Friday some time. It has been a good trip so far. The boys have been great. They are starting to get tired of not having their normal routine. Although I would not have said we had a normal routine.

I know I promised pictures a while back and I hope to get those up soon plus some from our trip.

Nothing much...

We have be up to nothing much. I am working - either at the bank or around the house. The boys are staying outside as much as possible. Pop and Lollie have a lot of yard work and both boys love to help.

Eli has been saying the prayer before we eat for a while now. But lately he has started saying a longer prayer. Most days he tells God thanks for the fun stuff we did today outside. He will even throw in an occasional "I got in trouble" or thanks for the Dr Pepper I get to drink. It is so cute I have a hard time not laughing at him. Which I really dont need to do because then he or Micah will think that it is okay to laugh during prayer. What fun boys.

Micah has a rash all over him now. I took him to see the doctor Thursday afternoon and he said he thought the fever was viral or allergy related. I guess due to having a rash now it was more viral. I think he is also about to cut some more teeth. He still only has three on the bottom so the fourth should come soon as well as the first set of molars. What fun to look forward too!

Spring

I got home this morning after having to go to town and noticed one of Micah's eyes looked a little red. I hope we are not going to be one that has allergy pink eye and keep it all spring. But if we do we will take it one eye at a time.

We spent so time out today in the sand box. The boys love to play in the sand. Micah and Eli also like to dig and help plant flowers. Today Micah wanted to help water the trees and plants also.

Micah got in the swing today while we were outside. He enjoyed it. He also went down the slide and would get to the bottom and jump up saying again. It was so cute. I also too pics today of him feeding himself. He does so good and was such a mess.

Eli is great. He is coughing again but i really think it is because of allergies. He is getting so big. While we were outside today he sat and played with his backhoe and wheel loader. He knows the difference between them and will correct you if you call one the wrong name. I could go on for hours, so I better stop now. I will try to upload pics this week.

Clear eyes...

Micah's eyes are back to normal. Boy, he did not like the eye drops. Now he has a runny nose. As does Eli.

The boys got to go to a Fun Day at Cotaco School on Friday. They had a great time. Well, I was told they had fun. Pop and Lollie got to go with them and I worked. There are some great pics I hope to up load this week. Not much else is going on. We are loving being outside. Micah is very quick. He can move nicely over the ground and if you are not careful be up the steps. Eli got his tee out yesterday and is getting use to hitting a base ball with his "base bat" again. We played soccer today. It was so much fun.

Pink eyes....

You got it. We have pink eye. Micah woke up with it from his nap yesterday. Of course this was at 5 so we could not go to the doctor till today. Not only do we have pink eye, we have it in both eyes. Aint that fun. So we are getting to do the eye drops four times a day, two drops per eye. You never know how strong a child is till you have to hold them down to do something. It is taking three of us.

Eli is doing great. Since it is finally starting to warm up he is staying outside a good bit. He loves to plant flowers with Pop and Lollie.
