Busy Week...

Wow! A year ago Caitlynn was doing Field Day at a school she had just started in and knew next to nobody. Today she did Field Day with Tons of Friends and had a great time!!









Last Year....













Today after School...WOW what a difference 1 year makes!
She did great in 4th grade. She made the Boyd Top Dog list each marking period (havent got grades for 6th MP yet) and made alot of friends. For Caitlynn that's a huge deal, she always likes people, and people like her, but to have friends live nearby is awesome! She also joined girl scouts...anyone want some cookies? Tell me now and i'll call you next year! 5th grade she'll be playing Violin ... wish us luck!





Jacob is our sick little man this week. He started a FUO on Monday...low grade temp, but acting fine. So we just watched him. By Tuesday night he wasn't tollerating feeds, and was retching horribly. So we took him in. Ears and throat was fine...but his g-tube site looked bad (and still looks aweful) so she started him on Bactrim and Bactroban with Physohex bath's 1x each day for 2 weeks...then 2x each week therafter. They did a culture...and Praying it's not MRSA.



School is going great for him. It's amazing what strides he's made this year, he wasnt talking last year...now is mimicking everything, and is even trying to initiate some words, directions. "Paci Please" And "Water" are his 2 current fav's. He's staying in the self contained class next year, he'll love having another year with Ms. Gant before trying (maybe?) out the K-4 class at Boyd.




Some prayers are needed too.

  • My Grandmom Anthony...she's in end stage COPD and not doing well. Pray for her peace of mind, her comfort and everyone around her.
  • My Grandmom Davies, she's undergoing Chemo right now...
  • My Father...he's recovering from a heart attack and congested heart failure.
  • My step-Pops (Paul's Dad) he's in ICU for Congested heart failure...recovering nicely so far.
  • My cousin Tammy and Family while they pack and move from VA to AZ.
  • And well...for anyone who needs it... Huge Hugs and prayers to all you blog stalkers :)
