Christy went and had J's picture taken at a kids photo place. If you guess Kiddie Kandied; your right. You probably could tell by the sweet pose. Anyway he is a pretty good kid. The family is now slowly starting to get better. The other night I was coughing so hard that I pulled a muscle in back and tweaked my neck. So I decided that is was finally time that I went into the doctor. So after being sick for three and half weeks, I was diagnosed with post pnuemonia, a sinus infection, and strep throat. Needless to say that when the doctor told me that I was sick, I wanted to slap him. After a shot that hurt like hell, 2000mg of Ogmentum a day for the next 10 days, and some sweet cough syrup; hopefully I will start feeling better. The kids are doing well and adjusting to life in the USA. The other day we drove by an American flag and Jenna looked up at it and said "Look Dad, the Statue of Liberty". You got to love Jenna. She still can't figure out which flag is which. Well take care and keep us posted on life, where ever you may be.

What a stinker. She is an independent 2 year old. She got her own cereal and makes her own hot chocolate! She even got her own cough syrup and drank half of the bottle on Saturday. After the panic and calling poison control and found out everything we going to be ok. We had a good laugh at her because she was pretty goofy. She could berely stay on her feet and couldn't walk strait. She kept walking I mean staggering around say in a very loud slurred voice "I feel better" and she did for a bit till she got off her high and threw everything up. It was a great lesson for all of us. 1.) I need to put the medicine away right after I we use it and 2.) I need to keep a better eye on her. It was a good lesson for Sydney and Jenna too about drugs. Rachel on the down of the cough medicine wasn't a pretty sight. This was an experience we never want to have again!
