Our past week.



a little bit of cousin time while Mike and Brig played some basketball







a little bit of popover time at the Pub after basketball



a little bit of boxing
(Clark made it to the Tri-state Championship and we drove up to Burlington to watch him)



a little bit of sitting up time after church



a little bit of sick time for our boy--hanging out with his dad and waiting
for his fever to go down


How is it only Monday? I feel like it should be at least Wednesday and the week just begun? We got up early for our 6 month check up (even though he is nearly 7) and the Doctor sorta, kinda, fell in love with our boy and said he was perfect--no really she said just that. He weighs about 16 and a half pounds now and is 27 inches long. He is lower on the growth scales but we all know the growth scales in the States are based on unhealthy weights so our boy is doing just fine.

He has developed a little cough and stuffy nose the last couple days but everyone has one and his temp was normal at the appointment this morning. He started getting a little droopy later in the day and I could tell he was warming up. We took his temp and it was pretty high and went ahead and called the doctor up at the hospital just to check in. He told us to get him stripped down to one layer and give him some tylenol and call back in 30 mins. It dropped and then continued to drop the next couple hours and our spazzy little guy came back to life. He is still pretty snuffly and not %100 but we'll keep a close eye on him the next couple days. Winters are rough on the little people, well everyone but again, I am grateful for our lovely warm house--well at least the 2nd floor is warm :)

Hopefully tomorrow is a little less than today was because I feel exhausted and nothing has happened. Onto the rest of the week.

Spot the forhead ... Eddie and lars look like brothers. He looks more like your family every day. He looks so cute ... I love his outfit and the wool jacket. We love your little boy ... of course he is perfect and who would not love him.

He is one of the most adorable things ever! Even when he's sick! It's hard to go through sickness when they are little, but you are doing a good job with him, so don't be like your big sister and worry too much.
Eddie is adorable too! So glad to see a new picture of him. And go Clark!
