Catch up on pictures

Things have been busy as usual up here. Anna is feeling better, and is actually at camp this week. After a little over a week on the antibiotics, I could see her energy level increasing quite a bit. When she first started on the antibiotics, I was wondering if she'd even be able to make it through camp, but by last Saturday when I dropped her off, she was almost back to normal. I actually had to harass her for doing cartwheels in the house!

Noah was sick all day yesterday with a stomach bug. He woke up complaining of a headache, which is a strange complaint for a 4 year old! Within an hour he had a fever, and was vomiting. He couldn't even keep water down. He just laid in the bed all day yesterday, sleeping off and on, whimpering and crying. By last night he was able to drink some Sprite and eat a popsicle. Today he's feeling a lot better, still tired and weak from  not eating much yesterday, but at least he's not vomiting any more! Poor guy.

The girls and I are leaving Saturday for Kansas City. Pavan's mother will be flying into Rhinelander on Sunday and heading back to Dallas with Noah on Monday. I will have my laptop with me in KC, so I will try to keep the journal entries going while we are out of town. At least the pictures...I'm sure Pavan will be dying to see some pictures with everyone out of town and him stuck at home working!

We have some sad news up here. Our dear friend, Connie, has been diagnosed with a form of breast cancer. To make it even more difficult, Pavan is her doctor! She just loves Dr.Reddy, and wouldn't think of letting anyone else operate on her! She called me this morning (the biopsy results just came back  yesterday, he went by her work to talk with her last night) and sounds good. Now that she knows what's going on, she just wants to move forward and do whatever needs to be done to make it better. I love that attitude! To make matters worse, her sister had a stroke yesterday morning. She was airlifted to Marshfield (2 hours from here by car) for treatment, and they are hopeful she will regain her movement and feeling in her right side...but it's a wait and see sort of situation. ANYWAY...Connie, her sister Dee, and their entire family could use all of our thoughts and prayers.

I'd better get going. Noah wants me to come lay down with him...and I'm going to take him up on that offer! His days of cuddling with Mommy are numbered, he's a growing boy you know!!

More later,
