Hello there!

Abby Update

Ok, so we went to the GI Dr. today. Abby is doing fine! The Dr. thinks that is from a virus that she had and needs to get the bacteria levels in her tummy evened out (good&bad bacteria that help us digest food). What we have to do is give her a tablespoon twice a day of yogurt. Then I get to call the Dr. back next Friday and tell her if it worked. Here is for hoping it works!!! Pray! Other than that, we are doing great! Jonalee had a fantastic weekend and so did James and the kids.

Mommy's Weekend Out!

Well, it is mommy's weekend to get out of the house! Our church is having a women's retreat and I am going! Daddy will be home with the kids until Sunday afternoon and take Jonah to his Open House for Preschool. They will all have so much fun! This is much needed relaxing and weekend of re-energizing. So, James will need your support this weekend. Please call and give him kudo's while I am gone. :) Abby is doing better. She is on Zantac for her acid reflux and has an appointment on Tues. with the GI Dr. We will keep you updated.

Events of Yesterday

Yesterday was a big day! Jonah was making up a song in the back seat, "Jesus died on the cross cuz he wanted to... and he died for our sins..." He was cracking me up!! He sang it for Daddy when he got home. It was sooo cute. Abby rolled from her tummy to her back all by herself! That's my girl! We took her to the Dr. yesterday and they put her on Zantac and hopefully that will help. They think she has acid reflux, and we are also going to the GI doctor to make sure that she is ok and that everything is going well. Today she woke up happy and all smiles! We will take it!

Not sure what mommy was thinking on a hot day... Jonah, Abby and Mommy went downtown St. Charles and had a great time. We met a friend of mommy's and her baby. It was hot, but mommy put an icepack wrapped in a cloth under Abby's legs and Jonah and mommy shared water and a lemonade to keep cool.

Ok, check out Abby's sandles... they rock!

Hey there!

You gotta love kids. Jonah is cracking us up today. He really does say the darndest things. :) If he gets into trouble and you ask him why, "Because I have to..." Regardless of the original action. He and Daddy are at Home Depot right now. Scary thing is he knows the slogans to most every store. "You can do it, we can help". His favorite song is the Charmin song and the Vontage "woo-h000". He likes lists and then he will go back and remember details about that list... He will remind you if you forget something. Too bad the last time we were at the grocery store in the parking lot and he said, "mommy, you forgot apples". AHHH!
Well, Abby is doing great. She is smiling and trying to laugh. She is now 3 months old and officially in 3-6 mon clothes. She has been having some tummy problems, and the Dr. doesn't know why. We are sure it is not serious, but just doing some tests to find out what is bugging her.
I have a break for a few weeks and then go back full swing into weddings again. We are pretty busy this time of year. I am going on the women's retreat with our church and that next week we are back in action.
James is really busy with work. His work is going great, so we are happy he is busy . His softball tournament got rained/stormed out in the middle of it... so we will give you the place his team gets in the league probably next week.
Well, my boys are just about back from Home Depot so I should go.

It is us again. We had a great weekend with friends. They came down from MN and we had a great time. The kids got to go play in the bumper boats and on the go-carts. Christine and I and Abby got to go shopping and out to dinner! Yea! What fun.
On monday Jonalee went to the Dermatologist and he found some pre-cancerous cells on her face. Everyone jokes about her white legs and how she never gets any sun... well I still got some sun somehow. We are going to treat it with a cream (same chemical used in chemo) and see if it gets rid of it. The Dr. said it is 95% effective. We will see in 2 weeks if it worked.
James is back to work this week. :) Working hard and being "super dad". My hero.
Jonah is getting ready for school. He is itching to go. Crazy little man is everywhere. It is too hot to go outside for long right now, so it gets interesting what to do with a restless 3 year old.
Abby is doing wonderful! She is growing like crazy and starting to fit into her 3-6 month clothes (in length). She smiles alot and tries to talk to you. Very cute.
That's it for now.
