Just An Update


Nothing major going on around here except for the busy-ness the fall always brings. We were actually supposed to have been on a retreat with our class this weekend, but our plans fell through so we are all hanging out at home.
Benjamin had his four year check-up at the doctor on Wednesday. He did great! I think he only goes for the free lollipop. And because I make him. Poor kid...he had four regular shots plus the flu shot. He handled it as expected, a little bit of "Okay...stop...you're done now!" And maybe one or two tears. After watching Benjamin get all of those shots, it was Jonathan's turn for his flu shot. He watched the nurse prep the needle, rub his thunder-thigh with alcohol, stick him, inject it and pull it out. All without a peep. It was like a walk in the park for him. The two nurses and I really couldn't get over his "non-reaction"!
We are hoping to make it to the pumpkin patch after church tomorrow morning. Other than that, we're hanging out and catching up on stuff!

We really missed you on the retreat! Jonathan and I had to come back tonight. I hope that everyone is feeling better in your family.

That is funny that Jonathan had no reaction. Kids always surprise you.

That is a cute picture of the boys in their cars! Jonathon is a tough little boy. I should have prepped Jackson for is shot he got last week, because he was having nothing to do with it!
