Well, I should start off by saying, thanks to everyone who participated in a special fast for our family, Steve and I were cleared for work today. Jackson contracted Ecoli on our trip to Idaho in August. THANKFULLY it never became serious, and he has been asymptomatic, but we have all been giving stool samples every week since then, and because we were all positive, I have been unable to work and Steve unable to see patients. But today we were cleared, yay! And hopefully we can get rid of the bug for good. So since we have all this mandatory free time, what have we been up to?!
Well, Jackson has been practicing his "mad face". Lately he likes to give everyone his mad face especially strangers and the camera.
Unfortunately, we are also transitioning him out of nap time and he has major meltdowns almost every night at bedtime, during which he gives us a real mad face. We are just going to have to buckle down and put him to bed earlier... no more party life for Jackson!
Katie is cute and sweet as ever, she is starting to grab for things and play with toys. Had to include the wipes here because I remember Jackson doing the same thing!
Jackson's horse is pretty cool too. Speaking of which, we lost Maximus!! Where are you Maximus?!
We also caught Katie sucking her thumb recently!
We did take a pretty little hike last week together. Here's Jackson with his little friend Brooklyn (her mom is on bed rest with twins!!).
Cousin Alex has been in town getting some dental work done to prepare for his mission. It's been fun to have him! The kids went with Steve to the school while Alex was getting his wisdom teeth out.
( and here's Jackson giving the camera his mad face!)
Again, thanks to everyone who has been praying and fasting for us. We have felt strengthened and blessed. Here come the holidays!
