Sad Day

James is OK. But, he has been very sick the last few days, and today after 5 hours of testing we have discovered that he has a pretty serious UTI and kidney infection. It is uncommon for his age, and the reasons why are still unclear. James is miserable, and may possibly be admitted to the hospital to be put on an IV to keep him hydrated.

Like I said, he is OK. He will recover and be fine, but it is breaking my heart to see him like this. His little body is fighting a painful and serious grown-up infection. So, James and I will stay in MD until he is well enough to go home. We'll call it an extended vacation, and take advantage of all the love and support we're getting from my family. Later.

We like this place

We like to come to eat here.

I looove clam chowder. It's been such a rainy summer that I'm craving soup all the time.

And, this is a very good salad that I want to re-create. Burbon steak tips on Ceasar salad. Mmmmm.

Rain, Rain, Go Away....

The weather has changed. It's gotten ugly.

But, we're not letting it stop us.

We're still in good spirits.

After all, rainy days create bonding experiences, right?

Love Hate

Shane gave James his first popsicle today. Orange flavor. He didn't know what to think.

It was love/hate. He made faces like this because of the cold, but screamed at Shane when he took it away. Overall, a very funny, and cute experience.

One Happy Family

Shane's getting his daily fix.

And, this guy is getting so much love and stimulation, he spends half the day sleeping.

As for me, I have a house full of family to cook with, talk with, and play with. What more could we want?

100

We're in D.C, NY, and NH for the next week. We're already having lots of fun. See you later.

He wants to show you...

He just cut a new tooth, which makes 2. Right next to each other, on the bottom, in the middle.
