Well, we had a week last week. Frazier fractured his tibia on the trampoline Wednesday night. Being the good parents we are, we thought he was just tired and had bruised something, so we sent him to bed. He woke up a few times in pain (this boy normally sleeps like a log), and in the morning he wouldn't put any weight on it. After a surprisingly fast and pleasant visit to Patient First, we saw the break and Daddy took off to take him to the orthopedic doctor while I took Mary-Michael to kindergarten registration and assessment. Big day! She did awesome and was excited once she stopped clinging to my leg, and little man was very strong with no tears as he got his leg prodded and wrapped up.
We were feeling pretty good until I discovered full blown lice in Frazier's hair and some nits in Mary-Michael and my own the next morning. Can I say gross?! Lice is awful. After some natural remedies, a lot of tears, a shaved head and more than a dozen loads of laundry we are in the clear. I still am struggling sleeping because mentally I itch! And I'm still checking our hair like a crazy lady.
Amidst this fun, we have also acquired a pot belly piglet and a handful of wild bunnies a few weeks old. If you're looking for a petting zoo for your next child's party, please give us a ring!
And we also wait patiently (haha) for the Niger embassy to tell us they've started the final investigation (I604 for those that know adoption lingo). This is our last step, and we are choosing (sometimes each minute) to trust the Lord and His timing.
He's still prett handsome!
Cast brothers with Micah.
Celebrating Karis' 2nd birthday. He's learned to scoot and get where he wants pretty well.
A picture of Leila from Sunday. She's getting a lot of time at the LOC with Thomas in town to get Immanuel's medical exam complete. Please pray for their paperwork to move swiftly, too!
