October 12, 2009

Ricky is 3 years and 9 months old, and Everett is 2 years and 3 months old! Everett has passed up his brother in weight by almost a pound! They are both wearing 4T clothing. In the last month both boys have been on breathing treatments. Everett has been fighting fever off and on all month. He's had several bouts with viruses, and at one point he had another double ear infection. They have been doing some immune testing on Everett. They reimmunized him with the DTAP and Pnuemonia vaccine. The results just came in, and his antibodies reacted positively. That is fantastic news! We are wondering if Everett needs his tonsils out. Ricky has been so much healthier since his were removed! We've started both boys on some probiotics to see if we can boost their immune systems! Hopefully this will do the trick!

We have had fun times this month! The boys started Awanas and LOVE it! Everett loves to sing and play. Ricky has been memorizing verses to earn a book, bag, and vest! He is very motivated! While Ricky is practicing his verses and reading bible stories, Everett has learned to say the entire Our Father by himself! We are continuing private swim lessons, and the boys are doing fabulous! They are very impressive swimmers! They are making great strides in their lessons! Ricky and Mommy attended Addison's birthday party and got to meet Pablo from the Backyardigans! Our family has also been to the Museum of Natural Science and IMAX again this month. Both boys soak up everything like a sponge! They run from one thing to the next asking questions! Daddy and I are all smiles seeing things through their eyes for the first time!

Rick and I continue to try to have date night once a month. We enjoy our time together! Now that the boys are in Awanas, every Sunday we drop them off and go out to dinner, shop, talk, etc. We treasure the time we spend without distractions! We enjoy just focusing on one another!

We look forward to keeping everyone up to date through our new blog!! Check out pictures below from this month!
