Sully Scare

Recently we had a scare with Sully. He was having nose bleeds occasionally while sneezing and one time lost quite a bit of blood while sleeping on the pillow.(We had to throw the pillow out.) After talking to a few people we heard that Cancer can cause nose bleeds. We got worried and took Sully in to the vet to get their opinion. The vet didn't seem worried. It had been 2 days since Sullies nose had bleed and he said he doubted it was cancer even after I explained to him where we moved from. He said because everything was so dry that a lot of people and animals noses have been bleeding and not to worry. Knock on wood everything is o.k. with Sully. He is our baby.

Jacob's New Friend

Just an update on Jacob's friend search. Jacob has found a boy in the neighborhood to play with. His name is Aaron and although he is a few years older he has Ausbergers Syndrome and is at the same maturity level as Jake. He could not be any happier! We just found out his mom helps out with Jacob's Scout troop. Just wanted to let everyone know how happy Jacob is now that he found a friend!

No News is Good News

It's been a while. Not much going on here. The weather has been great this past week...it's been in the 50's. I'm getting spring fever...ready to go camping. Everyone is doing well. Cori and Jake have been off track from school for the last three weeks and will be going back this Monday. I put in for time off of work for July to bring the kids out and visit for a week. The dates we're off are June 30th til July 8th. This will allow us to visit for a few days before coming back home. Then on the weekend of the 28th we will be coming back out to Illinois to pick up the kids to bring them back. Hopefully this schedule will work for everyone back home. We can't wait to see everyone. I know we still have a few months but hopefully it will go fast. Cassie, Cori and Jacob are also very excited to see everyone. Hope everyone is doing well there and as always....love and miss everyone!
