It's been a long time!!

Wow, I can't believe I haven't posted in a week. Sorry!! It's been a little crazy around here this past week. The boys have been sick again...I think it's been almost 2 months since I've had 3 well children. Henry and Charles are mostly having trouble with allergies. But with their asthma this always includes A LOT of coughing. At least Henry also has a cold because Andrew has whatever Henry has. And Andrew doesn't have allergies...at least not yet. Andrew has had a terrible cough that has been keeping him up at night...and us, but seems to feel pretty good otherwise. He's been so happy and busy (as always). His cough seems a little better today so hopefully tonight will also be better. This was us last Friday night. We LOVE to sit on the porch swing!! It was a little chilly that day, but I was warm!!
This was our bed on Saturday morning. Saturday morning cartoons!! Andrew really did have fun. We can just never get him to smile for the camera.
I snapped a few shots of Andrew on Sunday in the yard. I'm hoping to take them to Plummer House or downtown one day, but the weather never seems to work out when I have time to actually take them.
On Sunday night, the boys and I left for awhile so Travis could get some extra schoolwork done. We picked up supper and went to the park for a picnic. The boys loved it!! Andrew hasn't been on a picnic to the park before, but he did great. He loves the swing!!

We're planning to go camping this weekend. Hopefully, Andrew will be feeling better. We're only going to Chester Woods, a local county park about 5 miles from home, but it is one of our favorites places to go. It's so quiet and they have decent hiking trails. Of course, our hiking is of the slower, shorter variety with the boys. Last year we laughed after we got back to the camper because we managed to spot a daddy long leg spider crossing the path as well as a caterpillar. Now you know how fast we go. Hopefully I'll have some good pictures after the weekend.

**As always, please keep James in your prayers. He had an MRI today to check for any Wilm's tumor in his liver, and the results will be given to the family tomorrow. Please pray for good news for them. I highlighted his name so you can just click on it and it will take you to his blog. They have some amazing pictures!! If anyone is interested in donating to his benefit, you can find the information on the flyer below. **
