Good times and Bad


Brody had a really bad week. When we got back from Holland, he got an ear infection and was given an antibiotic for it. Turns out he's allergic to penicillin and he broke out in hives all over his body. He also split his head open and had to get 5 stitches on his forehead. To top it all off, he had a really bad cough that gave him a lung infection, so he's on breathing treatments too. Lets just say we haven't gotten a lot of sleep for awhile. But I'm happy to say that he is doing a million times better, and the rash is gone. Poor little guy. We love him so much.





Marlee on the other hand has had a great week because she got a new kitty. She named it Meow, and is so excited. The first couple of nights she couldn't sleep because she was so happy. I finally gave in to having a pet, even though I vowed never to have a cat. It's actually not that bad.

World Travelers

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't posted for so long. I just got back from an amazing trip to Holland with Brody, Corianne, and her son Teegan. We met my grandparents there, who are taking their last trip back to Holland. They say their getting too old to go again, so Corianne and I wanted to go back with them and see all the places they've been too, and meet family we haven't seen before. We also got to see where my dad was born. We stayed for two weeks in Den Haag with my Aunt Maud. She was so funny. We were treated like queens by all my relatives, and they were so excited to have the babies around. Traveling to Europe unleashed a travel bug in me, and I can't wait to go back. Next time I'll bring the whole family though, because I was pretty homesick.
