It Dad

this weekend daves dad and wife came to visit us. They also had gone down to texas and picked up davids brother (that he just talked to for the 1st time a few short months ago) Richard. All in all we had a pretty good time. Nancy cooked SO much Lao food.....mmmm the sticky rice, larb, Thom Nam, papya salad, lao sausage, Pho...mmmmmm. But i pretty much burned my face off eating it all...they like their food SPICY. Richard broke a sweat everytime we ate, but loved it!
The boys had fun playing Rock Band and just getting to know each other. I think they all enjoyed themselves for the most part.

Jace ran a high fever almost all weekend.


His little body was fighting something off. With a few baths, some egg whites, carefully (maybe obsessive) monitoring, and a lot of worring on my part he broke the fever finally. I'm not big on the medicine, in fact i'd rather not go to it unless i absolutly feel its nessisary. there are reasons you run fevers. i did give him some motron at night so he could get some better rest. This was his first real fever so i defiantly felt it too. I know its just a fever and its not that serious...but i tell you this child and mother connection is an amazing thing. i'm so attached to this kid that i can feel what he feels and everything he goes through effects me BIG time.




We went to the zoo last week and had a good time. Jace had gone to the zoo when he was like a week old and this time he actuallly stayed awake (most the time) and was able to look at the animals! He loved the turtles and the BIG gorilla. I think his favorite part was all the other little kids running around. we'll definatly go back again and again, we only saw a tiny bit of the zoo that day
