July 7th Update

It has been a tough week.  Sarah has tried to eat us out of house and home.  We have woken up to her standing at the foot of the bed saying, "I am starving.  I want a cinnamon roll."  This week she has also needed to do something every minute.  If she is just watching a show, she will often come to find Jess or I and say "I don't know what to do.  Dad, what can I do?"  It is trying on us between her and Gus needing almost constant attention.

We are so grateful to those who helped out with Lilly this week.  Lilly was able to go to other people's houses in the ward, to the salmon locks, and to a movie thanks to ours who were willing to let her tag along.  This helped out the sanity at home.

Sarah's numbers are doing pretty well this week and we are on track.  We have a week off of the steroids and hopefully she will get a few days of being Sarah before she gets cranky again.

Gus got his hair cut by Mom on Friday.  He got a crewcut and looks great.  It is funny to watch him when you ask him "where is your hair" because he expects it to be longer.  He also found his shadow today while he was running on the grass in the back yard.  He would run across and be so excited that it just followed him along.  When he ended up in the shadow of the house, he was confused where it went.  It was funny to watch him learn and play.

Thanks for all the help.  We are very gratefully for all the help that our family receives.  We are also grateful for the prayers and thoughts on our behalf.

  1. Was that the steroids making her hungry? It's cool that she is so energetic ;)
