5 Question Friday

1. Do you have siblings and are you close with them?
A younger brother - he's awesome. I see him about twice a month. I pray for him lots.

2. Would you rather be slightly UNDER weight or slightly OVER weight?
Slightly overweight - like to be comfortable

3. What's your favorite State Fair food to splurge on?
Don't really go to the fair with a 3 year old - but I like cheese curds...especially the fried ones...probably related to question #2.



4. What are your thoughts on your kid(s) going to school in a few weeks?
Josh will go back to daycare...I can hardly believe he's 3...but looking forward to seeing him in a new class, learning new things.

5. Pool or Ocean?
I like the ocean if it's calm, but I've had some bad experiences getting dragged on the bottom by big waves...so for relaxation, I like a pool, but oceans are beautiful.

Happy Birthday, Joshua Michael!

Look who is 3! (Or, if you ask him, two-half).

Beginning with the End

Remember all that paperwork? I did the last one first - the Physician's report on Joshua.

Joshua had his 3 year old check up at the doctor today. He is 36.5 inches tall and weighs 35 pounds. She said he was very bright and was amazed at how much he had to say. He got one shot. They will be doing an asthma and allergy work up on him due to some coughing/wheezing episodes he's been having for the last few months. Eczema and asthma are related, so we're guessing that's what it is. He goes to the allergist in 2 weeks, and until then, will be trying an albuterol inhaler.

Otherwise, he's completely amazing, and according to the doctor's report, there is nothing about his health that would interfere with another child entering our home. Ok, so we already knew that, but it feels good to have one paper over and done with. Now for the other 50 or so...
