On Saturday we decided to try again getting some photos of the boys as well as an updated family photo. They boys were GREAT and just seemed to love not only being outside, but playing with leaves (a new experience for them).  You can see the best of them on SmugMug.

I didn’t get many good photos of them yesterday, but what I did get is OK. I was a bit rushed taking them and didn’t have as much time as I would have liked to set things up. On top of that, the boys decided not to cooperate so just getting them both to look at the […]

Today we had our follow up meeting with the neurologist. She reviewed the MRI report, took some measurements of Andrew and did another evaluation. The overall feedback was that he’s totally normal.

Old Washer and Dryer, coming soon to an eBay ad near  you! Last week we were very disappointed to find out our washer was not working.
