Another travel job, this time in the fine city of Minneapolis Minnesota. I’ll be there until Monday. The amount of equipment I take on this job requires the rental of a truck, so I’m really going to enjoy it while I have it.

6 Month Checkup (better late then never)
This morning the boys had their 6 month checkup, although due to recent travels it’s actually closer to a 7 month checkup.
Overall things went as expected, the boys are developing fine and health. The only unexpected news is that Andrew’s head is growing faster then average for his age. To make sure that everything is fine, they want to do a CT Scan this Thursday to make sure there is no fluid build up. This is just a precaution and even the doctor said that anytime she’s ordered this test it’s always come back fine. So we’re not thrilled about it, but not overly concerned either.
He’s scheduled for the scan at 1pm this Thursday. I’ll post an update later this week with the results as soon as we get them. The big bummer for me is that I’m traveling on a job this week so I will not be there for him or Brenda.

Girls Night Out
Brenda, her sisters, and niece Randi all went out tonight to see a band at a local festival. Before leaving they all came over to love on the boys and make them feel special.
And Dad was able to spend some quality time with the two crabby boys that didn’t want to sleep.

Hello Cool Air, How we Missed You So
After several days and way too much $$$, we have a new air conditioner, new furnace, new air cleaning system and whole house humidifier. Now if we can just have the washer and dryer fall apart it will be the PERFECT week!

How do you say goodbye to an old friend?
We may have only known him for the last 10 years, but 42 year old GE Air-conditioner (we called him Mr. Coolie) pushed out his last cold breath on Friday. Time of death is estimated at 7:39am.
Brenda is quoted as saying “Early that morning I heard a loud scream and crashing noise from the yard. I didn’t think anything of it at the time, but later when Rachel called (our Nanny) and told me the house was 125 degrees and that the boys hair kept catching fire, I knew in my gut that Mr. Coolie was gone”.
Memorial services will be held sometime this week when Mr. Coolie’s replacement (Mr. Efficient) is brought in to take over his duties.
Mr. Coolie, we will miss hearing your loud clanging startup sounds and unheard of high electric bills. May you be in a better place now.
