Cale is doing good. He was sick about 2 weeks ago. One doctor thought it was an ear infection but we took him to another doctor a few days later and she said it wasn't an ear infection. He was just sick. He had a fever, slept alot, and was really clingy and didn't want to play. He just laid around all day. But, he is better now. He still has a cough at night but it isn't bad at all. He is eating like a pig and he loves his warm milk before bed. He likes having his teeth brushed. I bought him a big boy toothbrush a few days ago. We were using this rubber thing you slip over your finger. Another big milestone! We took his binky away! It actually wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. It was hard, don't get me wrong. But I thought it would last more than 3 days. After 3 days, he just kinda gave up on the crying when we laid him down to sleep. We were going to take it away sooner but he got sick and we almost needed it. I like to consider that his last hoorah. Halloween was good. Cale went trick or treating at family and friend's houses. He was Yoda from Star Wars. He got me alot of candy....hahaha.
Patrick is okay. More than a month ago, he went to Georgia to visit his sister. While he was there, he was messing around and punched a punching bag they had. He called me that night and said he thought he had broken his wrist. The pain went down by the time he got home so we didn't worry about it for a couple weeks. He said the pain was still there so we went to the doctor who put him on light duty at work and told him to wear a splint. When that didn't work, he got an MRI and took the films to a hand and wrist surgeon. He said Patrick had torn some cartilage in his wrist. So, now, Patrick has to have surgery to fix it. We don't know when it will be but I think he wants to schedule it a week from monday. He will be off for awhile...during all the holidays...how lucky.
I am pretty good too! I have a sinus infection and a cough, but I think I am getting better. A few days ago I could barely talk. I think it is going around my work too. That is probably where I got it. Cale and I are going to visit Dillon next week. I am pretty excited! We get a special visit because I am coming from out of state, which means we get to take pictures! I will post them when we get back. He could really use support from family espically during the holidays coming up. Here is his address for anyone who wants to write him.
