Boring

Not much terribly new here! No updates from Ohio, but Dr. G actually had his assistant call us because at this point hes looking for it himself! Lucy keeps asking when she will get the medicine Ohio promised her that would make her belly stop hurting. Ouch!

Last week we went to the beach for several days. Big Zach was out of state for a week, training for his promotion at work. The kids had a blast and it was great to just get some time to spend with the kids alone, no distractions!

Lucy seems to be tiring out more quickly here lately. After just about any activity she needs to sleep it off with a nap after wards. If she doesn't get her nap, look out, shes a grouchy grouch! I don't know if this is a sign her anemia has worsened or if its something else entirely- its been a chronic issue with Lucy tiring faster than most kids.

The kids adopted a praying mantis they found in the yard. Good ole' Google gave us easy instructions to create a habitat for him. So far he seems to be thriving, but I'd like to get him back to the "wild" of our urban back yard sooner rather than later because I just don't trust our ability to keep him alive. In the meantime, we'll call this a science lesson!

Zachary is deep into writing "books" of his own right now. I absolutely love it! I wrote my first "book" when I was six, which made its way to being published in the school paper. After that, I wrote countless stories and poems up through middle school as a hobby. Its so fun to see Zachary developing a love of writing too!

So far I am in love with our new DME(medical supplier). Every month they deliver our supplies with no problem, on time with just ONE phone call (as compared to late with 3 or 4 follow up phone calls just to get it sent). Not only is their service easy peasy, but their cost is significantly less. They charge about half of what our old DME was charging for the same formula! I am so glad we switched!!

Thats all the updates I have for now! Thank you for checking on Lucy and our family!!
