Today I was/am sick. I have a cold, yuck. Angela is sick also and Christina is getting sick.

Today Christina and I played at home. The goal was to keep Christina from getting sick. So far she is doing ok. We had a lot of fun walking up and down the hall and peeking out the window. We also sang, read, and sat on the couch and played with some toys on our lap. Angela was at the coffee shop doing lots of homework.

We planned on seeing Uncle James and Aunt Robyn, but Christina turned on me at nap time. Christina was tired and happy to lay down. She did not take a nap however, only quiet time. The tired girl became a cuddle me and limited playing girl.

To get out of the house, I thought Angela, Christina and I could go out for dinner. Christina was uncooperative, even for Angela. Dinner was good, but I had hoped for a better outing.

Today Christina and I went swimming at the YMCA when Angela went shopping and did homework. We had a great time. Christina did wonderful walking and kicking.

I went to the gym this evening and feeling pretty proud of myself.

I am almost done with the update to email everyone. I hope to finish and send that when Christina takes a nap tomorrow.

Thanksgiving Day

Well it was a pretty quiet Thanksgiving here. Christina and I played and sang. We did a lot of walking. My back and knees feel it.

We went for a drive to the gas station for our outing today. It wasn't much but gave us the chance to sing in the car and stay out of the wind. I have a stuffy nose and sore throat so it was more for me. And I did not think I would be able to carry everything back while also carrying Christina.

Angela went to visit with family at her aunt's.

We opted for a different dinner menu today. We had steak and mashed potatoes. Christina ate very well. She enjoys the meat juices mixed into her potatoes.

Christina and I walked up and down the hall again after dinner. She took wonderful steps all day. Then it was bath time and getting ready for bed. Angela went for a drive to call a friend while Christina and I did the night time routine.

Another Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. We all have something to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving Eve

Happy Thanksgiving Eve!!!

Today was a typical Wednesday. The day at work was pretty average with fewer calls than normal.

Angela had a doctor appointment today. Not much new, they still can not do anything to fix or help her leg. Time, time, time. Waiting and hoping sucks and I can just begin to imagine what she is going through. The pain is unbearable for her.

Christina had a good day. She started to get a little bored with mommy I guess. Christina and I walked a lot tonight before and after dinner. Christina really enjoyed it and took wonderful steps. She also ate well for dinner.

Angela went to the coffee shop to do homework and download more pictures onto the flash drive for me. She also met her mom and Harp for a Thanksgiving drink.

Today went by quickly. I thought about this blog updating thing and figured that the end of the day is probably the best if I try the once a day. So here we go...

I transferred the latest pictures from Angela. I managed to get them sorted and have them queued for upload. For those of you who check the latest pics, most of them should be up by early morning. As I started going through the pics to upload I remembered I better sync the iPod tonight so I don't have to wait in the morning. There is nothing worse than being short on time, plug in the iPod and realize it is going to sync 400+ pictures.

Angela went to the coffee shop to do some homework tonight. Christina and I ate dinner and played. Christina ate very well. We still have issues with the highchair. We being Christina and I, Angela and Christina do not have any troubles at all. All attitude with the little princess.

We of course went for our nightly walk. We only go for about ten minutes, but Christina loves it and it is good for me too. I am planning to continue when the temperature drops. Christina and I both don't mind the cold.

Until next post.
