Took the kids for some more shots today. Liana was a trooper; didn't even flinch or whimper. The other two on the other hand.... Oy. It's getting worse for each round (we go in once a month for shots to get them caught up). It took three nurses plus me to hold Aleksa down, and as soon as she was done, she shut off the tears and was all smiles and giggles. Little stinker... ;O) The nurses all felt sorry for me when I told them that this was how our plane ride home was. Aleksa has some kinda lungs on her when she's remotely scared.
Adam was Naugh-Ty. He cried, as usual, but also got mad at everyone and wouldn't talk to the nurses after he was done and pretty much threw himself a pity-party. Not really sure how to handle him when he gets that way. I know he's got some anxieties about doctors, but he should not be mad or unkind to people because of it. Don't like that.
We're having the kids all re-tested for parasites, so we get to collect stool samples again. Oh joy. Ask me how excited I am about that...
This afternoon after I declared it time to pick up their bedrooms, Liana made her bed, and then went into her closet and pulled out an outfit that she just got this weekend that happens to perfectly match her blankets. She layed it on her bed and kept it there... It looks pretty next to the blankets, she said. !!??.
Tonight for a treat we all watched Swiss Family Robinson. The kids LOVED it. Lots of squeals of excitement. At the end, the oldest boy gets the girl if you remember. Liana declared that she is going to get married too one day. Her husband is going to have either brown hair and brown eyes or blond hair and blue eyes. Or pink, she said. Well, alrighty then. (Does that mean that any ole man will do?) (Good thing we have a few years to iron those things out...)

Dear Shelly,
I would like to wish your family a wonderful first Thanksgiving together. I believe Thanksgiving is our best national holiday, and on Thursday I'll think of you all as you enjoy it together for the first time!
Sincerely, Sharon from MD
