Jack and Bill


Today I hear little Carson reciting Jack and Jill. He learned this nursery rhyme at preschool last week. Carson decided to change it up to his likings, though.

This is his version.

Jack and Bill went up the hill.
Jack fell down and broke his little crown.
And Jill went crumbling after.

When I recited the original version Carson informed me that he doesn't like the water pail part so he leaves it out. That's just fine with me.

Carson's and Owen's first race

Carson and Owen ran in the Link 4 Life Run on Saturday, April 18, 2009. They had a fantastic time! Check out the short video of their race day.

Is that a train I hear?

Here's a short video of Carson singing his favorite bedtime song. Thank you to Johnny Cash and Daddy for teaching Carson this song.

Update on Stella's and Isaac's "condition"



Stella and Isaac went to see the pediatric GI doctor on April 13, 2009. I'm sure Dr. Zayat thought we were crazy for taking two "healthy" babies to see her. Stella and Isaac were as happy as could be the day we saw her. They were walking and crawling all over the place. All in all it was a good appointment. Dr. Zayat doesn't seem to think there is anything seriously wrong with the babies, due to their activity, weight gain, and positive results in blood work and stool samples and no change in the babies condition when we changed their diet. This is the best news we could have asked for. It seems as if Stella and Isaac have Toddler's Diarrhea. This is a condition where the only cure is time. Carson and I were informed that it should go away when the babies turn three or four years old. So, until then we will all just suck it up. I tell myself that this could be so much worse. We are very blessed that this is all that's wrong with Stella and Isaac.
