Pictures of Will
By popular demand, I just took some pictures of Will right after Bill fed him (thought I should mention this since I noticed he still had his lunch on his face when I took these pictures) and he was still snacking on Cheerios. He is such a big boy now! Every time we bring him places everybody can’t believe how big he has gotten. Without further delay, here we go:

And then we were done:


The Altitude
I always thought altitude sickness was just kinda made up. Well, now being in Arizona, I have definitely learned different. We are on the second level of our building, so we have to walk down a flight of stairs and then walk up another flight to get to our car (it is hard to explain, but you would have to see it know what I am talking about). I will admit Bill and I are out of shape. However, we can walk up a flight of stairs (even 2) without getting winded. However, by the time we get to the top up by our car, we feel like we have had several corsets wrapped around us and tied as tight as possible. You cannot breathe. I have been so winded. The other thing we noticed (besides our ears popping all the time) is that our memory isn’t as good here and that sometime we seem to get altitude headaches. I now have an appreciation for when people talk about altitude sickness and how it effects you. It really does.
Oh yeah, I apologize to anyone who has commented and I haven’t gotten back to them. I’m on vacation.
Update on the sick kids
Madison is still running a fever anywhere between 100 – 104 degrees. As soon as the Motrin Cold kicks out, her fever spikes back up. As soon as the Motrin Cold kicks in, her temperature goes back down, and she starts acting like herself. I feel bad for her. I am seriously considering keeping her home tomorrow from preschool even if her temp is down. She looks pretty pale. She’s not real big on eating either.
On the Will front, well, I had to take him to the doctor today. I was right with what I thought he had. He has impetigo. He has a sore right where the elastic of his diaper rubs. The sore is about the size of a penny (it started out the size of a pimple). I have been putting antibiotics on it for a week now. However, on Sunday, he got another sore (pimple size) on another part of his leg. At that point, I figured it was impetigo. Since that is contagious and we have the whole vacation thing going on, I figured I better take him in. They just put him on an oral antibiotic.
Keep your fingers crossed that they both are better by the end of the week.
