Progress...... I think!!!

Well it has been what almost three weeks since Gary and Morgan returned home from Africa with our two newest additions.. I say newest because we have learned never to say "last" additions. Gary said they had a conversation with many on the plane... everyone agreed you don't say "this is IT" on the plane ride home or soon after getting home. (Good plan) Gary will be the first to admit you should not ever say things like, "We are NOT getting a little boy with Down Syndrome!" that just may not be God's plan and your next son will be blessed with Down Syndrome... His name is Peter... :):):):) Then you should also not say "We are NOT going all the way to another country and spending all that time and money to get another child" comments like that will get you TWO children from another country... (right Mike?)
So those of you reading this, well you should just smile and say yes that's right... it would be best not to pause to long on the thought or go to www.reecesrainbow.com and look at all the beautiful children (especially those blessed with DS) who need forever homes...

Ok the adoption plug has been made now... an update on the kids.. Oh my Camille is getting more beautiful everyday.. perhaps because all he pox scabs are about gone so we are able to get a comb through her hair. Her ears must be getting better because she is starting to sing and smile more and more each day. She is quite the opinionated little one.. (she'll fit right in) she is on the verge of walking. We have a little song we sing to her and in a very concrete stand she bounces up and down on her knees. Then falls down but she gets back up and bounces some more. Yesterday Maggie patted her on the shoulder and said Maggie's sister...... that was very nice... Peter also is able to pat them or touch them and smile now. He has been having his own battle with allergies lately so is not 100% either. Then there is little Mr. Henry.. he has now been on 6 days of antibiotics and every four hour breathing treatments.. he still sounds like he smokes and today his fever played bouncy ball with me and would be up then not then up then not. We will go to the pedi on Fri and get an xray to see if his lungs look better. If not it would seem to me that a little trip to the kid pokey to get some IV meds would be in order.. he is still so happy though.. wow so happy..
My battery is running out so bye for now'
Blessings to you all
