We took Connor to an ultrasound to Delnor Community Hospital in Geneva to check his kidneys. He had a little more fluids in there than what he should have since he was born, and we checked him at 6 and now 15 months to make sure that this little detail corrected itself. We are SO hoping that this time he will be given a clean bill of health, but the technician wouldn't tell us much. She did say that both kidneys look better than last time (Yeepee!!!), but didn't say simply "fine" just yet. I'm hoping that the specialist will use PERFECT to describe it, and we can just go on our merry way as usual. Of course, before they started with the ultrasound, I HAD to take pictures! Connor was NOT happy, and Brian was a little annoyed, but he obliged for TWO only. Hubbies!!! What do they know about anything??? In any event, when I saw the pictures that I took this evening, I thought, "Maaaan, no wonder why I am so much in LOVE with this kid!!!" Just in case you c...
We decided to go to Springfield for a nice little getaway with the kids last weekend. Brian took the day off on Monday, the kids had the day off at school, so we went to Springfield. On our way, we stopped at Starved Rock, another place I want to go back to one day. Beautiful, beautiful fall colors. We have to go back there to take a hike! I always have been fascinated by Abraham Lincoln. In my opinion, the best president our country has had. Just an awsome person to emulate. And I totally enjoyed our trip in that sense. As soon as I started walking through those streets, I kept thinking: this is where greatness walked. I trully felt very emotional about it. The museums we were able to see, Lincoln's New Salem... all very fascinating. Now, when it comes to the rest of it... Boy, that was frustrating! Now, somebody should have let us know that Springfield is a total ghost town on the weekends!!! Downtown is practically DEAD ZONE during the weekend! We wanted to have a decent meal, b...
I cannot believe the Block party came around so soon! We had a very nice time with new neighbors... These are Maddy's parents, Sean and Linda, and her big brother Steve. Maddy is Coco's BFF. They are always spending the night over, either here or their home. They are a nice family, we're really happy to have them as our new friends. And of course, the bike race... we really need to get Coco to use the bike without the back wheels. She was a little too big for the tricycle! We had our Republican Senator, Chris Lauzen, come and visit. He was so impressed to meet Cesar, he extended an invitation for him to come and visit him to the senate in Springfield. Cesar wants to organize other kids and families in the neighborhood to go as well... And of course, we had our local heros, the firemen. This fireman, Mike, told me my face was familiar, and I told him that one time, as I was pregnant with Connor, they had to come and get me from my bed, down the stairs and to the hospital in...
