Polinder's need our prayers

My last 2 days, like many other people, have been consumed with the birth of Baby Polinder. You can read the lastest update on Baby Polinder, on Aunt Melody's blog. I also saw that Tim posted a picture of the little one, on Face Book.

At work yesterday my afternoon started out with a call from Rusty, desperately needing to talk with Norm or Carol. I pretty much managed phone calls in the afternoon and helped out with Norm's patients as he needed to take calls.

Since Norm decided to leave with Carol on Sunday for Thailand, Jan and I spend most of the morning rescheduling patients with Dr. Bjorklund. We all feel that he made the right decision, when he decided to go. Thanks Tim and Melody, for helping him make a decision.

Church Camp-out

This past weekend was our church camp out and both Matt's and us forgot our camera's. These are cell phone pictures that give you a glimpse. Getting ready to go camping is always a big chore and coning home can be an even bigger one. I find, the older I get, the less my body enjoys it. I enjoyed our church family but mostly enjoyed watching the Brennan and Sawyer having a good time.

The boys had a lot of fun on the playground. Brennan loved sliding down the pole and he did it so much that the next morning he wondered why his arms hurt when he raised them up. Sawyer enjoyed walking back and forth on the swinging bridge with his daddy.

This is what we all wanted to do when we got home. However, this is Brennan tonight after being at home from school all day with a fever. He played sooo hard this weekend, riding bike early in the morning while it was still cold, wading into the cold water trying to catch little fish with a net and all the things little boys do. By Sunday, he was coughing and sounding hoarse and by evening he had a fever.

Hosting Family Night

We decided to have a family night since all of Mary's children were here on Saturday except for Nate, Deb and Sylvie. Matt, Monica, Brennan, Sawyer and Jeremiah were only able to be there for a few minutes. Wil's uncle Dan and Irene from Florida, joined us as well. We even brought Mom home from the Nursing Home from 4-8:30.

Here we are all oohing and ahing over the new babies before dinner
