Corey did GREAT Today

Carrie really should be providing the update, but I've got the photos. First of all, Carrie and Corey dropped Brody at school this morning while I was working. They went on a 1.5 mile "nature walk" and Corey even got to help someone reel in a fish!

At the MRI, he refused to use the sleeping gas and opted for the IV in the hand instead. Carrie said he was a very brave boy all day! He came home with a new football from the hospital and got a new Matchbox car for his baby brother.

Tomorrow we're going to a pumpkin patch (which sounds more like an amusement park than the farms we were used to in Lawrence).

We'll be sure to take lots of pictures!

What a trooper!

Today was Corey's dentist appointment, and Carrie said they took X-rays, cleaned his teeth and even did a flouride treatment ... not exactly counting his teeth, like they did last appointment (the dentist was impressed Corey knew how many teeth he had).

Thursday he has his MRI. No food until afterward, no liquids after 10 and they have to check in at noon. We'll probably watch the Transformers movie we rented again tomorrow night, maybe go to a pumpkin patch Friday and head to Flagstaff this weekend. Hopefully Corey's week off isn't too bad!

Sinclair Saturday morning

Corey had his first Mini Mites practice this morning and had fun. They did the usual stuff (freeze tag, jumping over lines, etc) but also got to play some games with the pucks and goals. Corey particularly enjoyed being goalie. Brody was disappointed he didn't get to see the Zamboni.

Afterward we took a family trip to Costco (Brody says, "I LOVE waffles. I LOVE animal cookies. I LOVE juice.") and then had lunch at In-n-Out ... always a crowd-pleaser.

Tonight we're going over to the Evahneko's for Dillon's birthday. Have a good weekend!

National Walk to School Day

Guess what we did this morning! As you can see from our shadows we were kind of early. (Lately Brody has been saying, "Good morning, Sun." when he sees it. Of course, he doesn't like it in his eyes, and when he moves to the shade he says, "Bye bye, Sun. Leave Bobo alone."

Day 3 Without Mommy

Not that you can tell with the dimples and all, but this is Brody's "sad face." Of course, it's hard to be sad after a two-hour nap while eating animal crackers. Not much to report today. We had chicken marsala for dinner (Corey actually liked it). Tomorrow is "Walk to School Day" at Finley Farms, although I'm not sure about the logistics of dropping off Brody too. We can't wait to see Carrie tomorrow night!
