Some Updates

Last weekend was Mark's Graduation from UOP Pharmacy school. I am so proud of him and all of his hard work.....it was hard and it was a lot!
It was very hot outside! We were under a tent so we were out of the sun but it still was 100 degrees. Thank you to our family for coming to the graduation and dinner. Here are some great pictures that Britt took.

Look at those pink cheeks. He was so hot, but such a trooper.

We made it!


Caleb has never been the best eater when it comes to eating solid food. Last week I really got concerned because Caleb had complete stopped eating solid foods. He also has just not been himself...not sleeping, coughing, gunky eyes and just irritable. I called the doctor and they wanted to see him, they thought it might be an ear infection. I thought finally, and answer to the problem...so I thought. The doctor checked his ears, listened to his breathing and checked his throat. NOTHING! I told the doctor about Caleb not eating solid food. So they checked him for anemia. Our poor little guy is very anemic. So we have him on a really high dose of Iron. After he takes the drops he smells like a penny. The doctor said that infants that become anemic often stop eating. I hope this might be the answer, but only time will tell.

But not feeling well does not stop this kid.

Door stoppers are great noise makers


Nothing is safe anymore

Caleb,
Hope you found out the source of your eating problem. Your aunts and uncles were also anemic--maybe it goes along with breast feeding. Think Popeye and spinach!
Love,
Nana
