Glorious Apples! A Fall Harvest!

Yesterday, the girls and I had fun making apple crisp and caramel apples while watching Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet in Sense and Sensibility! Great memories! Great treats!

Enjoy the glorious fall harvest of apples while making great memories!

Tombs, Pharoahs, The Nile, Mummies...

Egypt has been the theme! We have had fun so far making a salt map of The River Nile to turning E. into a mummy (Charmin!) Soon we will be building a pyramid with sugar cubes and writing messages using hieroglyphs!

A Day in the Life...

Is Darth Vader in the House?

Our dear little R. has suffered from not being able to breathe well through her nose for most of her 2-1/2 year life. It has been joked that she sounds a bit like Darth Vader! :-) But all joking aside, this has made sleeping very difficult for R. because she actually has moments when she stops breathing and jolts semi-awake to take a breath. This very disturbing to listen to. Supposedly, little R. is not even able to reach REM sleep because of this pattern. Thus, she can struggle with being somewhat irritable during the day. So, we are going to have a sleep study done so the doctor can decide just what is going on and what is the best way to address this problem. So, we would appreciate your keeping our little girl in your prayers. We pray for wisdom for the doctors as well as they determine what to do. Perhaps we will soon get Darth Vader out of the house! :-)
