Spring break and Shots, round 10 and round 11

Ok, took a little break....   here's what's been going on.

For Spring break, Cameron and I left on Sunday afternoon after church and went to French Lick to meet the family for a couple nights.  Cameron, Meredith and Natalie (Will's brother's kids) had a great time playing together.  They swam, rode go carts, bowled and rode ponies.





Once we left there on Tuesday morning, we drove about 3 hours and visited one of my college room mates, Melissa and her family.  She has 4 kids so there was a total of 5 kids between the ages of 6 and 10.... and only one girl.  The kids had fun together...  (Kris was playing computer games so he isn't in the picture)


We stayed with them Tuesday night and left Wednesday about 8pm to drive about 2 hours to stay with Will's Aunt Shelia.  On Thursday, we went to pick up Cameron's great grandmother and had a picnic with her (on her front porch).  Then we went back out to the farm where Cameron had help flying a kite and also got to fish in the lake.  He caught several bluegill and the funniest thing... he hooked one under the fin somehow! 

We came home in time to give round 10 of Cameron's shots on  April 2nd.  Usual headache and not feeling well first thing Saturday morning, but wasn't too bad.   Sunday, April 4th of course was Easter.  Cameron and I went to church and really enjoyed it.  We came home and got Will and went to Golden Corral to eat.  We left there and went to the Lexington Cemetery.... yes, a cemetery.  That place is more than a cemetery, it's also a place where people go to take pictures, feed the ducks/geese/koi and just relax.  The flowers were BEAUTIFUL!  Trees and everything was in full bloom!





This week was very nice!  Our high got up to about 84*F!!   Cameron got off the bus both Monday & Tuesday and stayed outside until time to come in and eat.  He played with some kids from the neighborhood and had a lot of fun!  It caught up with him by Thursday as he took a 3 hour nap after school.

We gave round 11 of his shots tonight (April 9).  He said it made him sick at his stomach to just think about the shots.  He did ok and promptly fell asleep in MY bed watching boomerang.  That kid is heavy!   There is no lifting him and taking him to his bed anymore.... he's gotta walk!    Speaking of him being heavy.... it's hard to find "Fatty tissue" to give his shots in!   He is solid as a rock!  We gave up trying the abdomen.  We do arms (tonight) and legs (last week).

Cameron's follow up appointments are next week in Cincinnati.  We are staying overnight in a  hotel since the appointments are at 9am and 10 am.  Hotel has an indoor pool so I'm sure Cameron won't mind.


Till next time!!
