I thought I would update since I haven't in awhile. We have moved to a better location for Paul to get some exercise by walking to work and for all of us to be able to get out and move around more without having to get in the car. We joined a community garden down the road from us and are able to also walk to the library, a few restaurants and anyone downtown events that are going on. We could also walk to a pharmacy or two and Paul's doctor. We like living here!

We had a birthday party last week which was lots of fun. I didn't take pictures like I usually do (I couldn't find my camera and the cell phones were scattered around) but it was one of the best parties we have had so far.

We have been working with Nika since we moved here to get her moving more. She has been playing outside and willing to go on walks. She has even potty trained since we moved! This is almost a miracle considering the fact that moving is a very stressful event for kids. Paul and I figure this is nothing compared to what has happened in the last 3 years (Nika's whole life!). On the health front for her: she is mostly okay but is fighting a cold that seems to be moving down into her chest more. I will be starting breathing treatments today. This is a time where she might start throwing up from the coughing so we have to be careful.

Pearl is doing okay. Still no word about her elevated numbers. I am happy to see her out and moving around on her scooter and bicycle quite a bit.

That's all for now. :)
