Back at home!







Sorry for the long delay in posting. We have been in the process of moving and at the moment we have occasional internet service. The girls are doing great. We had a little scare last week when Kamryn started running 101.4 fever. We called the after hours nurse, who said if it's over 100.4, we should go to the urgent care clinic. We were fortunate to be five minutes away from a lebonheur clinic. The only thing the doctor found was a red throat and swollen gums, which the gums mean she will be teething soon. Some sort of virus that, with prayer, didn't turn out to be much. She was over it the next day. Taylor never did run fever, praise God. They turned 5 months old on the first! Can you believe that? We can't. They will be walking and talking before we know it.
On the way back from Florida, we stayed in Birmingham a couple of days to visit with some of our friends and Kerri's family, who threw us a great shower. Kerri's mom is helping us bring back all our stuff, and she stayed in Birmingham for a week, and will be coming in tomorrow.
We got to go to church Sunday night for the first time in a while, which was great. It was against doctor's orders, but we let everyone know up front to look and not touch- I think they all understood and were glad to see these precious babies whom they have prayed for all this time.
The Lord worked it out for us to be able to bring their monitors back with us, get set up with a new company, and Kerri's mom will return the old monitors when they go back to Florida the end of the month.
Ted's parents got to come and spend some time with the girls for a few days last week for the first time since July. Needless to say, the girls have changed a good bit since then. Thanks for keeping up with us and pray with us that we may be able to leave sooner than later for Costa Rica- We have a bit of work to do to get the paperwork ready and to get the girls cleared medically. Thank all of you for your prayers.
