All sorts of visitors!

This week has gone by particularly fast.  It seems like we have had a lot of out of town visitors... which is great!  We've also had a lot of appointments this week too, which has been keeping us busy.  It takes quite a bit more time to get the troops rallied, as I call it, and out the door.

Tristan had his 2 year check up and he weighed 27 lbs.  He was also 35 inches tall!  Lucy weighed in at 19 lbs and was 25 inches.  He is right in the 50th percentile for his height and weight... and well, Lu girl is off the charts.... like not even close!  We did a little comparison of the two kids when they were this age and younger and Lucy definitely outdid Tristan.  He started to plump out a little bit more after this time, so we shall see!  The shots have really taken their toll on poor baby girl today.  She has slept a ton and is getting up more than regular.  So pretty much gets up, eats, gets changed, burps and wants to sleep more.  Because of this I get to spend some more time with Tristan.

Today we got to have some friends visit that I went to high school with.  My friend Danielle is a missionary at the Hopi Reservation in Arizona.  She's been doing that since she graduated from high school.  Its really cool to watch and see how obedient she is to God's calling in her life... and I'm really glad that we could keep in touch all this time!  Another really good friend Beaker came to visit.  He lives in Seattle but was home for a few days.  I would definitely say, besides Gaetan of course, that he is one of my best guy friends... definitely one I've known the longest.  Its always so good to visit with him.  I know that Tristan had a blast playing with him today.  :)

I also like having visitors over because it's not only great to catch up, but I know that the kids like having other people around.  Not only that, but then they can show off all their talents!  I know that Tristan loves playing games and showing off how clever he is.

This weekend is Baz's batizado.  So we will probably be seeing more out of town friends!  I am hoping that we can go... I'm starting to not feel so well.  Tristan had a fever of 103 this week so we haven't been getting a lot of sleep at night.. and then I probably just got whatever he had.  I am going to bed tonight close to 830... which is ridiculous, but I am looking forward to it!

Will keep you updated on how this weekend goes!  Pray for all the people who are traveling and pray that they stay healthy!
