Changing Plans

Hey folks, on major construction you sometimes get major delays. This is the current case in Israel and the new fab so we won't be coming back through Abq in a few weeks on our way to Israel. Looks like it will be late Nov or Dec before we make our move and stop in Abq but the exact date isn't known.

This week the rains have come and the temp dropped. The grass here actually grows faster in the cool fall and spring than it does in summer, what a crazy place. With the Portland dreary winter phase starting and the extension of our stay momma had to find something for the girls. Anita got them right into a gymnastics program the next day. They have been twice. Hopefully we can get some pics of that, Ella loves it!



Hanna is sick and had us in the ER again 2nd time in 2 weeks at 3am this time. She gets a cold and respiratory distress. Handling the inhaler on a toddler and getting her to take the medicine is elusive to us so we go to the ER for the nebulizer (vaporizer type) treatment. Apparently it is supper critical the timing of the spray and her inhalation even with the chamber. Imagine holding down a screaming kid who takes micro second inhales to make 15 second long exhales. Then kicking and twisting but keeping the mask on her timing the inhaler spray. The doc says sit on the floor legs out, lay her in between your legs with arms under your hamstrings and head squeezed in between. Ella doesn't like to watch the torcher of her sister. But she will be better, its all treatable.


Enjoy these pics of our trip to a park a few weeks back.
