Just an Update

I had really good intentions of taking and posting pictures last night.  That didn't happen though.

Leonard claims to not be sick, just to avoid getting his temperature taken I think.  He has now had three doses of cold medicine to help him breathe and not cough so much.  Not a single time has he hesitated for even a second to take the medicine.  Who knows what goes through a two year old's head.  Maybe he has a bad memory associated with getting his temperature taken?  Or maybe he's just two... hard to say.  Good news is that his nose is no longer running like a faucet and the coughing has been cut way back. (Side note:  He does not enjoy the nose sucker thing.)

Penny was super helpful at the grocery store today.  She helped unload the cart at the checkout lane and then she picked up the bags and put them back in the cart.  She even carried a bag or two into the house when we got home.  When the kids first arrived she was, often times, mothering Leonard a lot.  In the past week and a half or so, she has toned that down and left it to us.  She just has to know that she's a kid and that's what she needs to spend her time doing... rather than worrying about what he is doing all of the time.

A little over three weeks in and all is well.  At least once we get Leonard's cold and Penny's four cavities taken care of, I suppose.
