Buddy cousins
Hello everyone! It's been quite a hiatus from the blog while we were all home on break and then Isaiah and I were back home for an extended visit! For those of you who weren't aware, Isaiah was at the ER twice here in St. Kitts in early May and the 2nd visit resulted in an overnight stay in the hospital and no one really gave us a good idea why he was sick, so I took him home to try to figure it out. After being sick for almost 2 months, Dr. Foor referred us to an allergist who did some tests that all came back negative and then diagnosed Isaiah with a sinus infection that hadn't been diagnosed or treated correctly. So...now after being on antibiotics for about 10 days he is symptom free and doing much better! I'd like to thank you all for your thoughts and prayers!
We had a wonderful time when my cousin Kate visited us here in St. Kitts and it was so nice that we were able to change our flights and head home with her in May to get Isaiah checked out. We really enjoyed our time at home. Since we were in Everett for almost 6 weeks it was much more relaxing and we got to spend a lot more time with our close family, which was a nice change. Usually when we're home we run around like crazy people trying to get together with and see everyone! I'd really like to thank our families for helping us out and feeding us while we were home! Your support really means the world to us!

Last week we got to spend the week in Ocean City with my Mom's side of the family and Isaiah and I shared an apartment with my parents and Steve, Ashley, and their girls. It was a really relaxing vacation and I think we were all even surprised how much we enjoyed it! The kids were great....they took good naps most days and went to sleep well most nights and had a TON of fun playing together in between! Most of my pictures this post are from our vacation and you can check out the rest on facebook. I just want to thank my parents and Steve and Ashley for a great week in Ocean City!!!

Josh just finished midterms and did excellent on all his exams, so for his reward, Isaiah and I got to come home to St. Kitts yesterday! Isaiah did amazing on the flights and in the airport for me, so I was really happy. I think Josh is very glad to have his family back and we're glad to be back, although Isaiah is taking a little time to get adjusted back to our life here in St. Kitts. He's doing really well playing with Daddy, but he definitely wants Mommy when he's hurt or tired! Josh is taking it really well that Isaiah needs to get used to Daddy being around again and I think in a few days it'll be like we were never gone!

So...hopefully now I'll get back to my posting to keep everyone up to date. I know that Grammy (also known as Gigi) was missing my posts, so I will try to be diligent in sharing stories and pictures, so you all feel in the loop about what is going on in our lives here on the island. We won't be home now until December, but are very much looking forward to Lynne's visit in August and hopefully my parents visiting in the fall! Love to all....and know that we miss you already!
