Micah’s Better!
 
I just wanted to post a quick blog about Micah before heading to bed early tonight. Micah is doing much better! Thank you for your concern and prayers. He has almost regained all of his two-year old energy and appetite. He woke up early (from Elliot crying since 5:00) with lots of energy... by 8:00 he had pulled out all the diapers & clothes, took inventory of our snack food and tried to get on the computer.  He kept asking for food and juice, so I figured we could try some... so the two of us went to breakfast together and he ate two bananas (and a bit of my tamale and waffles). I was a little concerned that they might come up later -but they didn’t! When we got back to the room Scott and Elliot were asleep, so Micah and I went down to the pool. He was super excited to get in and we played ball and swam for about 30 minutes. Then he kept asking for fries - he remembered from a few days before that they were really good - so, reluctantly I ordered us chicken and fries. We ate them all and he threw a fit when we were all done...
 
So the rest of the day he napped on schedule, went swimming again with Scott, ate dinner with us, watched Bob The Builder (in Spanish), drank milk, took a bath and went to bed... without anything coming up!! He did have a little sick-poops and we have been making him drink Gatorade or Pedialyte; but all in all he is doing much better. My parents just called concerned about Micah and Elliot (and us). It was so good to talk with them! It’s hard not being able to pick up the phone. I guess that’s why we blog so much - it’s our outlet. Anyways, we are hoping for a little extra sleep tonight and put the boys to bed early - let’s hope they stay asleep for a little awhile! We’ll “talk” with you tomorrow. GOOD NIGHT! (The photo above was taken last week in Antigua - We didn’t take any photos today, which I think is the first!)
