A sigh of relief!

Phew!!! Jeff's appointment is over and it went well. They did four biopsies along with the colonoscopy and ruled out the possibilities of some causes such as diverticulitis's. So we are still with a big question mark as to what caused his infection a few weeks ago but we are relieved at the same time. It's been a busy couple of days here! Yesterday we snuck in a short visit to the fair. Last year we went as well and Walter saw this kiddie ride that reminded him of the Chinese Dragon train from Thomas, we thought he would be too scared then, so we didn't have him go on it. Anyway, when he found out about the fair he asked if he could go ride on Chinese Dragon! This kids memory just floors me sometimes, how can he still remember things from when he was two? The other day too he saw a train on the computer and he said "that the kind of train that ran over our money (penny)" last labor day weekend in Wisconsin. Back to the fair the kids loved seeing all of the animals. When Rose E saw the rabbits she said "hop, hop" while signing it. It was also cute because when she saw all the rides she said "whee." They didn't have Chinese Dragon this year but they had a similar ride in the shape of an alligator so Walter was happy with that (his first amusement ride). I will post pictures later.
Today Jeff and Walter went to Depere, Wisconsin to help his brother and family move into a bigger home. Everyday Walter has been asking me what day is it today, especially when he has something to look forward too so Jeff found him a car calender and we have been putting a sticker on it every morning. I've been impressed because just after a couple of days he could tell me the month, the year and the days of the week.
Poor Rose E has been dealing with a fever and didn't sleep well last night, not sure what that's all about but she doesn't have a runny nose or anything to accompany it just fussy. Her new words lately have been "peek a boo," food," and "kiss."
