Nebulizers, Weddings and Tooth extractions

October 10, 2012 by melragent Leave a Comment

Since Sam’s second birthday, things have been a whirlwind around here. Sam got really sick and had to begin a course of steroids and albuterol.  Then, my brother, who currently lives in Peru, arrived for a visit.  His visit was tied to a big family wedding down in Monterrey.  Once Brian left, we had a week of quiet before Peter got really sick, and then, just as he recovered, it was time for Irene to have FOUR teeth pulled.  In between, we have managed a few smiles, a bunch of tears, lots of sneezes, and a number of good photo ops.
