Our Family In Charlotte

Charlotte has been great. We have been really enjoying the weather and time together. Some of the pictures you see are from the US National White Water Center. No, we didn't actually do any of the activities-we just ate dinner. There is a great restaurant there where you can sit outside, eat, and watch others kayak and white water raft. It was a lot of fun. We have also visited lots of malls, which I love.

So, funny story from last night. I'm sorry we don't have pictures but John David refused. So, John David was playing with Jeremiah and decided to roll him over on his belly. And there it was. No "poop belt" like I have seen on some of your blogs (which are hilarious), but almost a "poop shirt!" It was disgusting. Here was the conversation at that point:

Jeremiah: SCREAMING!!

John David: Walking around the room acting like he was going to throw up to get a laugh from me (at the time I thought he was serious so I said...)

Danielle: PULL IT TOGETHER JOHN DAVID YOU ARE A FREAKING SURGEON!!!!!!!! AND HAND ME SOME WIPES!

So the only thing we could do was put him in the bathtub, which the water turned green, b/c yes the poop was green and then drain that water and run new.
We got him bathed and calmed down and then John David had to scrub the poopy outfit b/c we don't have $1.25 in quarters for me to go down to the laundry room and wash it. Oh what a night!

Things you can pray for:
John David: He is going to be working a lot the next 2 weeks so pray for rest and increased strength
Me: I have been struggling with a hurt back for 1 week now. Just when I think it is getting better, it gets worse. It has made taking care of Jeremiah very hard. It hurts just to feed him, hold him, lay him down for a nap, etc. And there are some things I can't do like give him a bath. So please pray that it would heal itself as I can't take a break and let it really "rest."

Enjoy the pictures!

He's so precious!!! He has gotten so big since I last saw him! It looks like you guys are having a great time in N.C. I hope you can take it easy up there and let your back heal. The poop blog is hilarious!!

It started hurting when I was bathing Jeremiah. Dr. Adams says it is a lumbar muscle strain. I'm trying to stretch, take medicine, and take it easy(as much as I can). We are ready to come home.
