Lunar New Year 2007 - Year of the Pig

Here are some pics of our kids from our celebration.  We went to our local Korean restaurant with a couple of other Korean adoptive families.  The food was EXCELLENT, as always and the kids really enjoyed it.

Just finishing yaki man do and bean sprouts waiting for chap chae.



Waiting for their food.



Enjoying bean sprouts and waiting for mom and dad's dishes so Chels can munch off of them.  The don kat su, kal bee and bul gogi was so good!!!

My poor sick girl

She's been sick before, but never this tired.  She laid around ALL day and let me hold her ALL day.  My poor, poor baby girl.  This is just a sinus infection, but bad enough to make her feel like crap.

This morning sick.



Tonight

Why I work for my insurance

$2,704.00 spent on home health care and pharmacy for one synagis visit for Chelsi....mind you this is a monthly charge every month for 6 months.  We pay $0.00!!

The perk to my work.

Yuck STREP!

Chase had a lot of trouble breathing Friday night and early, early Saturday morning so off to the doc's we went.  Fully expecting to hear something about his reactive airway disease the dr tells me has bronchitis and strep!  Nasty.

 So we've spent the last few days with mommy playing doctor, more than mom; administering meds to 3 of our 4 kids.  Took Kaelin to the dr today since she's been running a temp and she has strep too!  Cole has a cough, so it's expectorant for him and Chelsi has a stuffy nose, so it's Ocean Spray for her.  On top of the strep Kae and Chase both have colds, so they're also getting expectorant.  Then there's the constipation for two of them.  That's kind of personal, so I won't say which two. :)  

We have so many meds lined up on our kitchen counter right now it's crazy.  We go through medicine droppers and cups.....too many to count per day.  At least Chase is done with his steroids.

Oy!

We have a new pet in the house

M had a cat that A's not real thrilled about it so since we thought we had a mouse in the garage, we took him.  He's enormous!  The boys all worked on a cat house for him and before Brian had seen him, his plans for the house were WAY too small.

Here's our Kitty 고양이.  Kaelin named him, what else, but "Kitty".

Got milk?
