Seattle Trip

We are back from our trip.  Morry and I dropped Evan and Noah off in Dallas and went to Seattle for a few days to meet Maya.

The boys were good for Grandma and Papa.  Unfortunately, I got sick and was not able to hold Maya.

I have had fever, aches, and a cough for a few days now.  I went to the doctor today.   It's mostly likely either West Nile Virus or Typhus.  Typhus is common in Austin apparently.  It's carried by fleas and common in areas with dogs like dog parks.  I haven't been to the dog park lately, but we did go to the lake a Barton Springs.  It's possible I got it there, though I don't remember getting bitten.  I may have bronchitis or pneumonia on top of that so the doctor ordered an x-ray.  I started antibiotics, but if I have pneumonia, he'll give me a stronger antibiotic.  We won't know for a day or two.  Neither are contageous, so that's good for the family.

When we got home today, Morry took the boys to Noah's school for the open house.  Then, they went to swimming lessons.  They stopped at Evan's school to see the class lists/teachers for this year.  Evan apparently got a good teacher and he knows 3 other boys in the class already.

I stopped at HEB on my way home to get the medicine my doctor called in. Even though it was about 2 hours later, it wasn't ready for some reason.  They made me wait another 25 minutes so I got grocery shopping done, even though I didn't feel so great.

For dinner Morry and the boys had pasta.

Here are some pictures from our trip.
