A nice day…

misc 224edit

I had the day off. Off from school, off from studying, just plain off. It was nice. Actually, it was quite nice. I got to spend the majority of the day with my wonderful wife and son. And I loved it! So what about this picture? I just wondered if I could make anyone jealous with the sight of my supper; a fajita plate all fixed up!

Two more pictures for your enjoyment – not taken today, but I have time to post them today.

At Long Last…..

Anthony 10 mo 001 e

Well, here is a quick photo update on our growing boy! I’m sorry to all of you who have been regularly checking to see if there was an updated post. I will try to not let it go so long be fore the next update.

Anthony is growing up and will be a year old in another month. These pictures are from when he was 10 months old. He is really chattering and almost walking! There are numbers of words that he tries to repeat and it is so much fun watching him discover and learn new things!

Strawberry all over his face but he sure enjoyed it!

Helping husk corn and then for the best part, getting to eat it!

He loves to have books read to him! They are reading The Little Engine That Could.

This is his walker! Pushing it around gave him the confidence he needed to try walking on his own.

Philip has started his Family Medicine rotation. For the next several weeks he is working in a doctor’s office. After that he will spend several weeks in the hospital doing Family Medicine. The doctor he is working for sound very nice. I’m just praying that all goes well for him through out his clinical years and that the Lord would make it clear what kind of doctor he should be.

Anthony is growing up! He has been crawling for over a month now! He got his first tooth through on Father’s Day! For the past month he has been pulling himself up at the table legs and couch. He is really good at walking along things now! The other day he even tried to let go and walk on his own which ended in a little bruise on his cheek. His balance is getting pretty good but not quite good …read more

Quick update….

IMG_5982

Philip has been very busy studying the past three weeks. He takes his exam on Wednesday. It is an all day exam. Please remember him in you prayers as he takes his exam. Thanks to all of you who have been praying and thinking of us! Your prayers mean a lot!

Due to all the studying Philip has had (which is mostly on the computer) I have not been able to update.

We are all doing well and ready to have a little break after Wednesday! The past month and a half has been very busy with getting ready for all the exams Philip has had. Philip begins rotations the end of this month. We are so glad the book work part of school is basically done.

Our sunshine boy!

Anthony is continuing to grow and is learning new things all the time! A few weeks ago he started sitting by himself. He is lots happier being able to sit up and play with his toys instead of always laying down! He is becoming more interactive too! When we hold our hands out and ask him if he wants to come …read more

Spring days and avoiding spring fever…

schedule 1

Maybe you have felt it too – that restless feeling that persitently wants to drag you away from all of your indoor activities. It seems that no matter how much you have to do you just want to put it on hold and go spend time outdoors. It is a bit like a fever, no matter how much you want to feel better, you just don’t feel better; no matter how much you want to forget about the lovely weather outside, you just can’t forget about it. The sunshine, the breeze, the new green of young grass and sprouting leaves are all calling your name, begging you to come outside…

So, what do I do? One of the main things that I am doing to help stay focussed is utilizing a study schedule which the kind folks at the Student Academic Support Service were kind enough to help me with. Some of you may be curious about my schedule, so here is a quick look at it:

I follow this schedule Monday through Saturday and take Sundays off from studying. Each day I have a new topic to study. The topics include: Embryology, Anatomy, Pathology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Immunology, Pharmacology, Neurology, Psychology …read more
