J's class made graham cracker 'gingerbread' houses Wednesday. We had fun and ate lots of m&m's. :)

We are on the final countdown to Christmas now, and praying we can get them both healthy at the same time. A week or 2 ago it was Justin and his ear infection, for which he refused to take his antibiotics, but miraculously it cleared up on his own. Tuesday we were at the pediatrician with Lindsey having bronchitis, but J checked out perfectly. Tuesday night he started coughing. Thursday night I kept checking to see if his lung was on the carpet. Thankfully he didn't actually cough it up, but it certainly sounded like it. Friday back at the pediatrician - Lindsey sounds good, Justin's full of green goo. Thankfully the ped didn't bother to write a prescription since J won't take it. He just gave him a shot of antibiotics and a shot of cortisone. That should clear him up, we hope. He seems a bit better today.

Oh, and my best Christmas present this year - good news for all of us in the FX world. They are beginning testing on 2 promising new drugs! If you haven't read about this - go to Time magazine and search fragile X - or just Google a bit and you'll find it - or let me know, and I can post the articles here. Anyway, I've already made my wish list for next year - good test results and approval for the drugs, so we can try them. :)

Anyway...I'm off to finalize my grocery list for Christmas Eve dinner and finish wrapping stuff. If I don't post again prior to Christmas - or even if I do - I wish all of you a very Merry Christmas.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
