Jonah came home from school one day a couple of weeks ago very much excited because he had won the part of a penguin in his school's third grade's upcoming recital. I guess several kids wanted to be penguins but there were only so many penguin parts available so the teacher drew numbers out of a hat. And Jonah won! The recital was called "Around the World" and the kids sang songs about different places around the world. During each song a few of the kids wore costumes and acted out little skits. It was really cute. Can you spot Jonah? I think he made an awesome penguin.

Good and Not So Good
I know. I know. I haven't updated in awhile. Now I have a gazillion things to cover. Well maybe not a gazillion exactly. Some of the things are good. Some things not so good.
In April we made it to Keeneland which was good. I love Keeneland! But the weather was chilly and rainy which was not so good. We still had a good time.
On Derby Day Caroline had an allergic reaction to the antibiotic she's on for her urinary reflux. She broke out in a rash called erythema multiforme. I had never heard of it. Her hands and feet turned purple and were swollen to twice their size. It was really, really not good. She was extremely miserable. They told us it would last 2-4 weeks but fortunately only lasted four days. Aveeno oatmeal baths are very, very good by the way. 
Jonah has been playing baseball again. He's on the Red Sox. He plays left field and pitcher. He even hit a triple the other day. He's been doing really good.
Also Jonah moved up to Webelo in cub scouts which was very good. He's really stuck with it in scouts and we're very proud of him.
On mother's day part of a tree fell on our house which is not so good. We even have a small hole in our ceiling. It's all fixable though and no one was hurt so it's not so bad. Movey was pretty freaked out. He/she wouldn't go back upstairs for a whole day. It made a memorable mother's day.
Last but certainly not least we found out I'm pregnant again. The baby is due December 15th and appears to be doing well. We think this is good.
