We're having a fairly quiet Sunday here, with gorgeous blue skies and a nice breeze that occasionally gusts enough to remind us we're in Wellington. Sophie & I went out early to cook bacon on the grill, and it was a great morning to be outside (someday soon we're going to sleep out in the little house in the backyard or maybe on the trampoline.) While we were busy making the bacon Josie & Brandie made french toast inside, so we had a nice Sunday breakfast at home.
Afterwards we had a Skype chat with Grandma & Grandpa, then Brandie went to hear our friend Nadine speak at church while I got to spend some quality time with the girls. We jumped on the trampoline, blew bubbles and played on the grass, then spread out a blanket and had our snack on the lawn. The girls kept playing together while I cleaned up, then came inside to watch a show while I made lunch. The girls are napping now while Brandie & I finish up some chores, then one of us (I've been nominated) is going to run out and get stuff for a bbq tonight.
Sorry it's not a terribly exciting post, but we've had all the excitement we can stand for a little while! We're trying to strike a balance between not boring Sophie to death and keeping things low-key for Josie. We've lost a little momentum with our hopes that things were returning to a normal state after learning it may take several months of trial-and-error with the various anticonvulsant drugs to get Josie's seizures under control (and depending on which kind of epilepsy it is, it may not be controllable by drugs.) We're not really looking forward to going back to the hospital tomorrow, but are hoping it's a relatively brief and painless visit that helps move things forward.
Happy Sunday everyone, I'm off to the store!
