Just a quickie update. The kids have been not feeling well for about a week...coughs mostly. They're on the upswing, so they're starting to act like themselves again.

Joe and I have decided to try something rather...unusual in today's day and age. We were never thrilled with our service from Time Warner Cable, so we decided to switch providers. While discussing who to go with, it occured to us that we don't really watch a lot of TV. The kids don't watch it much either (usually only Cash Cab, Dirty Jobs, and How It's Made), so we starting tossing around the idea of not having it anymore. We've decided to try it for a month, and see how it goes. We've not had it for a few days already, and we've already noticed that we get more done, and the kids seem to enjoy it...instead of plopping down in front of the Discovery Channel at night, we've been playing Legos, doing puzzles...basically just hanging out together, and it's been really nice.

We had some tests run on Lexi, and it doesn't appear that the cancer has spread to her lungs, but we're waiting to hear back from the radiologist. It also doesn't appear that the surgery will be as much as we thought, so we think we'll be able to swing it.

That's all for now...I'll post pics next time!
