Just wanted to let you know that we are all doing well! Jakey has had *no* complications from surgery, and he is still UTI free.

We are going to Great Nanna's 90th birthday party in England soon. Jakey's got new overalls and is ready to party at St. Margaret Mary's church club! Evan certainly will be donning his dancing shoes: he went nonstop at cousin Joshua's Christening last year! We look forward to meeting Joshey's new sibling come June!!

We'll be importing a double stroller (shhh) this time, as a Graco costs literally twice as much over there. Should be fun tooling around the airport with those two laughing at each other!

In regular news, Jake's outgrown his first pair of orthotics (to straighten his ankles). He actually took 3 STEPS on Easter Sunday, without holding on! He's since taken 5! They are small, but when you've got a balloon in each hand and don't want to let go... desperate times call for desperate measures!!

We have a routine kidney doc visit before we go, and we've got 1 more Synagis shot this year (to ward off RSV). Jake's on Prilosec now, compounded; but still has congestion in his nose. Vicks on the soles of his feet actually works when he's a bit stuffy.

Evan's still enjoying school and has taken up karate! He is a natural, although napping before the 5:15 class has proven to be a test of his willpower. Grandma drove him around in the car today. In future, we are ready with OUR double stroller (thanks Wendy) if it would only stop snowing.... the snow is too dense for good play.

Well that's all for now, and thank you for your continued support!!!! Love, Us
