Cute little Xadia.

I am totally sleep deprived right now. Xadia is cutting 2 bottom teeth. For the most part she is in good spirits but at times she cries in pain and it breaks my heart. Xadia has impecable timing because tomorrow we are going to the dentitst. It will be McCabe's first time. I hope he does well. He still has some separation issues (which is normal but I really want him to cooperate).

I had a big scare over the weekend, my dad was in the hospital with pneumonia and strep. He was released but the doctor found some health issues in which he would like to run some tests and see if my dad needs a pace maker. It is hard dealing with the aging process and having loved ones decline in health.

We have been housing missionaries for over 2 years now and have enjoyed every moment of it. Speaking of missionaries, Tim was just called to the stake high council and to oversee the missionary work. He is very excited and is ready to jump into this calling with full force. However, back to housing the missionaries (sorry about the side track). Along the way, we get to meet some very notable young men. One of which is Elder (Richie) Gittings. He was one of our first missionaries. He is now finished serving an honorable mission and gets to return home. However, before leaving he was able to join our family and some other missionaries for breakfast. What a fun time we are having with these valiant servants. Our kids also love them. I love hearing McCabe say, "hi mission-maries," as they leave in the morning to get into their car.

Wow I didn't know you housed them. You are awesome people. And best of health to your pop. So scary when they do that to us. You included years back, so glad you are doing well. Keep the faith the teething will pass...we are finally sleeping again through the night. It's been a long year plus 9 months of being prego since I've had some good zzz's.
