Bonjour,
We left the house a little before 7:00 this morning. Lenell followed us
into town. We were headed to look at the vehicle she is considering
buying. We got over there a little early. So, we ate breakfast at a
restaurant.
Our mechanic is out of the country right now. So, Dan came with his
mechanic so that he could check out the vehicle. Lenell took it for a
test drive. She did decide to buy it. Now, she just has to get the
money here. It is a Toyota Land Cruiser.
They weren't quite finished discussing things with the owner of the
vehicle, and it was time for the children's doctor's appointments. So,
the children and I went to the doctor's office in a taxi. Joe met us
there when they finished with the vehicle. We were still waiting to see
the doctor when he got there.
Bonnie went first. She got two shots. She weighs 19 lbs. now and is 27
inches long. The doctor said that she is a little bit above average in
both categories and is growing well.
Gilbert had some type of fungus on his back. The doctor prescribed some
cream for that.

Then, he checked on Danny. He said that we could wait and run some
tests to find out exactly what was causing the diarrhea, but he thought
it would be best to just go ahead and start Danny on medicine for
bacteria, fungus, and parasites. That will take care of the problem,
whatever it is!
After we finished there, we went to a couple of stores. We had
hamburgers for lunch before heading home.
Danny fell asleep in the car on the way home. That was the extent of
his nap today. He and Gilbert both "rested" for a little while, but
neither one of them went to sleep. Bonnie didn't take much of a nap either.
This evening, I worked on totaling things up in the attendance and
offering ledger. We had gotten a little behind on that.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
