Life in the McCormick house

This has been a fairly easy week because we have had a break from baseball.  The schools did their end-of-year testing so therefore they were not allowed to play.  We did have practice tonight since testing ended today.  Austin goes to the doctor on Tuesday for his Echocardiogram.  Last week when I took him to the regualr doctor, I told her about his not breathing episode and she did a chest x-ray to check for pnemonia and saw that his heart looked a little larger than she liked.  She said it was still in the normal range, but that she wanted to get the ECHO just to be sure.  We have no clue still why he quit breathing that day and we may never know but as long as it doesn't happen again, I won't worry about it.  He turned 18 months old the other day and he is already starting down the terrible two's path!  He is ornery rotten for sure, but we wouldn't want it any other way.  Kenzie and Brice are excited to be done with school and head to Ohio for the summer.  As the FRG Leader for Jason's troop I am heavy into planning a welcome home party and trying to get our families as much information as possible so they can plan to welcome their soldiers back home.  It is hard to believe(ok not really) that it is just around the corner.  We are expecting them all home by the end of August!  If anyone is interested in donating a sign for Jason's unit's return go to www.buildAsign.com/troops and they are free!  You only pay shipping and handling.  They have templates to help you design them.  Let me know if you are interested in doing this and I will give you his unit information or whatever you need.  It's a lot of work to coordinate for so many people but it is very rewarding at the same time.  Kurt is doing pretty good, starting to get a little sore, but has three weeks under his belt as of tomorrow so only 4 more to go!  I am glad as I am sure his family is too, that he is almost to the down hill of this treatment and he can get healed up and go on with his life.   
Well I hope everyone is having a good week!  Remember our fallen soliders this weekend and stay safe in your celebrations!
