Bucky Update: 2/27/13

Hello Family,
The past few days have been a bit crazy.  An hour into owning our new home, Bucky managed to lock us out of it.  No worries though, he called a locksmith and is on his way home (my parent's home).  We will be living with them for a bit longer, our household belongings will be moved into the house on Monday.
After 5 months of having pretty much just our clothing, we have come to appreciate the story of Lehi and his family, leaving their possessions behind and fleeing into the wilderness.  Luckily, our wilderness has included warm beds, indoor plumbing, and electricity.  We are ever grateful for the time we live in.
Chili Bean was sick last week with a cold and ear and eye infection.  And on Saturday, Cocoa Bean came down with it.  (Pink eye and a bad ear infection.)  Have you ever given someone, who doesn't drink out of a cup or bottle, liquid medicine?  It is about impossible!
At Bucky's appointment they took samples to make sure he wasn't coming down with the kids' sicknesses.  His weight has remained constant.  His blood counts were pretty good.  Red blood cells and platelets are still not in the normal range, but they're nothing to be too worried about.  Overall, I think he's feeling okay. Tired, but able to function.  The doctors didn't say much, just that he's doing good, so you probably won't hear too much from me, unless there's bad news.
Thanks for your prayers and love and support.  We are so thankful for you all.
Love,
TJ
