      • Rachel's so cute!
        09/28/07
        Luke was teasing Rachel about all the boyfriends she seems to accumulate at school. He said, "That's it Rachel, I don't think I can let you go to school anymore."
        And in her Rachel-voice she said, "Noooooo." :)
        She said it with a big smile on her face beca

      • Wednesday already?
        09/26/07
        I'll have to update more later, Luke threw his back out on Monday and we're all busier than normal.
        In the meantime I will cheat and used Rachel's teacher's e-mail to update on how school went on Monday:
        "Hello...Rachel did great yesterday. It is so nice, now that

      • Busy weekend
        09/24/07
        We made a quick trip to Duluth over the weekend. We went down Friday and had a great time hanging out with friends for the evening. Then on Saturday Luke helped my dad (and grandpa and uncle) reroof my parents' house. That took 12 hours and then we drove right home. That was in just enough

      • Thursday school day
        09/22/07
        I didn't get a chance to talk to Kari after work on Thursday so I'm updating from the communication notebook. ;)
        "Rachel was smiley this morning, fixed her hair then off to school. Rachel seemed to enjoy herself. She colored a book about fall and was very vocal during occupati

      • First Day of School!
        09/17/07
        I'll update more later (with a picture even...) but today I took a half day off and brought Rachel to school this morning. She had great day and was awake the entire time and hardly needed any suctioning. What a big difference since last year!

      • Little better
        09/13/07
        Rachel didn't go to therapy on Wednesday since she was still sick. She's feeling a little better and slept well last night.

      • Cold
        09/12/07
        Rachel's cold is doing okay but she only slept 4 hours last night and her heart rate is up which I'm never excited about but her oxygen levels are fine so as long as we don't let the gunk in her lungs sit in one spot too long she should do just fine. That's where her vest treatm

      • Wheelchair day
        09/11/07
        On Monday Kari, Rachel, Kaleigh, and I (all the girls again!) went up to Hibbing but instead of therapy Rachel got off easy. We met with all of her therapists and her medical supply company and talked about what she'll need for her new wheelchair. The one we've been using lately is a dem

        09/09/07
        On Sunday we went for a family walk and ended up at the park. Rachel went down the slide with Luke and rode on the tire swing with me. We were figuring out ways to add a swing to Hudson's fort that Rachel would be able to play on. Now that I'm thinking about it, I think I'll google

        Rachel's a little chunkier, she's gained 5 lbs! I have to e-mail the nutritionist and see if she wants to continue with the increased feedings. I also left a message with the neurologist's nurse (who is awesome) that the Klonopin doesn't seem to be cutting it for her now that h

        09/05/07
        Today Kari and I took Rachel to the library. It was a bit of a bumpy ride but she seemed to enjoy some of it. We got really good at finding paths that wouldn't jostle her too much. Then we all picked out a big bag of books for the nurses to read to Rachel over the next few weeks. On the way

      • Labor day weekend
        09/04/07
        We had a nice weekend. Luke worked on Hudson's tree fort (sans tree) and Rachel even got to go in it! Rachel was up late that night so when Linda came in at 9:00pm Luke and Rachel were hiding behind the couch. As soon as she closed the door behind her they popped up and "suprised"
