Shots, IR-3 Visa pckets, and First Driving Experience

For the second day in a row, Levi has had a temp related to the immunizations he received on Wednesday. At least today his temps were not as high as they got to last night. Please pray that he is over these by tomorrow. I'll have to remember this for the next time we have shots.

Today we received a notice in the mail from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service that they have received Levi's IR-3 visa packet. I have to submit evidence that I saw him prior to his final adoption within 30 days of the date of the letter.

Rachel got to drive solo for the first time today. She drove to the meat market to get something for me, the bank to deposit her checks, and shopping with a friend. The last one took place after work so I stayed up until she got home. This is definitely a new experience for me.

Hi Tracy! Evidence? Wow... gonna have to tell me how or what that entails! Thanks for the advice on Benadryl - it definitely kept Anson's nose more dry and he slept better! I hope he gets over it soon!

Can you believe how time flies? Look at Levi! He's so cute!!
