thanks

Kerri, Thanks for pics of those handsome dudes. I laughed when I saw Eric's picture where he is smiling and squinting at the same time. If that isn't a mischevious look! Marshall looks like he's grown abit. It's good to hear Anthony is feeling better. As far as the book selection...you pick. Polling didn't work the last time. I'd like to see the baby..as soon as I improve. Thanks. Craig.

Here are some pictures of my handsome guys!




Samonella/The Next Book

Hi Everyone, This past week Anthony became very ill and had to go to the emergency room. He spent three nights in the hospital and after many tests we found out that he has samonella. It is most likely from the tainted tomatoes out of California. He finally got to come home yesterday and has spent most of his time sleeping and resting. The doctor said he will continue to feel sick for 4-5 more days. Hopefully he will feel better soon.
I have been asked to pick the next book. I was actually asked quite awhile ago but I have not yet chosen. I am having a hard time deciding. I just finished Eat Pray Love and it was a great book about a woman who travels to three countries to help improve her life. It took me quite awhile - I have a hard time finding time to read these days! I have two books in mind for our book club: The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger and A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Solider by Ishmael Beah. The Time Traveler's Wife is a love story about a man who involuntarily travels through time and his wife whose life takes a natural sequential course. This book is just a good pleasure read. Iloved it! A Long Way Gone is a more serious heartbreaking book about a boy who lives in war torn Sierra Leone. I am thinking maybe we should go with The Time Traveler's Wife just because we just finished a memoir. What does everyone else think?
