July 2nd Week

Tanner finally came home Sunday, but wanted to spend the night with Mamaw and Papaw so we didn't get him back til Monday. He has spent the rest of the week being bored. I think he became so accustomed to having Brooke around and having the undivided attention of grandparents that coming home was somewhat of a disappointment hehe. But finally on Thursday, Drew was back too so they can keep each other busy.
Took Tyler to the liver specialist again and we were told Tyler has Gilbert's Syndrome, which is nothing really. It's a hereditary condition in which the liver is "slow". It doesn't filter as quickly as most peoples so sometimes a back up of bilirubin can happen in the blood causing some mild jaundice. This condition never turns into anything bad, and there is nothing to fix it. It's just good to know you have it down the line in case anything else ever happens to you and you'll know that you're prone to jaundice. The doctor told Tyler - "see you back here when you're 50". So I guess we're good to go.
It's been a pretty uneventful week of rest. Nothing special has happened really so I have not even had the camera off the dock. Shame on me again! So I will just give a "nutshell" report of our week:

- taught Tanner how to play electronic battleship.
- Tanner taught me how to use the clubpenguin.com. it's actually kinda cool.
- Tyler went to a "slip-n-slide" party at the church. They built the biggest slip-n-slide I have ever seen in my life. Half a football field long I'd bet.
- cleaned Tyler's room, cleaned out the closet, etc.
- watched "Hide and Creep" and "Date Movie".
- hooked up cable in my bedroom to my new TV
- took Tyler to El Sombrero to eat with friends on Thursday.
- went on a small shopping spree at JCPennys. Got Rusty shoes and some shirts. Got Tyler 3 pair of jeans for school. Got me some really cool stuff for nearly nothing off the sale racks.
- tried to figure out if Dale has West Nile Virus or not. I think he does. Who knows.
- mowed grass and weed-eated again on Friday.
- Brooke spent the day with us on Friday and had a good time playing with Tanner and Drew.

The coming week will bring mine and Tanner's birthday, so should be a good week for pictures.
