the beginning of the end?

Jack is having his tonsils removed. They are huge. He is also having his adenoids removed at the same time. They are some how blocking his sinuses.
Surgery is scheduled for November 11. He has to stay overnight due to his age. They prefer to do this surgery on children over 2.

Hopefully after the surgery, Jack can breathe better, sleep better, stop snoring, and stop with the sinus infections!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was promised an update

but the husband never got around to it. So I shall.

I hate to do these quickie up dates but it's all I have. Sorry guys.


1. Took Jack to the doctor last Wednesday. After the doctor listened to his lungs she sent him for a chest xray and voila! Pneumonia.

2. A very painful steroid inj was admin but did one hell of a job making my boy better.

3. Going to see ENT (again) this week to have Jack's enlarged tonsils checked out. We've known (rather PJ knew) they were enlarged for a while. Now he may have non-existant tonsils.

4. Went to Bell Buckle. It made me tired. Got a cool planter and ate kettle corn.

5. I got to see my aunts (the twins) for a few minutes while we were there.

6. Went for a long walk through Barfield Park on Sunday. Pretty sure Jack's lungs were already back to better shape than mine.

7. My job is trying to kill me. Slowly. One task at a time.

8. Badem's spinach dip is the best ever.

9. Went to the pumkin patch. It was cool.

10. New baby Sparkman will be here no later than 10/29!

It's not a link....

Please refer to page 8 of your handbook

From now on you can find the Jarboe family at www.jeanandrachel.com. That is, if I can force Jp to make regular updates. We used this blog in the past and I really liked it, I just never learned how to use it.

Now for a quickie:

1. Jack is in a toddler bed. The little ninja learned how to face plant out of his crib. After the first time it became every time and we had to put him in a regular bed.

2. Merissa and Bobby are expecting! The cat is out of the bag and a bun is in the oven! (I actually hate that phrase but can't help myself).

3. Kris has his own portion of the website. Stay tuned in for exciting updates from the Technicolor Cheese Wedge.

4.Kat and Eric are expecting Ms. Maggie any day now and Miranda and Marshall have just a few weeks to go!

5. Halloween home pics are coming up. This is our first Halloween in the new casa and I had fun decorating.

6. Jack is going to be a cowboy and a chicken for Halloween. Why not have 2 costumes?
