Hi/Lo Thursday

I am really enjoying reading other people's blogs and I realize that there are soo many great bloggers. I have found that some bloggers have weekly posts with themes. For instance, This post is part of "Hi/Lo Thursday" on the Riggs Family Blog. Check out their blog to read everyone else's "Hi/Lo" posts and for a chance to win $100.

So for my first attempt at Hi/Lo...

Highs:
* Sidney is in town! Watching both Shane and Antonio light up when they saw him.. priceless :)
* Antonio and Shane continue to amaze me each day. Antonio, (5th grader) really impressed me with his math skills this week. I am so very proud of him that he can convert fractions into mixed numbers and vice versa as well as turning percents into decimals. I went to help him with his homework and realized... he didn't need my help (i guess that could be a lo.. lol)
Shane amazed me when he communicated very clearly that he needed something to eat. We were driving home and were stopped at the light right next to a Burger King, Shane started making the Uh..Uh.. Uh.. noise and I asked what is it you want... and as I turned around to look at him, he was pointing to the BK sign and then starting signing MORE!! I started laughing, he was clearly letting me know that he was hungry and that he knew they had food... lol! So of course, I just had to take him through the drive through!

Lo's:
* Both boys had difficulty with the changes in weather. It just does a number on their breathing! (Wheezing & coughing, and that really wears Antonio out, especially when he is playing soccer!) Neither have been diagnosed with allergies, but both seem to have the signs of asthma. Even with the 9 year age difference, they both use the same inhaler and spacer that goes with it. ( Though I am sad they have to have the inhaler, it is precious to watch Antonio teach Shane the proper way to use it.)
