Update on the Dastrups!

But, not from a Dastrup. I spoke to Christa last night briefly. It doesn't sound like we will be hearing from them any time soon, so she said to go ahead and post their news on the blog. Christa is having her turn with Mastitis, currently. She needed to go to bed soon when she called, so we didn't talk for long. Brigham's folks have been there for a week, and they both left Saturday (?) for home. Claudia's dad is in the process of dying, and it looked like it might be this weekend, but when she got home he had rallied enough that after her visit with him, she flew back to help Christa more, which is great of her. Those breast infections are really nasty. Thankfully, it isn't really all that common if you can breastfeed normally (without pumping or using a sheild-Christa has needed to pump more than the normal way of feeding...) Claudia will stay 1 more week, and then Christa will be on her own. I know she's a little nervous about that transition. She says that her kids have 1 week break from school in March (that will be a challenge). She is going to take Benjamin out of school for the month of March because, there is a school bus that will pick up Jacob, but not Benjamin so she would have to take him to school and pick him up every day, which is something she isn't ready to add to her routine with a new baby.

Ty is growing fast too. The outfits that were too big for him 1 month ago fit him great now. She says that he just keeps getting cuter every day (I say PROVE IT: WE WANT PICTURES!!).

As I said it was a short conversation: Maybe 10-15 minutes. So that is about it.
Kim flys out towmorrow for So California for a consortium down there he is involved with. He will fly home on Saturday. He plans on visiting Cambrie and Co on Friday night, which means he gets to love on those cute little ladies without me! :( I will miss him, but it is only 5 days, not the 6 weeks that it was when he'd go on a "business trip" in England, so I can handle this.
