The Dastrups would appreciate any prayers that you could send our way today. Brigham is currently in Philadelphia taking Step 2 part 1001 or whatever it is of the boards today. After today, he is DONE with everything here at Hopkins-- as long as he passes. So he could use some prayers-- especially because he didn't get much sleep last night due to a fiasco that we'll have to describe another time. Also, Jacob, who was completely healthy 2 days ago, might be in the hospital by tonight. He came down with Publisha cold yesterday, and today he's wheezing and having a lot of trouble breathing. I took him in this morning, and our pediatrician said that if it were anyone else, he would send them to the hospital. As it is, he put Jacob back on steroids, and if he's not improved by about 2 pm, we're headed down to Hopkins. So please pray that he will get better soon! Thanks! We appreciate your support!

Poor little Jacob. He doesn't deserve to be sick yet again. :-( Package up his cold and send it to Grandpa G. I'll take it for him. Breaks my heart. I have all the confidence in the world in Brigham. Keep us informed on Jacob and with how Brigham feels he did. When do you find out the results of these board exams?

Just a random thought...could Jacob pick up his bugs at whatever place you go to do these medical tests (allergy)?

Jacob didn't go with me to the allergy clinic. My guess is that he picked it up at the pediatrician's office when he went there on Tuesday to have some blood work done. Unfortunately, we can't keep him in a bubble.

Poor little Jacob. After reading that blog it makes anything I felt like putting on the blog seem unimportant.
I'm not worried about Brigham-- he'll pass with flying colors like always
You guys are in our prayers

Cambrie, it doesn't have to be important. It's just nice to hear everyone's experiences, no matter how insignificant.

Oh, I hate to hear that Jacob is struggling again. I have been there when he did that and the memory of it is seared in my brain forever! I will definitely pray for both of them. But Brigham will do great.

Ditto to what Kim said Cambrie. Helps me to feel not so far away to get little updates from you kids regularly! Keep em coming!

I'm no longer "un-officially engaged". That's right. Your teasing and blunt hinting is old news. You all know the big news. No definite date yet, but it's looking like beginning to mid-July. *sigh* Long time. It actually works out great to do it then for when Katie's parents come home and Brigham's school stuff. I told Christa I'd put up pictures on here, but I realized I don't actually have many pictures. Mom and Dad have a few. These are a couple of pictures Pictures taken with my phone today. Better pictures coming, I'm sure.

Kiera still loves her 2 blankies. She also loves dressing up and especially loves "pretty yadie shoes" (dress up shoes). We took Kiera hiking in the foothills behind our house last week for a study break for Steve. She liked it. I think she is going to LOVE hiking in the woods someday.She was 100% potty trained before albaturkey and is now 100% un-potty trained again. I'm starting my last set of clinicals this week so I'm not going to start up potty training agin. Looks like we'll just have to continue spending $100 a month on diapers for a while. Lydia has been our little spit-fire lately. She is seeking revenge in grandma's behalf on her mommy. She loves unloading everything and getting into everything. Steve thinks she is just as opinionated as I am and thinks we are in for a difficult daughter. We'll see. I introduced the hose to her this week which she loved. I just finished our annual "NOW" (Nelson Organization for Women) convention. It is...
