Nicholas got a good 10 hours sleep last night. He woke up ready to
go to the hotel to go swimming with his cousins. We laid around and
wrestled all day until mom got here at 11:30.He was laying on my bed
watching the wammy game on GSN, it is his favorite. He gets so
excited when it comes on. Please pray for the little swimmer
Nicholas and his health.

Nicholas came over last night after his big brothers football game.
We ate and went to bed. He woke up ready to go at 6 am this morning.
He was singing, dancing, and wanting to play the 360. He is so cute
and his para-influenza is almost gone. Please pray for Nicholas and
his health.

Nicholas wanted to come back with me from the long day of taking
pictures. We got up early to ride his scooter and went back to
Orofino in time for school. He was getting a little sick but still
singing and dancing. Later after school he got sicker and got a
fever. We all went to ER and all of the tests were run. It looks
viral and nothing we can do but wait it out. He got para-influenza
and a little croup. He was pretty sick, but still a good sport about
the doctors visit. This came on fast like all of his sicknesses but
he is resting now. All of his numbers look good so we just wait it
out. Please pray for Nicholas and his health.

This morning Ed Yates and Crew came to Orofino
to do a update on Nicholas.
Ed from the KSL channel 5 News in Salt Lake City , Utah has not
seen Nicholas for a couple years now and flew in to do a update on
Nicholas and the cure for CEP. Ed was blown away on how much
Nicholas has changed and how grown up he is. We all shot video for a
couple hours and then they had to catch a plane back to Utah. The
update will air the first Monday in November at ten o'clock as they
did while Nick was in transplant. It was very nice to see Ed
again and spend some time with him this afternoon. Nicholas really
likes Ed and one of his favorite show was the ten o'clock news while
we were in Utah. Ed got his usual hugs from Nicholas and off they
went.
Thanks to Ed and everyone in Utah for all of the support and
friendship we have received from them in the last 3 years. We will
keep everyone informed and get a copy of the show for Nicholas'
website.
Thanks again, we miss you!!

It
is Dads Birthday
Last night Nicholas and I carved the pumpkin that we picked up at
the pumpkin patch yesterday. He had fun even got his hands dirty in
the slippery stuff. After we lit the candle and it was glowing in
the dark I said it was scary and Nicholas replied, "No daddy,
it is not scary" He is growing up so fast. Please pray for our
little Nicholas and his health.

Nicholas and
I stayed home most of the day and finally decided to get up and go
out about 12:00 this afternoon. We went to Wal-Mart for a motorcycle
toy and then off to ride his scooter. We stopped by the shop for
some playhouse disney computer time. I also spent the morning
setting up his Thomas Ultimate Train Set in the living room. He
loves it, it is pretty cool. Please pray for Nicholas and his
health. |

Nicholas
came down for the weekend and he was so excited that he was finally
able to get the DVD game "Press Your Luck" at Hastings. He
loves that show on GSN and has asked for it all week. He is getting
so good on his scooter and his balance id great. I will take him to
school on Monday and I think it will be his first day on his own:(.
Please pray for our little scooter boy Nicholas. |

Mr. Scooter
Boy. He is really getting good and tearing it up on it. He loves to
ride it. It will probably be next summer and he will start to ride
his bike and do the same on it. That is scary. Please pray for
Nicholas and his scooter health. |
