Malin and Will are still sick. Will has now been to the pediatrician twice – the first time, last Thursday, was a regularly scheduled check-up. But since he had fallen a little sick, we mentioned his condition to the doc, and they recommended ‘PediaCare’ cough medicine (which, according to Will, tastes much better than the cherry-flavored robitussin for kids – despite having the exact same active ingredient).

Malin stayed in bed ill most of the day Saturday. Then on Sunday, both of them seemed to feel better. Alas, it was short-lived. After Will sank deeper into a bad cold, a second trip to the pediatrician was in order. This time he was diagnosed with a sinus infection and he is now on an antibiotic. Lovely…

Today both of them were feeling a little better. So hopefully all will be well in the Hump-house come this weekend…

At my office this evening, there arose a rather powerful odor of smoke in the halls, followed shortly by the fire alarm sounding. So hopefully there will be an office to go to tomorrow!

I’m not actually worried: by the time we made it out of the building, there were already two fire trucks on the scene. And by the time I left, there were no less than eight fire trucks, two police cruisers, and one ‘Cobb County Public Safety Command Center’ bus. Surely that is a sufficient number of rescuers to put out nearly any kind of blaze! After all, I didn’t see anything on the evening news tonight about the building burning down…

I still haven’t been able to convince Malin to post something here (admittedly, I haven’t actually tried). And we are ever working (though slowly and unremarkably) on getting the photo gallery straightened out. So stay tuned – updates and improvements are inevitable.

In the meantime, I hope everyone else out there is feeling better than we are (the “royal” we – I personally may feel fine, but I do, in some ways literally, share Malin’s and Will’s pain).
