A visit from Alan's family and Strep throat

About 3 weeks ago we had a visit from Linda, David, Mark, Mike, and Danny and I got strep for the first time. I didn't get strep from them though. They came into town on Saturday night and a couple of days before that I started not feeling so great. The morning after they got into town which was Sunday I coughed up some phylum that had blood in it and then went to urgent care. I usually don't go to the doctor but because of the blood I thought I should go which is a good thing because it turned out to be strep. I'm glad I went at the beginning of their trip so I could enjoy their visit. Unfortunately later that week Alan and two of his brothers got strep. We still had a great time. We didn't do a whole lot but the 3rd to the last day they were here we went to Corpus Christi.

Preschool

Luke started preschool this week! At first we weren't going to do preschool. I was going to teach him at home and then we would put him in sports or dance class or something else, but a woman in our ward who has taught preschool before started a preschool in her home. The price was right, the amount of days he would be going was perfect and the schedule was good, so we signed Luke up. He goes 2 days a week, Monday and Wednesday, from 9 to 12.
I forgot the teacher had a dog, so Luke freaked out the first day. Once she put the dog in a different room Luke calmed down. It was a struggle to get him to go the next day. Once he was there he had a great day. I hope that being in a home with a dog on a regular bases will maybe help Luke become less scared of dogs. We are so excited for Luke.
