Trinkets from Zach


Yesterday we got a package from Zach!
The boys liked the duct tape closure.


In one of his phone calls, he told us he would be sending some trinkets.
The tiger, elephant and camel all open on hinges.

Oh look, it's my boys!
See the resemblance?


Little marble cups


A set of Arab nesting dolls!

I always think of nesting dolls as a Russian thing, so this was a neat surprise.

And the turtle Brianna is holding has a hinged opening, too.

Poor Bri. She wasn't feeling so great yesterday (hence the less than flattering picture) and this morning woke up with CHICKEN POX! How unfair is that?? She had them a year ago! She hugged her friend with pox 4 weeks ago and didn't break out when Samuel got them. So bummed for her. She was doing okay most of today, but this evening has a tummy ache and is pretty miserable.

Eli woke up with them, too. Actually, I wasn't sure about him at first, just a couple spots, but as the morning wore on, he developed more.

Looks like another 2 weeks of quarantine for us.  I really, really hope that if Furby is going to get them, he gets them soon so we can get it over with.
