Mark visits his brothers

We took Mark to the hospital today after school.  He had so much fun with his brothers.  He has not had much time with them because he has been coughing and sneezing lately.  We think it is allergies, but the staff looked at him sternly when he sneezed last time.  It is very important not to take any germs into the critical care center.  A simple cold could be very devastating!  Mark wore his mask most of the time and took it off for a few pictures. 

Mark has been waiting several years to be a big brother.  He already loves them very much and we are proud because he is sensitive to them and cares for them a great deal.   He has given Gantt the nickname "Ducky".  Ducky is the name of Mark's favorite character on The Land Before Time and he chose Gantt to be called that nickname.  B.B. (Baby Brett) may be the nickname for Brett, but we will wait and see what Mark decides.  BTW --  we are still calling them by their given names.
