Oh I can't wait. They both got ipods and they asked for laptops but I should get one before themI'm not sure I'm ready for everyone to be on the computer all the time. I know it will come but I'm putting if off for as long as possible.

My brother in law put parent lock in Olivia's laptop...
Olivia was doing well in laptop...know more than me gulp....

The parent lock is a good idea. Some of the kids in Brooke and Ethan's class have laptops but I've always been the mom that put it off. They still don't have TVs in their roomsWe have to share technology around here. I figure if we have to share we will do it less. Jon is pressuring me to get a laptop since we have the money but I'd rather go somewhere fun
Oh I lied. Brooke has a TV in her room but it is just for the play station. They never play it since we got the Wii though. I want to take it out but Jon doesn't know where to store it. Oh and we don't have Tivo

Update on Sukie.
No surgery today. Listening to his abdomen on there's been some developments that are causing them to wait to because surgery may not be needed. He's on antibiotic drips and that may have helped. The intestinal block may be infection related.
They now have him on a liquid diet. Of course there is drama about the liquid diet, because some of the staff speak questionable English. However he is eating some of what he's been given.
He's also a bit irritated with his roommate's family. They seem like nice people but are under the delusion that the hospital room is a clown car and are trying to see how many people they can cram into the room. They have very loud conversations, frequently involving the phone on speaker so everyone is shouting and the people on the phone are shouting.
I think his favorite part of today was when people crammed into the room for a prayer meeting. The only thing that might have made the event even more complete for him was if they started passing back and forth sausage rolls over his bed.
I would have preferred if he was in the hospital that our doctor is associated with because it's one of the best in the Chicago area, but unfortunately it was just too far away given the state he was in last night.
However he's very pleased with the staff and the quality of the care he's getting.
He's in very good spirits. I'm exhausted and not going back tonight. I didn't sleep last night and it's snowing now and I really don't want to be driving in the snow when I'm this tired, even though the hospital is not far away.
I guess we'll see how he is tomorrow. Right now I'm preparing to spend New Year's Eve in the hospital.
