There has been a lot going on with the Birnbaum household lately. Brian has finished up interviewing for a pediatric cardiology fellowship, and now we have to make a decision about our preferences of where we would like to be. Then a computer gets to make the final decision and match us up with one of the programs. I'm not the biggest fan of the process, but it's what we have to do. It looks like right now the top 3 are Columbus, Dallas and Denver.

Brian had interviews in Salt Lake City and Denver last week, and we figured out a way for him to take Andrew with him to Denver so that Grandma and Grandpa Birnbaum could spend some time with Andrew. I think everyone had a great time, although Fritz and Bobbie are probably worn out by the whirlwind that hit them. With Andrew and Brian gone, I enjoyed 3 days of "the life I used to know". It was nice to have some freedom for a few days, but I did miss both of them a lot. I then joined Brian and Andrew last Thursday in Denver, and we were able to visit with some of our good friends we had not been able to see when we were all sick over the holidays. There were new babies to see and dogs for Andrew to play with, which Andrew seems to love. We all flew back on Easter and started back into our regular schedule on Monday.

Today Andrew and I picked up my parents at the airport. Andrew has been a bit leery of them, as I'm sure he thinks I will be leaving him again. We're planning to all hang out this week, and just have a good time. Hopefully Andrew can make it through all of this excitement.
