6 month check-up
Brady had his 6 month check up yesterday. He is 22.3 lbs and 30 inches long! He is still in the 97% + of kids his age. It is amazing! He still has a cough and we are going to have to get a nebulizer to help with his wheezing. It is pretty scary but the dr assured us it is safe for him and if we leave it go it might lead to childhood asthma. I have taken all these steps to make sure my kid is as healthy as possible and we have to do this! Grrr Oh well...we will get it fixed and he will be a healthy little guy!

God Bless Casey & RoseMary
An Altona couple was killed in an automobile accident in southern Henry County Monday afternoon.

The car slid into a ditch and slammed into a tree. Empson and his wife Rosemary, 57, were pronounced dead at the scene at 4:41 p.m. The couple’s 10-year-old grandson was also in the car. He was taken to OSF St. Mary Medical Center. Johnson said the boy was not seriously injured in the crash. Johnson said the couple was driving to Geneseo. The Henry County Sheriff’s department is investigating the accident.
