These cute girls did projects for the school Achievement Fair. Carli was interested in learning about introverts and extroverts and surveyed people to find out the percentages.
Janie Lou wanted to piggyback on Carli's past Jello experiment, so she had people taste test Jello samples to see if they could accurately guess the flavors.
I love this kid!
Towards the end of February, Logan came down with a nasty bug for a weekend. He started to feel better, but then was experiencing stomach pain for a couple days. He went into urgent care where he was told to get to the ER. I got a babysitter and rushed him there (only to wait for 3 hours to even be seen, while meeting the most talkative and generous with his own pain meds man we didn't want to talk to...) When Logan finally got checked in I went home to relieve the babysitter, only to be awakened at 5am by a surgeon notifying me that my husband was going in for major surgery and they'd call when he got out. Not great for the frazzled, 8-month-pregnant psyche... This is what he looked like after they found and fixed the obstructed bowel that had been causing the pain. The week following the surgery, wherein Logan had to cancel a trip to a conference where he was supposed to present and postponed the major exam he was supposed to begin, was one of our least favorite ever. He couldn't eat or drink anything for days until his body was able to do its thing normally. He was miserable and it was awful watching him.
We did, however, attempt to make lemonade out of lemons by borrowing binoculars to watch the Red Bull Crashed Ice competition from the hospital window. We are still so grateful for the immense and immediate support and help we received during this trying time.
Milo was so tired and exhausts that he fell asleep mid-play, oven mitt and all, while Mom was busy with the events of the week from you-know-where.
