Pink..

...is in the future. We had a little fun this summer with some cupcakes. In finding out the gender of our upcoming addition, we gave a friend an envelope with a photo/sticky note revealing the gender of the baby. (no, we did not peak in advance) So, one evening she came over with cupcakes, which included a color filling. We all were surprised and excited to learn pink is returning to our vocabulary. Maddie has been working on names for her baby sister. Here is her current list.... Coco for Coconut Elsa Ana Bella ....do you sense a trend to princess names for some, except for Coco, which she really likes. I guess it's safe to say the baby will be well loved. In other news, MN is breaking more records. I know what you're thinking, after the 8 month winter which set record low temps for extended periods of time, what more is there? Well, the second wettest April on record. And now....breaking records for the amount of rainfall in 1 day and then in a month....which is leading to record breaking flooding....Jeremy and I just shake our head. Luke had a bit of fun a few weeks ago. Turns out a new virus is in town....and Luke caught it. This included 4 days with crazy high fevers. One evening after we hit 104.8 after giving Advil to the little guy, we were told to visit the ER. Luke was a trooper and did great. Amazingly, you can double up on Advil and Tylenol and this virus handled that well. So, for 4 days we used both to keep him from spiking the crazy fevers. It was a long night, but thankfully after chest x-rays and other tests we were cleared to go home with meds. Sorry for such a lull in posting. To put it bluntly, I'm tired. Something says that isn't going away anytime soon. :)
