Just Catching Up!

What a week. We have been homebound most of the week with Beckett. He was sick last Saturday morning with a virus and his fever finally broke on Monday evening, only to re-appear on Wednesday evening along with cold symptoms. I took him to the Dr. on Thursday and he tested negative for everything he was tested for, just had a cold and absolutely no energy. His fever broke on Thursday evening and he has continued to improve, although he has very little appetite. He has lost 6 or 7 pounds in the last week and still isn't back to normal!

Grankaki and Auntie Mame came over on Thursday to bring items for the yard sale and to help us get organized. Thanks for all of your help!

Here is a picture of B and H being silly with their crocs. They were trying to make it look like they had short legs.
This picture is for Aunt Susi. Remember this sweater? It is a "Smartwool" brand sweater that she bought at REI. It is a women's XL. Unfortunately, Susi accidentally threw it in the washer and dryer and it shrunk considerably! So, she gave it to my sister in law, Kathy, bc she is the only person that Susi knew that might be able to wear it. Well, last week, Kathy sent some things for the yard sale and we found this sweater in the bag. This is the same XL sweater, but it looks like Kathy might have shrunk it a little, too, because now Helen can wear it! She should stay nice and snug next winter! :)
And finally, the River Dogs played this morning after they had their team picture made! (Beckett is on the front row in the middle.) He had to miss 2 games last week while he was sick, so he was glad to get back out there today! He had two singles and a double and made another great stop at third combined with a good throw to first! The River Dogs finally won a game today! Extra innings....20-17! What a fun game! So glad they won! They are a great group of boys!

Oh my goodness, I am still laughing!! I accidentally did shrink that sweater again. I learned the hard way that you can shrink a wool sweater even more!! Sorry Susi. :( Loved the pics. Hope Beckett is feeling better and I will see you in a few hours.
