March comes in like a...virus!

It's been a rough week. They say March comes in like a lion. And it did...a ferocious lion....

We began our week with Chloe having surgery on her leg. She was a trooper. (And we love Primary Children's Hospital!) She cannot put any weight on it, so she has become a wheelchair wizard and queen of the crutches.

Next, we come to Meg. She's been out of school for TWO weeks...we thought she was having an asthma attack (thank you, SLC inversion!) But after 2 trips to the Dr and 2 more trips to Primary's to the ER...its looking like RSV. She, too, has been a trooper. We just really appreciate her breathing on her own when possible.

Then, we come to Mati...who had croup. She has not felt well, but again, rarely complained. (as long as she has Baskin Robbins)

And finally, Miss Halle. She has probably become the latest RSV carrier. She has 3 different inhalers, some oral meds, and a million dollar smile with TWO new teeth. Here we are waiting for Dr. Owens to come in. (she also had 2 ear infections this day) Can you tell?

And to top it all off...Mat was in Detroit this week for work.

It was ugly.

Luckily, though, we have Sara and Joey to help keep everyone fed, medicated, entertained, and loved.

And we had a few firsts!!

Halle's first trip to the airport (to welcome home cousin Ty, returning from the Hungary mission)...

Chloe and Mati had their first "real" manicures...

Halle had her first bath in the sink...

And got her first two teeth within two days...

And I braided extensions into Meg's hair for the first time (with yarn even!)

Lots of good firsts. And the kids are slowly but surely feeling better..Mat is back in SLC...and bottom line....we survived one ugly week. Grrrrr!
