Caregiver and patient

Alden spent the day with Grandma Lo today. The report? "I watched a movie, finished my book, went to a toy store, had pudding for breakfast, had a milkshake for lunch, and played a game on grandma's computer!" ...We think he might almost be having too much fun!

Recovery

Did this kid just have surgery??

Thank you, Rosenbergs!!

(And resident gift wrappers!)

On the mend

Thank you, to so many of you who have called, texted, or emailed to check in on Alden today! We felt lucky to have such caring and thoughtful friends and family. Alden was in and out of the hospital in less than 4 hours and recovered very quickly at home with the help of Grandma Lois' vanilla pudding and home made mac and cheese (well, plus some Oxycodone). He's doing very well now.

Tonsil free!

Ballista Wars

The cousins used the newly constructed catapults and ballista to shoot marsh mellows at opposing team animal toys. Lucy was declared winner after a hard fought battle. Some of the slow mo replays in this video capture the more difficult calls the judges had to make.

Fall run

Not sure how many more of these we have in our future, but I'm happy to be heading out this morning with my littlest bean while he can still fit in the stroller.
