Sick :(

Oh my, poor little Winry got sick sick sick this last week!  She ended up throwing up Tuesday and Wednesday night, and didn't go to school from Wednesday on.  I don't really think she has a stomach thing, maybe just coughed too much in the middle of the night or something.  She had a high fever. She was obviously VERY tired, and spent basically all of Wed and Thurs sleeping on the couch.  Saturday she was doing a little better, and today I'd say is the first day she seems back to healthy.  I'm glad she's back!

Last Sunday a little bit of rain blew threw, and the weather suddenly dropped like 30 degrees in 30 minutes.  It heated right back up after the storm blew away, but since the weather was nice we had family home evening on the back patio!

There was a nice rainbow that night, and I also think this is the first time that it rained enough that the ground was completely wet.  Other rain storms the individual drops have dried up before the whole driveway looks wet.  There was also a nice rainbow!

Monica had some sewing she wanted to do, and Brooke and Winry wanted to help out.  Brooke learned how to sew all on her own!  I don't know if I'm supposed to talk about what they're making, it might be a secret...

Grayson is definitely our little snuggler.  Lately he's been all about Monica too.

With Winry being sick I worked from home in case things came up, and to make sure I didn't get people sick at work.  Monica and Grayson were looking for things to do around the house, and Grayson made biscuits!  They were delicious!

He was very excited when they were done, and even sent a picture of them  to Biscuit to show him some love!  He was being so crazy for this picture and I just couldn't help but laugh.

Our little green anole friend came back again, this time for lunch.  It looks like the skin on it's tail was peeling and it kept pulling it off.  He was chilling there for while a while too.  Also, Monica caught onto the pattern that they do a bunch of quick push ups before they puff out the red thing on their neck.

I finally made some headway on... wait.. this is a secret!  Well, I've got a secret project going on, and it's going quite well.  I think things will be finished up in a day or so, but I won't be able to say more for a while.  Hopefully I remember to come back to this once the cat's officially out of the bag (p.s. it doesn't have anything to do with Jelly or a bag).

I'm trying to think of other general things from this week.  My first thought is that I've been quite tired and my head hurts, and that all started because sports are back on, but in our new time zone everything is even later than before!  I watched a BYU volleyball and soccer game, and the soccer team beat UCLA who was ranked #1 in the nation!  I also attempted to watch the football game last night, but I did not make it long on the couch.  In other good news, we have a comfortable couch!  Oh, we also got a new mattress.  We got a tempur-pedic, and we'll see how it works for Monica's back.  We also worked on a lot of projects around the house, but I didn't take a picture of any of them... so hopefully I'll remember sometime soon to get some of these house updates on here!  Oh, and Monica put together her 1 second every day for August!  I think that's everything for now.
