Starting on Friday, January 23rd, we spent four days in the hospital with Cooper. On his last day with the football helmet, he ended the day in a funk with a mild fever . . . we gave him Tylenol and wrote it off to teething. Then, he starting having seizures at bedtime. In no particular order, a bevy of tests and about 3 dozen needle sticks later - all of which were clear, the doctors at Children's Hospital Dallas deduced that they were caused by a high fever resulting from a viral infection. We're definitely grateful for his clean bill of health . . .
Thank goodness for the hospital's fleet of red wagons and a few awesome nurses . . . especially, Ms. Shelley.
Upon his return home, he quickly caught up on the latest Cabela's advertisements, resumed "the chase of Chigger" and evaluated the soil quality in the potted plants.
Donna and Dale kept Cooper during our transition back to work. Thank you both!
In the weekends since, we've been working the yard. Specifically, we're starting a garden this year. Cooper is still not sure about the sticky grass, but he's proving to be a wonderful supervisor.
This last weekend, we put the finishing touches on the 2nd bed. Note the supervisor's smirk.
All gardens need good worms. We picked up a few dozen of WalMart's finest to keep our soil aerated.
We'll be planting soon!
Until next time!
