MOnday – This is how I found Ella in the morning. She was hanging off the end of her bed…

Finally got a few pics of the baby boy.  Good thing since he’s officially a MONTH OLD!!

We also had a friend over for Sylvie to play with and Ryan started 2 weeks of 1st shift. You know, I hated when he was assigned to 2nd shift but we adjusted…I now hate 1st shift. lol (No wait, it’s not funny, I really do hate it.)

Dade has an LDS roommate for school!! What a HUGE answer to prayers. So grateful to my Father in Heaven for each and every blessing. :)  -- Guess we got a rainbow to celebrate. (I could actually see this entire rainbow but I don’t have a wide enough angle lens to ever capture it…ugh.)

Tuesday was PIONEER DAY!  It was also Collin’s 1 month check up.  He’s over 12 lbs.  He’s also been having some issues with sleep apnea and the doctors decided it warranted a trip to the hospital for an overnight stay.

Of course, nothing happened while we were in the hospital other than them finding out that he has an innocent heart murmur.  Though I felt no reassurance the doctors say they are reassured and that he seems very healthy.  Guess it’s time to buy a breathing monitor!!

The rest of this blog is rather pictureless and description-less but I’m running on NO sleep…

Wednesday Dade had a temple trip.

Thursday we went to meet Ella’s 1st grade teacher.  She seems super nice and Ella is very excited.  I’m excited because Ella’s teacher keeps a blog! Yippee!

“Getting ready to go meet Ella's teacher. Man, that was a short summer!”

Friday Dade had to work and then it was all prep for his Sending Dade Away (in style) Dorm Warming Party!  Dade invited a TON of people and just as I’d worried the weather was bad.  Luckily not everyone got the invite and we only had about 40 people pressed tightly into our house during the horrible storm.

It was a wonderful evening, though. I am so very grateful to all the families and friends we have that support Dade and our family. I felt so loved and supported.  Despite all the magic of the evening, we did have the tragic moment when one young lady broke her leg on our new trampoline…seriously…she’s doing alright though and we bought her flowers…)

Saturday  Someone’s going to miss his big brother a whole lot!  (Dade says this picture makes him look asleep with a chubby hand. In fact he was looking down at his brother and his hand in blurred from patting his back.

Sunday we went to two different wards for church. We started at ours and then headed out to visit the ward Dade will attend out there on occasion. They are simply wonderful and really support the kids at Dade’s school.  Makes me feel just a tiny bit better…

There's a flea in my house??????!!!!!! How is that even possible?
