Report Cards & Ghirardelli

Julia & Ethan did really well on their report cards. We are so proud of them. Ethan had a camp out this weekend for cubscouts so we will miss him. Julia brought her friend (and cousin) Nellie to spend the weekend in Chicago. We went to Ghirardelli to celebrate Julia's report card. Julia got the peanut butter sundae, Nellie got the fudge sundae, and I had a chocolate caramel square.

Bella

Bella went to the vet (specialist) today and had a scope of her stomach and intenstines. They think she has Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), but we will know for sure on Mon or Tues when the results come back. Her stomach is finally back to normal and hopefully it will stay that way. She went a little nuts when we got home.

Craig's Birthday continued...

The kids bought Craig shark teeth cuff links and he loved them!

Craig's Birthday (actual bdy is 11-15)

Ethan helped me make Ghirahdelli caramel brownies to celebrate Craig's birthday. We actually have the kids two weekends in a row, but Ethan has a cub scout camp out next weekend so we celebrated tonight.

Ethan's cousin Matt stayed the night

Ethan helped light the candles. Craig looks really excited.

Julia's Basketball Game

Julia did a great job today at her game. It was a close game, but they lost in the end. This is Julia's first year of playing basketball and she's catching on quickly. She is awesome on defense.

Bella

We took her to the vet because her stomach was 2-3 times bigger than normal and we found out she has fluid in her stomach. The vet thinks she has inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). She is on medicine and we are changing her diet as well. Hopefully she will get better soon.

I put a couple of dresses on her for the blog. Isn't she a cutie!
