The great Mother’s Day Car Clean for me!

Family bookending family! The best!

On this day…thank you, iPhone!

This may be more of a reflection on me than Meryl:)

Go Cheeto Macaroni Dragons! (The, of course, team titled mascot.)

In Meryl’s second grade class, each student gets a full birthday week of show-and-tell…Monday, we’re ready. (Summer birthday kids get assigned a random week during the school year.)

Welp, turns out having previously raised a puppy doesn’t cure you from making rookie mistakes, again.

We took Humbao to the vet last weekend as he hadn’t been eating all his food and then his eye got goopy green boogers in it. Turns out, he somehow scratched his eye and…he was having difficulty eating hard kibble given that his puppy teeth are falling out. Woops! (We also forgot to up his food volume and were already feeling bad about stunting his growth.) And then yesterday he somehow got a bout of diarrhea. Thankfully, we remembered how to treat that, but we’re still recovering from the cleanup:) Survive and advance!

32-hours in Anchorage! And I only have two pictures. Well, Xanna stole this one from Facebook, and it wasn’t even from McKenzie’s account:)

I now know how to build a plane, courtesy of Lukas guiding me through how he’s building a plane. It was so fun to see him in his element. And then we made ham and cheese melts using a mere 200-degrees in his 900-degree oven. Cousins unite with McKenzie and Emily too!

What a difference three months makes!
