Lately

Well, life has been interesting the past few weeks.  Ella tested positive for mono two Saturdays ago.  However, the doctor said it could also NOT be mono and could be a virus that acts like mono.  Wonderful.  Her tonsils were humongous, which is what caused me to take her in.  She wasn't (and hasn't) been acting tired or sick, but her tonsils were saying something else!  I think she is starting to feel better now and the tonsils have returned to a more normal size!

We have a vehicle "situation" at our place.  My beloved Escape has likely kicked the bucket.  The repairs I have been quoted will far exceed its value.  So, I sit and ponder.  I hate big decisions, especially ones that come out of nowhere!  I have had a rental car the past few days, but that's going back today.  And then I'll be car less.  Yes, I'm freaking out.  :) 

We had a quick family photo session this past Saturday at a farm/park in Eagan.  It was a perfect fall day and from the sneak peek (see below) I think we will have some great pictures to print (to finally decorate the house with some pictures!)
