UPDATES

There have been so many fun things that have been going on in the past couple months. The biggest thing is that my sister-in-law, Ann, and I completed our first Marathon! We ran the Utah Valley Marathon down Provo Canyon. The weather reports were predicting thunderstorms but we actually ended up with PERFECT weather. We had so much fun!

Coming up to the finish line. Looks like we are just having a nice little jog through the park.
I am so glad that Ann and I ran the race together. I can't thank her enough for all the support, ecouragement, and good laughs that she provided!
So, here are some other things that have been going on. We discovered that Boston LOVES dog food. In return, Maya hates that Boston loves dog food.

Next on the list of fun things is Cellulitis. What's cellulitis, you ask? Let me show you.....
This is after 5 doses of antibiotics.
So, on Wednesday night I noticed my foot was a little red and swollen on the top. No big deal though, right?... wrong. By Thursday afternoon it was getting a little worse so I decided to mark it with a pen. It is the circle on the middle of my foot. I had to work on Thursday night but couldn't fit my foot into a shoe. I went to work and by the end of my shift my foot was Gigantic and the swelling and redness had spread to my whole foot and started going up my leg. I stopped by an instacare on the way home from work and they told me it is cellulitis which is a serious bacterial infection that probably started from a bug bite. They said that if it got any worse I would end up in the hospital with IV antibiotics. It is now Sunday and it is looking a little better but still really swollen and painful.
Anyway enough about my funky foot. Here are some cute things boston has been up too.
Boss trying out my helmet for size.
He loves to wear sunglasses.
Look at all those teeth! As many of you know, Boston didn't get ANY teeth until 16 months. For a while there I was very worried that he might not have any at all. Now, at 18 months, he has 10. We are so proud of him for finally growing some teeth! Way to go Boston!

Boston is so much fun and so smart. I can't get enough of this cute little smile!

Love you, Boss!
And that's What's Up with Us!

Dog food, eh? Surely, it has some nutritional value for kids. All the pictures of Boston were a crack up...he is such a cute kid. Sorry about your foot! That is craziness.

OH MY GOSH! I can't believe your foot is still that red and puffy.
Call me tomorrow and I will serve you lunch in bed and take Boss to the park. All these cute pics made me miss him.
