Adam finished up his fall flag football season.
I got to go with Sarah on a Field Trip to Vala’s Pumpkin patch. I love her Corn Angel.
We went back to the pumpkin patch as a family.
Greg loves baking with kids on the weekends.
Isaac lost his two middle bottom teeth.
We made a quick visit to Jeff’s form Brayden’s birthday and craving jack o lanterns.
Lindsey took Isaac lunch at school for his birthday the day before his actually birthday, since she was having surgery on his actually birthday.
Mom Cottrell came over to help on surgery day. She had the kids make scary gingerbread houses and made Isaac’s birthday cake. It was great to have her here to celebrate. She was a big help!!!
The snow cone truck came to our Ward Trunk or Treat.
Halloween was fun. Adam was a pirate, Sarah was a princess, Isaac was a cowboy. Mom and Dad Cottrell came back over to trick or treat. Mom stayed over another night to help again after Lindsey second stay in the hospital. Mom brought dinner, did three loads of laundry and cleaned the bathrooms. Again a HUGE help!
Lindsey surgery intentional went well. She was able to come home that day and was able to sleep and begin to to recover thanks to Mom Cottrell. Friday after she felt sick and we thought it was just from surgery and part of the recover. Over the weekend it became worse and she couldn’t keep anything down and by Sunday was becoming dehydrated. Monday we finally went into the doctor (yes we should have gone in sooner) and they decided she needed to be hospitalized for an IV. Monday evening at the hospital they tired 4 times to get the IV in, but she was so dehydrated. They finally decide to do a picc line in her upper arm. After about 43 hours she was able to come home. We learned that she had a kidney/bladder infection, and e-coli in the bladder caused by the surgery. We are so grateful for friends that were able to help with kids, getting them to and from school, the Relief Society for bringing in dinner for the week, all the prayers, visitors, and help. She is still not feeling 100% but is almost there. We have been definitely counting our blessings the last couple of weeks.
