emmett in the hospital

Wow, what a freakin' week! Emmett's back to his sweet, happy self after his 5 day stay in the hospital for RSV and pneumonia. He'd been sick on and off for about 10 days, just a cold and then a cough, so I took him to his pediatrician Monday morning. She listened to his breathing and checked his oxygen saturation, then RAN us across the street to the emergency department. They admitted him immediately, then drove us in an ambulance to the Children's Hospital where we stayed all week.



Here we go...

Poor little guy. On 5L of oxygen for the first couple of days. He was totally wiped out.

Sick, but still mischievous. He wanted to get into everything within arm's length of his crib.

Finally sleeping after a very long day.

Once he started getting oxygen he really perked up. The nurses were so great, bringing him more and more toys. He's the most social kid - it was tough being with just mom for so many days. Noah came by every afternoon for awhile to visit us, then came back for dinner with Finn and Sophia. They missed him like crazy. They weren't allowed in his room because he was contagious, so they would stand in the hallway and talk to him. Sophia cried when it was time to go.

Home...and dad got a haircut!
Sophia got invited to her first birthday party since we moved here. Her friend Jamie from school had his party at Wings Over the Rockies, an airplane museum. She had a total blast.

Back home, eating some tomatoes and peas for dinner. Love this sweet boy. It was a very hard week, but we survived and are happy to all be back home together again.

What we've been up to

It's been cold and snowy! We got almost a foot of snow on Monday afternoon and the kids had a snow day on Tuesday. They got hours of TV in the morning and then Noah came home and we all went sledding. The hill by our house was absolutely packed with kids. We had so much fun. Emmett cried and cried, saying "brrrr" until I threw him on a sled with me and flew down the hill. He cried the first time, and then loved it after that. Sophia and Finn were both so brave. Noah build them a jump and they both flew over it on the sleds over and over again. Finn loves to shovel the sidewalk. Noah snowboarded a couple days over the weekend so Finn was the man of the house - shoveling so Sophia doesn't have to even walk on the snow. Ha! Sledding! I went to a fun wine tasting party with other Teller moms on Saturday night. This was the welcome to the party.  Story time! Oh Emmett.

Sophia turns 5!

Our little bunny turned FIVE last week! I can't even believe it, a whole hand. She took lollies to school for her classmates, and then we had a party at La Jolla Rec Center on Sunday. Complete with a bounce house, pizza and a cake big enough to feed at least 100 people. Seriously, the cake was ridiculous. Apparently I ordered a full sheet instead of a quarter or a half. Oooopsies. I think five is gonna be a great year for Soph. She has made lots of new friends and is so happy to go to school everyday. I'm so happy she's in TK, she is loving it. She got a new bike from us, and lots of cool art stuff from friends, and her first Barbie! She also got another Wonder Woman costume from Nay Nay, thank goodness. Cruisin' on her new ride. Now we just have to get rid of those training wheels.  The actual night of her birthday she requested pasta so we went to Filipi's in PB. Hadn't been there in at least a decade and it did not disappoint. The waitstaff sang her ...

Our trip to Croatia

Helloooo! Well, we've had a few things going on so the blog has been neglected. But I want to post pictures from our last two trips this summer - Croatia and Italy. The first week of August, we flew to Split, Croatia and stayed there for a night at an Airbnb. Split is a big city with a great downtown area full of outdoor cafes, a huge jewelry market and is a main port to a whole bunch of Croatian islands. We spent 5 amazing days in Croatia - we absolutely loved this place. Gorgeous scenery, friendly people, very touristy with people from all over the world and inexpensive.  One of the many beaches in Split...     Noah bought a sweet raft for the kids. He about passed out blowing it up. Afternoon at the beach. Me and Finnster looking for a lunch spot. Sophia became a little fish this summer. She loved all the hotel pools and lakes/oceans/seas we came across. She met a friend this day, Thea, who we played with at the beach all day and then coinciden...
