Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Samantha has strep but we got her up to the doctor right after school Wednesday so she was feeling better by Thursday morning! She couldn’t go to school though which meant I had the best lunch date…
at the new old Zoe’s! Zoe’s is back in Crestline with the original menu and that makes us all happy! Make it a great weekend!
We had a great Valentine’s Day! The kids got some treats that morning before heading off to school…
and they all had fun at their class parties and came home with tons of candy!
I loved Spencer’s bag he made at school to hold his valentines.
I even got to be the Valentine Queen at tennis!
A LOVEly day all around!
Like last year, Samantha and Robert got all dressed up and put on their best dancing shoes to boogie the night away at MBC! Samantha looked adorable as always in her new rainbow dress and gold accessories…
Robert looked dapper (even if Samantha was wishing he had on something with a little more pizzaz! ha!). They made quite a cute, dimpled duo!
“Robert” got her a flower corsage and they thought it was pretty funny posing with it…
Love these two goofballs so much.
Robert said they had a great time and cut up the dance floor all night. Samantha loved being all dressed up with her buddies.
Me? I got to to go – where else? – the mexaurant with the boys! Everyone had a good night!
Happy Valentine’s Day from these three loves…
Ok, it’s actually just two. The third love didn’t want his picture taken! It will be a fun day full of candy for them at school! Samantha took these cute cards with a coin for a free ice cream cone on the back!
The boys took the same Valentines they’ve taken the past two years…can’t beat a winner!
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Samantha has been complaining about pain in her heel for a few weeks – really since basketball season started. When I noticed she was walking on her toes all the time I decided it was finally time to do something about it! I took her up to see the same pediatric orthopedist that I had taken Spencer to when he was having foot pain.
He diagnosed it as Sever’s disease which is inflammation at growth plate in the heel in growing children. Basically she hit a growth spurt, is super active, and made the area around that growth plate mad. She will grow out of it eventually but will just have to manage the pain with rest, ice, stretching and heel gel inserts. I hate for her to be in pain but glad it’s not something more serious. If it doesn’t get better over the next few weeks we might have to consider a boot!
She did get her first x-ray which she thought was pretty cool!
Because of that x-ray we learned she’s special like Spencer! They both have an extra bone in their foot! Spencer has an accessory navicular bone while Samantha has an os trigonum which is an extra bone behind the ankle bone. I always knew they were special!! Wonder if Maxwell has one too? He’s pretty special as well.
We made it back to school just in time to have lunch with her friends.
Hoping we can get that inflammation down quickly. This girl is too active to to have to slow down!
