Suzy's day off
Suzy decided to spend her day off with me at work. She was very helpful in the office. We went to lunch with "uncle" Brian at Saba. It's a nice pasta restaurant in Emory village, especially delicious if you are craving ravioli.

Hand, Foot, and Mouth????
Not to be confused with "Foot in Mouth" disease which I am afflicted with or "Hoof and Mouth" disease that cause the cows to go nuts.
I went to pick up Cooper from the Clifton School yesterday and remarked at how strange it was that there was only one other child in his room and the connecting room was empty. It seems that one of the little crumb snatchers brought Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease into the daycare.
It's caused by a virus (related to the chicken pox virus) so the only meds that help are a good dosing of tylenol. It's characterized by fever, tiredness, sores in mouth, and blisters on the hands and feet. Cooper was running a fever over the weekend and has been extremely fussy and tired the past couple of days. I did notice a small blister between his fingers this morning so I'm keeping him out today and letting him get as much sleep as he can. He still has a pretty decent appetite so I'm hoping we got the mild form.
Don't worry, it's only an infant/toddler disease so if you have been around Coops you should be fine. Let's just hope we get this cleared up before the weekend.

She's crafty
Elise's sixteenth Birthday is tomorrow, so Suzy wanted to do something fun for her. We are waking her up tomorrow mornning with food, balloons, music and these great T-shirts. We ended up making them for all the friends to wear.It's suprisingly easy to make t-shirts, so everyone beware when you open your gifts Christmas morning!

Suzy's 15,000 mile check up
Suzy had her yearly checkup yesterday.
Good news: She is healthy as a horse.
Be kind to her today though, she had 2 shots and the flu mist up her nose

Mmmm Mmmmm Appples!
On the way back to Marietta we stopped at Jaemor Farms and picked up a whole buncha apples. They had a pumpkin patch and a corn maze
Visiting Grandma
We met Gramma Sheryl and Papa Farmer up at Demorest yesterday to take Grandma Louise out to lunch. We went to the Runway for a great buffet. Cooper loved their Mashed Potatoes! Suzy loved all the old cars out in the parking lot. We had a really nice visit, it was a beautiful day. Thanks again for luch, Mom!
Woodall wedding Reception
While Cooper and I were at home Saturday watching the Dawgs barely beat the worst team in the SEC, Suzy went to her best freind Elise's dad's wedding reception. The other cute girl is Emma. Emma and Elise have a band called the flying pancakes that played the reception. Suzy was guest vocalist for Magaritaville. I hope there's video of this somewhere!
Danny and I are in trouble.......
sent to us from a friend, Things I've learned from my boys (honest and not kidding):
A king-size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
A 3-year-boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42-pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20 x 20 ft. room.
You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way. The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh," it's already too late.
Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
A six-year-old boy can start a fire with a flint rock, even though a 36-year-old man says they can do it only in the movies.
Certain Legos will pass through the digestive tract of a 4 year old boy.
Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
Super glue is forever.
No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.
Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
VCRs do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.
Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like hot ovens.
The fire department in Austin, TX, has a 5-minute response time.
The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy. It will, however, make cats dizzy. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

on to the next challenge
We are beginning our next 14 day challenge today.
Mom will be joining us on this one.
We will be exercising again for 14 days (45 minutes each day) but this time we are adding 6 bike rides on top of the running.
This should put us in great shape for the 2 races at the end of the month.
