From happy to sad. Can happen so fast, haha.

It has been a crazy couple of weeks! I am pretty exhausted. Brandon had to go to the E.R because his appendix was inflamed. They didn't do anything yet so we are just waiting to see if it gets better on its own or worse. So he hasn't been feeling very good lately. He finished his rotation at the hospital and is now doing a rotation in a clinic with an internal medicine doctor. He likes it better in the hospital becuase he got to have his own patients and in the clinic he mostly just shadows the doctor. But at least he gets weekends off for 4 weeks! Nice to finally be able to see him for a weekend!
Evie has been getting really cranky. I don't know if she is getting more teeth or what her deal is but she has been very high maintenance lately. She has developed a really loud shriek when she doesn't get what she wants. When Andrew takes her toys she gets furious at him! haha, they are already fighting. They do play together once in a while now though. Andrew likes to put his face by Evie's feet and thinks it's hilarious when she kicks her feet at him. Evie loves to play with Andrew; he makes her laugh a lot. But if Evie touches Andrew with her hands he gets really mad at her.
Andrew got sick again with a bad cold/congestion. He also has an ear infection. So he was sick for his birthday poor guy. We went to the zoo anyways for his birthday and he had a really good time. For some reason he gets super hyper when he is sick and won't sit down and just watch a show or anything so getting out of the house is a good thing for him when he is sick. Both kids haven't been sleeping at night at all. Brandon and I are up for most of the night with them. Andrew just wakes up and cries a lot in the night because he doesn't feel good. It is really tough when kids are sick!
Andrew's birthday was fun. I decorated the living room with all his train stuff so he got pretty excited when he walked out and saw it. Evie thought it was really awesome too! I wanted to do a lot more but i did not have the energy. But it was good enough. We got Andrew a basketball hoop, a Thomas movie, and a train, and my mom sent him a fun drill set. He loved the little train best of all and spent a long time driving it on his tracks. He was too sick to enjoy his cake but had a few finger licks of frosting. I was going to make a Thomas cake but didn't have the energy and he wouldn't have eaten it anyway so maybe next year I can do that for him.
I taught my first lesson in young women's today. It was on chastity. It went really well. I wasn't too awkward so that's good! I had written a whole lesson but then changed it last night because it was too much of me just talking and not enough questions. So I just wrote up a bunch of questions to discuss with the girls and showed a little video and brought some fun scrapbook pictures of our wedding and the girls opened up a lot and talked so it was great! Hopefully I can learn how to be a better teacher with this calling; I think it will be really good for me :)
