So, let's just be honest here. April was an absolutely sucky month around here. Hence the complete lack of blogs. Yet like bad gas, it passed.
So here we are, May has arrived...and it is infinitely less sucky.
First- Ben is done at the black hole, a.k.a. Children's hospital. It is common knowledge that residents just disappear there...and that was truly the case. Over the entire month Ben averaged over 80 hours a week. Then he came home and slept.
Second- Caleb has his tonsils out and is completely recovered. He had obstructive sleep apnea due to his GINORMOUS tonsils. Since the surgery he is actually sleeping at night and is way more pleasant in the morning! (Side note to any medical personnel who may be reading: when patients come to the office for a tonsils and adenoids surgery consult, don't say "are you here for a T and A consult?" It's just weird)
Third- It's actually consistently warm out. Now, since we are in Nebraska, May is basically a constant tornado watch- but at least we get to play outside in between sirens!
Fourth- I went to the dentist and I still have NO CAVITIES!! However, I did decide to start brushing at night and flossing...due to the gum disease and all. (Did you guys know that if you floss every day, your gums don't bleed after about a week? I had no idea- so with me bleeding all over the place I probably looked like an idiot when I lied and told the dentist that I did floss.)
Fifth- I actually had four legitimate reasons why May is great!
I'll end with a funny Caleb story:
Caleb was helping me make sandwiches for a picnic and we were talking about the differences between lunch meats. I said that bologna comes from pigs to which he replied “pigs make bologna?” I said, “No, bologna comes from pigs...from their belly”. To which he replied “oh, you mean where the coin slot is?”
