Chloe spent the entire weekend, nights and days included, laying around feverish and horribly uncomfortable. And by lying around I mean in me and Bill's arms. We each took a night and then last night just had her sleep with us. I planned to take her in this morning but my pediatrician is closed for Memorial Day. Thank heavens her fever finally let go a few hours ago and she's acting much more normal.
In the few hours on Saturday that Chloe wasn't horribly sick we ran over to Y Beach at the lake and had a lovely afternoon swimming. The water is the perfect temperature and it was warm but off and on cloudy. Perfect weather for an afternoon at the lake.
I made the broken herringbone quilt pattern and loved it so much, particularly the dark blue square, that I started a topper for my piano with the scraps. I used up the fabric so I need to go get a few more fat quarters to finish, but it's quite striking. I've wanted a cover to protect that gorgeous wood for a year but couldn't find anything available ready made. This is a fun little project to complete it.
I finished this quilt top. It didn't have the border or corners on before. It's as big as the top of my king-sized bed so I'm not sure what I'll use it for, but I love how bright and cheery it is.
Spencer had his baseball awards banquet at a local pizza place. It was fun. Chloe immediately broke his trophy about two minutes later, so now it has been glued and placed somewhere she can't reach it.
Spencer had several awards ceremonies this week. I missed writing one of them on my calendar and wasn't there to see him get five different awards! Talk about parental guilt! I wish I had been there to cheer for him.
Chloe discovered corn on the cob this week. She's a huge fan.
Aaron uses the fan to cool his off. He's always coming up with smart ideas like that.
Another shot at one of Spencer's award ceremonies.
I ran out of the dark gray and picked a light gray for the finishing border. I don't love it, but I don't hate it, and I love that it's done! Haha!
