Halloween 2014

As the big sister London chose the Halloween costumes this year. So it comes as no surprise that London chose Elsa and appointed Grant as Olaf both Frozen characters of course. She also thought Dennis should be Kristof and me Anna but we weren't as cooperative🎃I don't think Grant will be as easy to convince next year either. Besides I think the boy may be getting a snowman complex lol. We had a fun but rather short night for us. I think London was not feeling 100% and really would have liked a friend to go. Lucky for her Grant will be chasing her to the door steps next year. We hope y'all had a terrific Halloween! I'm pretty certain London collected enough fast acting carbs to treat her lows for a year🎃👻🎃

Field Trip

Last Friday London went on her third field trip of the year. Her class went to HEB Plus. A silver lining of diabetes is that her school selected a day that worked with my schedule so her substitute pancreas aka mom could come along for carb counting and insulin injecting so she wouldn't have to miss out on the goodies. We had a wonderful time learning about produce, seafood, dairy and of course it's Texas so how to make tortillas! The kids got to sample fruit, tortillas, cheese and fresh tortillas and bread. London was in heaven. The highlight of her day was touching the lobsters. London wasn't scared at all. She volunteered to touch it. Once she spoke up a few of the others joined. She also enjoyed seeing the HEB Buddy. We had a lot of fun and learned a lot and like true Texans theses girls love HEB😍
