The first full week of February was pretty crazy. On the first Saturday we noticed that Avery's jaw seemed pretty swollen, so Sunday morning she and Daryl got to go to the ER to be tested for mumps. The mumps test takes about three days to come back, but regardless of the outcome they advised us that Avery needed to stay home from school for a week and to avoid pregnant people and babies. So Avery and I spent a long week at home together while Daryl was out of town for work. Thank goodness for Amazon Prime. Avery was fine, and we spent a lot of time doing her schoolwork together. Long story short is that Avery didn't have the mumps and just some random virus.
We did a few fun things before the mumps crisis descended. Daryl and I took Avery and Harper to their school's skate night at the ice rink. Harper actually didn't ice skate, but cruised around on this little seal that someone else skating would push around. We counted about five different people that Harper got to schlep her around the rink. The girls had a great time, and Daryl and I froze. Emery got goop in her hair that I got to cut out, and Luke enjoyed preschool.

| Poor Avery all swollen up, but not with the mumps! |

| Emery got gak in her hair which I had to cut out of her hair. I can't find the piece of hair I butchered though because her hair is so thick. |
