Quotes/Happenings Feb/early March 2019

A few recent quotes:

Megan: Sometimes parents don't make any sense.

Matthew (on being asked about the role saliva plays in digestion): It's about the mouth. Not saliva!

Matthew: Do you know why I baptize my cereal? It's because then they can't make any more sins.

We were playing hide and seek in the dark and Megan was the last one found. Upon being discovered in the washing machine, she said, "That was squishy and uncomfortable. Don't do that!" (Of course, Matthew promptly hid in there the next round.)

What is this?

A dinosaur?!?!? Megan decided to give it a bone.

Oh no! The dinosaur got Megan's hand.
(The dinosaur came to Megan and Matthew's school as part of their spring book fair.)

Matthew is still allergic to peanut!
Top + is the histamine control that you'd expect to be positive; - is the negative control that you'd expect to be negative; P is peanut serum and FP is peanut butter. Both the P and the FP were much more positive than the histamine. The P flare (red area) is 4.3 inches with the welt (raised area) being 1.6 inches. Definitely still allergic! At least it's good to know all our avoidance of peanut isn't in vain!

It rained and it rained and it rained. This is our flooded greenbelt. Megan and Matthew liked seeing how many new "lakes" they could find because of the rain. It has been a cool, wet February.

Double rainbow!

A view of come of the fair. We watched them do a vehicle extraction with the jaws of life. Pretty cool.
