The last few months have been full of dog drama! Back in April, Maggie started limping on her back leg. After several months of it not improving, I finally decided to take her to the vet to get an X-ray and found out she needed to have TPLO surgery. This is basically the same thing as a torn ACL surgery for humans. To prepare for her surgery, we borrowed a dog crate from a friend. Holland and the triplets thought it was fun to play in it!
Eden thought it was fun to play in the crate too!
Maggie had surgery on a Thursday and had to spend the night at the vet's office. We picked her up on Friday afternoon and she was pretty pitiful! Luckily she had her best human to support her during her recovery!
There were a lot of things Maggie hated after the surgery. She hated the cone and she hated the crate. We tried to put some blankets and pillows in the crate to make it more comfortable but then one day we came home to this:
We decided not to put pillow in the crate anymore!She had to wear the cone for two weeks and we were ALL excited when she was finally able to take it off.
Mrs. Glover is always good about sending pictures to show us what the kids are doing at school. Lily always looks like she's having fun during math and science class!
Lily had to make a carnival game to share with her class. She came up with a ping pong drop game that is similar to PLINKO. They usually get to share their games with the whole school but because of COVID they only got to share it with their classmates this year.
Lily and Trinity had a playdate and got to enjoy painting together.
Sweet cousins
Parker was asked to play "Taps" during the announcements on Veteran's Day. He was nervous but did a great job!Parker's friend, Cole, had a birthday and invited him to go kayaking in Glen Rose. They had a great time and it was a fun, new experience for Parker!
September and October were full of ups and downs. Between Maggie's surgery and me testing positive for COVID, we weren't sad to see October come to an end. Hopefully November will be less eventful for our family and we will all stay well as we go into the holiday season.
