Update #1

I swear I have updated this page since November.  How has so much time passed? 

On Halloween my identity was stolen and we had just put in an offer on a new (and hopefully FOREVER) home.  It seemed that between my classes, the three kids getting sick on and off, and the identity theft; I had zero free time.  Our offer was accepted and we had a few issues before we closed, but it was happening!  We closed on our house on December 17th, 2015.  Nico had been having some pain and we thought it was a UTI or kidney stones.  On the 18th, we took possession and started painting in the girls' room in an effort to move in by Christmas.  Nico was in the hospital that night.  He was later moved to KU Med and had an abdominal aneurism and infection.  He had a AAA Open Repair on Christmas Eve.  He spent 10 days in the hospital and came home way to early.  He had 45 (or more, we've lost count) staples and now has a HUGE scar from sternum to groin.
