We interrupt this pity party...

... to bring you GOOD NEWS! Not just good, FANTASTIC!

The last week at the Hugo home has been rough. The cold-of-death hit Chase and I last weekend and we've been basically miserable coughing, with sore throats and runny noses. (Spoiler alert- we are half way through our THIRD box of Kleenex since Sunday) Luckily, Ben stayed mostly healthy until after his big test on Thursday, but the cold-of-death has now hit him as Chase and I are starting to come out of it. I've now downgraded it to just a regular cold :)

But, amidst the misery of the week, we couldn't help but take a break from our pity party to celebrate and shout for joy that these two got engaged!

My brother Will and his new sweet finance Katie Newbold are getting married January 5th and we couldn't be more thrilled! We are so glad that Will found someone as beautiful, sweet and awesome as Katie, because he definitely deserves it!

In unrelated news- funny moments of Chase this week:

Chase was really, really awful during dinner. As we were cleaning up:
Ben: Chase, that was not good behavior. You need to say you are sorry.
Chase: (in the whiney-est voice possible) I no want to! I no want to!
Ben: Say you are sorry.
Chase: I no want to! (Seriously- it would have been so much easier for him to just say sorry)

Chase has been pronouncing milk "milp" all week. It's now evolved to "milp-k".

Ben: Chase, can you say "go Cougars!"
Chase: Go Aggies!

Chase: Milp!
Me: What's the magic word? (We are working on using please and thankyou)
Chase: Daddy! (yeah- that works a lot of the time too)

I'm glad we have a 20 month old for entertainment around here!

  1. I love that Chase is an Aggies fan, since Heidi is the least sport-oriented of the whole gang.

    And I concur that the engagement is fantastic news! Sosososo excited for them and your family,

  2. Congrats to Will! So fun. I'm sorry you guys are still not feeling great yet. That sounds just awful. Hopefully you are all on the upswing.
