This week has not quite turned out the way I had planned. For those that have visted the main Scrapgrlz page you may have noticed the donation link there for Epilepsy research. I had planned to do this post about MOvember on Monday as it was the start day for Mike, but ....
Monday morning was a very rough start to our week. Cait had a weird seizure, nothing like gelastic and nothing like she has ever had before. She was choking, could not breathe and had gone totally rigid, so rigid that Mike could not sit her up but managed to get her on her side. This was going for more than 5 minutes and we could not bring her out of it so we called 911. The paramedics came, followed by the ambulance - and we spent the day in hospital while they tested her. We still really do not know what happened - and fortunately it has not happened since Monday morning - although Mike and I are now on high alert at night - which is not very restful. We go to Stanford next week to see the specialist and hope he can give us some answers. I really hope this never happens to her again, it was so frightening and just heartbreaking not being able to do anything.

However, I decided to make MOvember the focus of Wednesday Winner instead.
Mike shaved off his normal mo/goatee on Monday night all ready for his stint at MOvember. I have to say he looks weird - I think he looks younger.. too young actually - our kids think it makes him look older and weird - and could he please grow it back ;-)
If you want to donate to the cause - and support my husband's moustache - you can donate here. I think it is a great and fun way to help raise awareness and funds - and personally I will be glad when he grows his mo and goatee back - he looks weird without it!!
In honour of MOvember - I thought this weeks giveaway should be something manly man - so how about some Lil Man from Cosmo Cricket - because honestly Mike now looks like a little man!

I hope you have fun playing along - and good luck to everyone. I think you all know the rules now - so I will give you a break from posting them.
The rest of November is going to be all Autumn (cos I say that not fall) related - so keep checking in for lots of fun - including GREEN Friday specials, well it's me ... it wasn't going to be Black Friday now was it.
I think you can guess what the December giveaways are going to be cos it is my FAVE time of year!!
