Sickness and Surprises

Home

This week has had a few ups and downs. I had a rough week being sick and feeling very icky even though the weather is becoming so beautiful and it would be the perfect time to start going outside more! This is not the right season to get sick and I think I gave it to the rest of my family because the girls just started complaining about not feeling well last night and today. We all have running noses, sore throats and hopefully its only a short virus and we can get rid of it with our new hot tub! It was delivered on Friday and has a circulation problem that needs to be fixed, but it works enough that we were able to use it today. Shay was very disappointed it wasn't warm enough by friday night and even more upset it wasn't ready by Saturday! We were all pretty sad about not getting to use it right away, but once the circulation problem is fixed it will be a nice way to play in water that is warm instead of freezing in a small kitty pool. Adrian even enjoyed swimming and throwing the ball back and forth with us in the tub so missing out on going to our special Church program was over shadowed by the excitement of the hot tub.

Party

Shay had two birthday party inviations this weekend! The one on Saturday was at the fun arcade Wahooz and Claire was invited to come too since the girl's who had the birthday is in our neighborhood and we've played with her at block parties. Chris took them because I was feeling so sick and I hear all about how much fun they had when they got home. They were excited about the prizes from the arcade and the water games that were now open that weren't the last time we had a party there. The other birthday party was a skating party today, but since Shay was feeling so sick we didn't get to go and had to say sorry for missing out. I want to set up a playdate this week so she can give the birthday present to her and make up for not being able to celebrate with her. It is easier than bringing it to school, especially since she probably will miss tomorrow if they don't feel better by the morning.
