Well, the sicknesses went from bad to worse. Max's cold (3 1/2 weeks later) is still lingering but him and I both came down with a stomach bug in there as well. Max's fever spiked high Christmas night but finally broke and came down. His special treat was sleeping with mommy! Nate ended up with a cold (so did my mom) and then I got it too. I had a high fever off and on, stomach bug, cold, etc... Max did end up with an ear infection we found out by the time we finally got him to the Dr's on Monday but was allergic to the amoxicilin (just a body rash and red ears) so he had to take something different (which didn't help his stomach bug). Ten days later Aliyah finished her meds then, New Year's Day, she came down with a fever too but luckily it didn't last too long. I wish we had frequent visit/call cards to the Dr's because between all of us (I took a trip to the Urgent Care Clinic when I was really sick because my Dr's was closed for the day) we had 6 calls and 4 visits! (Including a call Christmas and New Year's Day!) But anyway, once Max kicks this cough we should be good.
In the middle of all that, New Year's weekend the Brown's came up. Friday, New Years Eve, was actually an ok day for us. Max and I were still limited on what we could eat but feeling decent enough to get out of the house and meet everyone at Chocolate World and then head over to Grandma's for a New Years Eve party. We did come home around 9pm so the kids could go to bed and Nate and I made it up till midnight (a stretch for me which I paid for the next day feeling lousy again!). New Year's Day Ken and Diana came out and the Brown's came over. This was the day Aliyah got a fever and wasn't her usual smiling self but we had a nice visit and as always Max LOVED playing with his cousins!
Chocolate World:
Usually Aunt Ellie is taking the pictures, nice to have her in some!
The perfect shot! Ellie was trying to catch her with her new toys and caught this (this happens at least a dozen times a day so I guess it was bound to be caught on camera at some point!)
New Year's Day with MORE presents!
She actually kinda got the hang of opening this year!
Can never have enough trucks!
