Family Visit: sickness strikes! Monday and Tuesday

On Sunday night is when we started to get an idea that this wasn't going to be a normal week.

Actually Saturday night was the first clue.  That night shortly after he went to bed, poor Oliver got sick. But he only threw up once so we didn't know if it was just traveling or something funny he ate that was bothering him.

But on Sunday night poor Bethany was very ill. I know she had a very LONG night and I felt so badly that she was so far away from home and feeling crummy.

I later learned that grandpa Trevor was also feeling quite awful during the night.

Needless to say, we had several adults who just needed to rest and recuperate on Monday.

Linda, Michael and I did take the kiddos over to the playground at the shopping center close by (Southpark Meadows). They have one of the best playgrounds and my kiddos always really enjoy going there. We also made a small trip to the nearby Sam's Club to pick up some things for dinner as well as the regular Walmart to get supplies for our sickies.
 
Unfortunately, I don't have a single photo of this day. I promise the kids had fun though!

Monday night, Emmaline didn't really want to eat.  

Tuesday was also a bit of the same  Even though Bethany and Trevor were feeling much better, being so sick had really taken a lot out of them. Emmaline actually ended up throwing up  and acted a bit puney and off, but she did play some.  Matt also had to work late (tutoring) so we couldn't have his car. We needed to stay closer to home.

We spent most of the day around the house. In the afternoon, I took Linda to Costco. When we got back, I worked on getting dinner together (we were having Greek food!) and then took Oliver, Maxton, and Emmaline on a LOOOONG wagon ride.  The kids had fun and we got to see a lot of the fall/Halloween decorations around the neighborhood.
