We've Been Sick!

Our household has been battling a nasty virus/flu and I think we are getting to the end of its survival. It all started Friday afternoon after Gracie woke from her nap and had a 103.2 temp (her high 103.7). We continued to battle all night and she seemed to break them in the early morning and seemed to have a good day on Sat. But when we returned from the game (thank god we didn't drink much) she had a horrible night with temps and sleeping only 20-30 min at a time, waking up bawling, and then us trying to get her back to sleep. How exhausting. She also was grunting so we thought something was wrong. We took her into the Dr.s office on a Sunday and she got the works. Throat swab, blood drawn for cultures and labs, and she had to be catheterized to get a urine sample. It was horrible but luckily everything came back negative and it was decided a virus. She seemed to be doing fine the rest of Sunday and even Monday. And then Monday afternoon I was getting goosebumps on a nice sunny day. Oh yeah, I caught her illness. I experienced chills, fevers (my high 103.0), body aches, dizziness, sore throat, and head ache. It wasn't fun and I don't think I've ever had a temp that high. Anyways, we are on the mend. Gracie is back to normal and I still spiked a temp last night, so hopefully that was my last one. Wash your hands everyone; you don't want this virus thats going around!

Happy 31st Birthday Hoff!


Hoff had a wonderful 31st Birthday. He got to work all day in the beautiful weather. When he got home, we went out to eat at the Cheesecake Factory. And then we came home and enjoyed brownies and opened gifts!

Good Ole Walt Disney!


Gracie was enjoying the beautiful day today; exploring her surroundings outside. When all of a sudden it happened. . . . . Gracie tried to eat dirt! When I picked her up I had a great laugh as she had given herself a dirt mustashe. Her mustashe made me think of Walt Disney or Hitler????? Just Kidding! You're so silly Gracie!
