The kids had a lot of fun with their grandparents despite all the yucky events that were to follow...
The Fun: Grandpa Larry helped the girls roll chocolate chip cookie dough and baked lots of cookies. He than proceeded to give them as many as they wanted, like grandparents do! Jake and Benjamin joined the cookie feast when they got home from school!
Abby got lots of story time in with Grandpa Larry.
We took the kids to LOWES for a free craft one morning!
I helped Abby put together her car when we got home.
Tess had a bigger cheering section at Gymnastics this week since Grandma, Grandpa Larry, and C.C. came with Jake and I to watch her. Jake had a fun birthday party at Bounce U this past weekend as well. We stayed busy until...
The YUCKY: So, Thursday night I came home from a girls night out to hear all about Abby throwing up. I spent that night on her bedroom floor getting up every 30 minutes to help her vomit into a bowl!

We weren't sure why Abby got so sick until days later when Grandpa Larry became the next victim of this yucky stomach flu! And then it went on to Jake, Dan, and finally Grandma! Sunday we all stayed home from church. Those who felt well enough played lots of games and watched Hoosiers together.
(Several exciting game of GO FISH!)
Luckily the Warner family didn't get it even though they spent 3 days with us on and off. I prayed hard that I wouldn't get sick, I needed to feel well! Tess and I never got this virus, I think because we were the lucky winners of it several weeks ago. On Sunday I did 7 loads of laundry and cleaned like a crazy woman! On Monday I did 5 more loads and had washed every single blanket, sheet, towel we own! Grandma and Grandpa Larry left on Monday. Despite all the sickness we still enjoyed their visit and getting to know Grandpa Larry better.
We have had our fair share of sickness this Winter and then some...

I hate having sick kids. It makes time slow down somehow and I never think it's going to end.
