Playing Peekapuke

We have been a bunch of sickies for the past week.  Last Wednesday I started to feel a little off and was battling on and off nausea and stomach aches.  Each day I felt a tad worse and by Sunday I was glued to the couch sipping Gatorade while eating popsicles and saltines.

Braedon started feeling sick on Saturday afternoon and kept getting worse.  Yesterday he was so dehydrated and out of it for hardly eating or drinking anything for three days, we decided to take him to the doctor.  He got a prescription for his stomach and instructions to try to get as much Pedialyte and Pediasure in him has possible.  The boy went 2 days without peeing!  He was also very close to having to get some fluids through an IV.  He was really worrying me, but yesterday afternoon he finally peed!  Yay for pee!  This morning he is actually up playing around a bit.  It is so nice to have my upbeat boy back because I sure missed him.

Luckily, Adi has not gotten it yet, and I hope we are out of the woods and she will continue to stay healthy.  I have been doing my best to keep her separated from the rest of the sickies.  Derek seems to be fighting it and hopefully he can get through it like a champ.  However, we all know how boys can be:)

Here are some pictures of my two cuties from last week.

Other than trying not to puke, we have been packing!

We have been doing little bits each day and Derek was a rock star this weekend while I was feeling under the weather and got a lot done.

We pick up and pack the moving truck on Sunday and then are out of here Wednesday morning.  For those that don’t know, we are moving back to Seattle.  After the move I will go into more detail!

10 Months!

021

This little lady was 10 months old on the first!

016

I seriously can’t believe how fast she is growing.  It makes me a little sad!

030

Her personality is definitely making an appearance and I have a feeling she is going to be our drama queen, and that three year old who has a fit on the ground in the middle of the ice cream aisle kicking and screaming.

She is spunky, demanding, loud, and the cutest little girl I have ever seen!  She is going to keep me busy for sure!

Milestones:

-She says “mama” on a regular basis

-Is crawling everywhere and has mastered going up the stairs

-She pulls herself up onto furniture or whatever she can get her hands on and has started cruising.

-She has 6 teeth!!

-She is communicating a lot more by signing milk, all done, and will respond with, “yeah.”

-If you take something from her that she wants she will LET YOU KNOW!

-She LOVES her brother

I sure do love this girl!
