Weekend Wrap-Up: The Bug

Be prepared for the lamest Weekend Wrap-Up in Babygoose history.

As I mentioned on Thursday, Callie managed to pick up The Stomach Bug.  On Wednesday night it was all about the puke, but then she was okay throughout the day on Thursday.  She seemed to be her normal self.  On Friday, when she woke up, she seemed pretty sleepy.  Despite my better judgement, Chris dropped her off with my mom and I went to a training I had to go to for work.  By about noon I learned that Callie had had multiple poop explosions.  All over my mom...and their couch.  So I left the training early and got back before she woke up from her nap.  We had to cancel going to the Koch's for a pizza night, and stayed in and watched a family movie. 

Then, later that night, Chris got The Stomach Bug.  

On the plus side, my friend Casey and her husband Travis had their baby on Friday night!  They had a baby boy, who is yet to be named.  He is 8 pounds 7 ounces.  All are doing well.  Congrats Casey!

On Saturday morning, while Chris was recovering from The Stomach Bug, I took Callie to Southdale for a "Princess" day at Herberger's.  I just wanted to go to be one of the first 100 people and get a free pair of kid Crocs.  The event was pretty lame, but we got the Crocs and Callie met Cinderella.

Not so sure about the princess

We stopped for a muffin and coffee, but the lethal toddler gas started up again, so we hurried home before a public blowout happened.  The rest of Saturday was spent with Chris and Callie in their jammies on the couch, feeling miserable.  I, of course, got a cold (the cold that I've been fighting for MONTHS), but was trying to get stuff done (mainly TONS of laundry).  Then it snowed.  And I shoveled.  Grrr.

I woke up on Sunday morning and, GUESS WHAT?, I got The Stomach Bug!  And I texted my parents and, GUESS WHAT?, my mom got The Stomach Bug too!  This Stomach Bug is so not cool.

I spent the day in bed.  Miserable.  My mom did the same.

By early this evening I was at least able to move from my bed to the basement.  Callie and Chris were better, so they hung out at home for most of the day with Uncle Dan.  Then they all went to Grandma and Grandpa's house for a little change of scenery. 

I guess if The Stomach Bug had to happen, I'm glad it happened this weekend.   I am looking forward to a short work week and a fun Thanksgiving holiday filled with family!

Let's just hope The Bug stops here.
