Happy Birthday, Bekah!

Today is Bekah's 4th birthday. We started out with cake and presents at home in the morning. Then we set out to go to my sister's house for my nephew's birthday party. We didn't make it very far before discovering that there was an accident on the other side of the bridge that had traffic on our side virtually at a standstill. So back home we went go to wait it out. After waiting 1 1/2hrs, we set out again with better results and we are able to make it to my sister's albiet a little late. It was a beautiful day for an outside party. There's was tons of food of which I ate way to much of.



A cute pooh bear cake for Josh...here's a pic of him enjoying his cake.






My sister made sure that Bekah wouldn't be left out on her big day by getting her a little cake all for herself. She was thrilled. Here's a picture of her enjoying her cake.






And a pic of her sporting her brand new b'day outfit that her aunt and uncle gave her...she loves it!

Afterwards, we ran by Andy's parents for a bit...did presents for Bekah and Keari (Keari's b'day is Friday) and then headed home. All in all, it was a good day.

My poor nephew

I got a call from my sister this morning saying that Josh has been throwing up after each feeding since last night. He has no fever, no runny nose, isn't acting fussy...he just continues to throw up after each feeding. She called this afternoon to say that she was finally able to get him in to see his pediatrician and that the poor little guy has the stomache bug that is going around here. Dr said he is still well hydrated, which is great new, so that even though he is continually getting sick, he is able to keep enough down to keep him hydrated. They're going to give him small amounts of pedialyte throughout the night and small amounts of milk with the hopes that he will be able to keep the small amounts down. Of course he probably isn't going to like that cause he tends to be a little piggy when he eats. LOL Hopefully he'll get over this bug quickly and that my sister and her husband don't end up with it.

Time to go Home

Josh has finally been released from the hospital. Yay! Although I'm a little sad that I won't get to see him as much now. He was in a hospital right down road from where I work so I've been able spend some time with him every couple of days. But I'm glad he's finally home and is doing well.

A New Baby

and for once it's not mine. LOL My sister had her baby today...Joshua Logan, 8:41 am, 7 lbs 3 oz...born a month early...he wasn't due til Halloween...guess he was anxious to get here. She ended up having a c-section due to placenta previa and then had some trouble with bleeding afterwards but they were able to get that under control. He's having some issues with breathing and is in NICU but doing well. Congratulations Von and Richard!! You guys did good!
