Occupational Therapy

Lucy was pretty cute in her OT session today, but you be the judge....

Look who is FINALLY feeling better!

Fun in the Park

We had some visitors this weekend. Lisa, Jack & Elise came up for a visit and we took them to Zilker park for some fun. It was a great day: cool playground, picnic, train ride, and the Nature park. We wore the kids OUT, and oh yeah, us too!
Here are some pictures that prove stepping stones are guaranteed to add some fun to your day!

THIS IS THE FACE OF AN OLD MAID CHEATER

I mean it! He is a blatant cheater. I was trying to pick one of his cards, and he tried to maneuver the Old Maid into my hand!! The audacity. Seriously folks guard your cards, wallet, and candy around this guy.

Aaahh Valentine's Day

So everyone seems to be on the mend, all that is except Lucy. She seesaws between doing good and then puking. This has been a horrible disease...I am not kidding. So here is to a weekend that is puke free. Pretty romantic, huh?

Plague, Day 6

HQ,

Outlook: GRIM

I am not sure that we will last much longer. Yesterday was a promising day, no barfing to report. However, this morning the one they call "Rhys" was sent home from school, and promptly started barfing. The child was taken to their trusted physician, and the cause was declared a "severe bug". Ha. The Doctor has no idea of the magnitude of the illness that we are dealing with. Upon the return home, the school nurse called and declared the eldest male child sick as well. The infant is also showing signs of regression. This afternoon she covered the matriarch in vomit. At least the father has made it out safe.
I fear for our survival. There seems to be no way out of this dark tunnel of sickness. Oh the humanity! Pray for us.

Plague, Day 5

HQ,

The "illness" infiltrated the Forbes' household on Wednesday night. The male child, Rhys, and the female infant both started vomiting. As a result the parental figures were up and changing sheets several times during the night. By all accounts, the infant female recovered from the vomiting the next day, but was put on a strict regimen of Pedilyte for 2 days. Unfortunately, the one they call "Rhys" continued barfing for 3 days. The father figure of the household was attacked by the illness on Friday.
The eldest male child and the mother fight for survival amid the compromised family members. It has been a perilous fight, sometimes coming into direct contact with said vomit. Thankfully it seems that the illness is abating, and that the house is almost clear of contagion. I will be happy to leave this place and breath fresh air again.

Jail Break

Time to lower the mattress!
