Happy Turkey Day!








I hope everyone had a happy Turkey Day. We spent our Turkey Day morning at the emergency room with Gabriel. Gabriel spent the entire night before screaming. He got a chest x-ray and an exam. The chest x-ray wasn't bad enough to diagnose pneumonia but he did have a bad ear infection. He is feeling a lot better now but Gabriel was just not up to seeing the family to celebrate Turkey Day so he stayed home with Daddy. Sylvia and Mommy went to dinner and brought Daddy home some goodies. Every little boy has some trips to the hospital. I thought Gabriel was quite successful in delaying his first trip. I will always remember this milestone as happening on Turkey Day morning. I am thankful it was a nice ER and it was not very crowded. Sylvia and I had a great time with the fam. Sylvia loved crawling around without having to worry about anyone pushing her or jumping on her. It was a nice experience for Mommy too.

The kids are still sick. I thought we might have to make another appearance at the ER today with Sylvia. She's fussy but not very much and I think she is getting some more teeth. I'm not sure it's an ear infection yet. She's actually looking better and is almost back to her perky self.

We went to Chuck E. Cheese's with Nanny today. Sylvia liked it. She did her little shoulder dance in the high chair. Gabriel had a great time and actually ate some pizza. He needed a little pick me up because he has had such a tough week or so. He doesn't handle sickness well at all.

I don't know why kids look so cute in sunglasses but they always do.

I am glad Thanksgiving Day was still enjoyed by all. I'm sure Gabriel did not know what he was missing. He did look tired and pale. Resting was the best for him. Sylvia and the rest looks good and happy. Lola
