Rough week, but we're better now!

Last Saturday we went to a Lake Norman Mommies (the mom's network that I belong to and have met so many of my friends through) party. It was a celebration of their 4 years in this area. There was lots of good food and Drew's favorite part was the hula hoops, bubbles and music. Here he is trying to catch bubbles (he's in the jeans and red polo shirt).

Unfortunately, on Sunday Drew didn't feel the best. He had an upset tummy and a slight fever. This continued through Monday too. Monday night I woke up around 3am with the horrible stomach bug! That was not fun, especially being this far along pregnant! Tuesday was a rough day b/c I was sick, couldn't eat, and I had a sick toddler to care for! Definitely the most challenging mommy day that I've had. Although, Drew was wonderful - he wanted to lay on the couch with me all day! He even napped on the couch with me! He'd hug me and rub my face and say, "Mommy's belly hurts" and "feel better, Mommy." Tuesday through Friday, Drew's belly was better, but he ran a fever between 102 and 103.6! I felt much better on Wednesday, so I was able to care for him better. I took the entire week off from work, and we barely left the house! By the end of the week, we got some really nice weather, so at least we were able to open the windows to air out the house, and we even went out to play a little. Here he is blowing bubbles.

Here's his half smile.

Riding his motorcycle.
Playing ball and saying "cheese!"

Peeking! :)

And here's Emma at 35 weeks! Just 4 more weeks until her arrival, and I can hardly wait! I think I'm mentally prepared for this...just need to get our last projects done around the house until I feel completely ready!

Luckily we are all healthy now and made it through our rough week last week! At least we were rewarded with an amazing 77 degree Saturday and got to play outside and grill out for dinner. Drew liked eating dinner outside and watching the sun go down. And Sunday he helped Chad with yardwork! It was a great weekend!
