A Weekend of Recovery

Well, it was an interesting weekend. Here's the day-by-day play-by-play ...

Aunt Barb came up for the weekend to help and Megan had a good time hanging out with her all day Thursday. Mommy, Daddy and Lucas were fortunate enough to get home early enough Thursday to see Megan for a little bit before she went to bed.

Megan managed to catch the same bug Daddy had on Wednesday ... so when Mommy checked on Megan Friday morning, she notice that the little one had apparently gotten sick overnight. Megan got sick a few more times that day and wasn't quite herself all weekend. She did, however, manage to work on her crawling skills and got up on all fours!

Lucas acted mostly normal on Friday, but he apparently overdid the jello at the hospital and hasn't eaten a bite since we got home (too bad we made two huge batches for him). He must have overdone the popsicles, too, because he's only eaten one of those since Thursday. He did start Friday off with one of his favorites ... oatmeal (aka oat-e-moat), so that probably helped him.


Lucas got a little more irritable on Saturday ... he didn't want to take his medicine any more (forcing medicine on a 2-year-old is not fun!), but changed his mind after a couple of forced attempts. The winning method was to put the medicine in a measuring cup, then give it to him via a dropper. It was different, so I guess that made it more "fun".


Apparently Daddy/Megan's bug has a 2-day incubation period, because Aunt Barb got it Sunday morning ... and didn't end up going home until Monday in the wee hours of the morning. Too bad we thanked her for all of her help by getting her sick. :(

Whew, I think that covers the major highlights (and lowlights). Thanks again to Aunt Barb for all of her help ... it was greatly appreciated!!!
