To A New Week

This last week was a pretty crazy one in our household. It's never a good sign when your baby is throwing up on a Monday, because then it snowballs into a week long sick fest. At least that is how we have found it to be in our family.

So yea, last Monday Hayden went to bed at her normal time and all was well, until I went in to check on her a little bit later to find she had thrown up in her bed and was curled up on the other side of her crib trying to sleep. Poor thing. So she had a rough few hours after that trying to feel better and keep her bottle down, but she finally fell asleep, watching her daddy save the world on his xbox. My poor little girl, but luckily she is feeling better and she is a happy baby again.

So the next couple of days went normal but then BOOM, Carl wakes up in the wee hours of Thursday morning sick sick sick! After 8 hours of running back and forth to the bathroom and having bad stomach cramps, we decided to go to the doctor. This was a little rough for us because as you know, doctors usually want to draw your blood when you are sick and Carl doesn't handle that too well. But he made it, after a little hyperventilating, but we still got through the blood test only to find his white blood cell count high, so off we go to get a CT to make sure it's not appendicitis. After the CT, we find out the appendix is fine, but his gall bladder seems to be the problem and we needed to go to the ER to get it out. After a few hours in the ER, an ultrasound and another hyperventilating blood test, we are sent home. The ER doctor didn't feel like she had enough proof to take the gall bladder out, so Carl is scheduled for one more test to make sure his gall bladder is functioning properly. If it isn't working, then it's out of here, if it is.....well, I guess we'll see what happens next. My poor hubby. I just want him to feel better. At the moment he is doing fine, but he is still kind of blah. Poor thing. We we supposed to be flying to Seattle Thursday night to hang out with my parents and Carl had an interview with a company up in Tacoma Friday morning, but sadly we missed the flight. Luckily there will be plenty of opportunities to go up there and hopefully more chances to interview. I just want a healthy hubby. Get better, Carl!

Two down, one more to go. I was waiting and waiting for my turn to come with the sickness, but luckily, it still hasn't hit me yet, knock on wood.

Some good did come out of this sad week. We were able to get our Christmas stuff out and up. I love it.Hayden was plain exhausted after decorating the tree. She passed out right in front of it!
This is our Christmas village. Carl's family always did one growing up, and I think it is really fun and cute.
HOHOHO, Merry Christmas! It's Santa's little helper.
Special Delivery!
It actually snowed today and Hayden had such a good time watching the snow fall from the window. What a sweetie!

May this week be healthier than last! Cheers!
