Everything was great until the next night. Your daddy got sick in the middle of the night, and I didn't know about it until Monday morning. So we all headed to school and work, when EP e-mailed and asked if anyone else had been sick. She and Uncle Jay had been sick all night too! Well, this thing eventually hit everyone EXCEPT Kate and Jeremy - how does that happen!? You got it on Wednesday, but luckily we were anticipating you were going to get it since almost the whole group had gotten it, so the second you said you weren't feeling well, I armed you with a towel. Luckily you threw up BEFORE we got in the car to go to school - that would have been messy (I think Ellie did that, actually!!).
KK and Granddaddy came up to help us out while Jake was home with RSV, so we celebrated St. Patrick's day and you got to open some early Easter presents from them. Mommy was feeling crafty and made you green pancakes and green milk. I could have been a little craftier and done more, but you'll come to find your Emme got those crafting genes. Mommy just dabbles - Emme excels!!!
You got quite the haul for Easter. Did they confuse this with Christmas?! Emme had made you and Jake matching St. Patrick's Day shirts so of course we had to do the "brother in matching outfits" photo sessions! But you guys were pretty agreeable!
Here's a funny story (at least I thought it was funny - you probably didn't think so at the time). It was one morning before work, and I was getting ready. You and Jake were in our bedroom playing, and I was down the hall. All of a sudden I heard you yell, "Mommy, Jake pooped on me!" Of course, I go in there thinking, how in the world did Jake poop on you? So I ran in there, and there you were sitting with a big lump of poop in your hand (GROSS!). He had had a MAJOR blowout, and I think you were giving him a hug and just got a handful! It was everywhere!!! It was "gusty" as you call it (disgusting!) - but funny now!
One day after I picked you up from school, you were sitting in the front seat (because you love to sit anywhere except your car seat!) while I was putting Jake in the car. It was a hot day so I jad started the car and to turn the air conditioner on. Well you must have been playing with the buttons, because you turned the AC fan all the way up. You turned to look at me with this look of complete shock, and said, "Mommy, I turned on the wind!" I had to laugh - and just agree!!
That was our March. Nothing too exciting. We continued to try soccer. You actually played in a game ONE time, but practices have been a challenge to get you to participate and even hang around in one place. It's not looking good for future games!
I'll tell you all about Easter in the next post. Until then, Kiss Kiss from Mommy!
