Every year, Philip goes on a hunting trip at the farm with a bunch of guys from work. This year, we went over a day early and got all settled in at the cabin. We had a great time with our two little girls! The next day, Philip headed over to the farm for the weekend for his hunting trip. The girls and I stayed the week at the new cabin.
Lia loved her big girl bunk beds and slept wonderfully in them. Ella did really well too. We set up her pack n play in the guest room, and she settled in well for the most part.
When Lia woke up on Thursday, she had a runny nose and I figured that she caught something at school on Wednesday. Well it turns out I was right. Sage and Colt both ended up sick too : ( Lia's cold kept getting worse all week, and we ended up at the doctor in Dadeville on Tuesday. Lia was such a good girl at the doctor's office, so I let her pick out a treat at Rite Aid while we waited on them to fill her ammoxicilin. She chose blue and green nail polish, and we did mani/pedis in her new room when we got home : )
During the trip, we got to visit with family and friends. The girls had so much fun getting loved on by Mimi, Grandaddy, Aunt Ginny, Aunt Rachel, Harrison, Aunt Elaine, Lauren, and of course Uncle Cliff!
It was a rough week with Lia so sick (and now it seems that Ella has it too.) Between Ella being awake so much (as babies tend to do) then Lia waking up all night with her cold (she ended up in bed with me a lot), no one got much sleep. I wouldn't have made it without all the help from my mom! Thanks Mimi - you are a lifesaver!!
Even with the lack of sleep, we had a great visit. We love the new cabin and can't wait to go back again soon!!
Even though she was so sick, we still managed to have tons of fun in the bath tub! I got her Vapor bath, which seemed to ease her cough and congestion, so I let her stay in the tub as long as she wanted every night - we even ate dinner in there a few times!
