What a Night

Well, this week has definitely been different.  Monday Gracie had a T Ball game but it was so cold and windy we decided to skip it.  Hayden had a Softball game last night but because she plays 3rd base she had to be there.  We literally almost froze.  It took an hour for my toes to turn back the normal color.  Hayden was so cold but she tried so hard to make good throws and big hits.  Her hands were purple and freezing but she still made good throws and did it smiling.  She didn't get as big of hits as she usually does but she said that is because her hands were so cold that when she hit the ball hard it would sting.  Hopefully, this really, really cold weather is gone. 

Gracie was supposed to have her Easter party today at Preschool.  Hayden was also supposed to have a dress rehearsal for her play and an Easter egg hunt today.  However, we didn't make it to any of that because they have the stomach bug.  Yes!  the awful, awful stomach bug.  It started with Gracie at 1:30am, then Hayden at 2:00am and then Mark at 5am.  We were up all night because Gracie still can't make it to the bathroom it makes for lots and lots of cleaning.  I have washed just about every sheet, comforter and blanket in the house.  I have mopped, scrubbed potties and sinks.  I have been spraying lysol on anything and every thing they touch.  Colton seems okay but he was a little bit sick last week, so hopefully he won't catch the vomiting part.   So far I am good and I hope that I stay that way.  I certainly don't have time to be sick!  Not at all how I planned on spending the day but am hoping that they are 100% better tonight and in the morning.  

We will have to see how the day goes to decide whether Hayden gets to perform in her play tomorrow.  I certainly don't want anyone else to have this crud.

Last Friday was Grandparent's Day at GWA.  Mimi and Pop were there to celebrate with Hayden.  Aunt Linda and Grandmama also came to celebrate.  I wasn't there but I hear it was lots of fun and they got a very, very special cook book.  I am so glad that my little girl has such wonderful, loving Grandparent's.  She loves you all and was so excited that you were there with her. 

Hayden also had a spend the night party at a friend's house Saturday night.  It was a wild party because she stayed up until 4am and was pretty tired when she got home. However, Mimi and Hayden had plans to go watch a play about Horton hears a Who with the same friend she spent the night with and her Grandparents and a few other girls in her class.  She was exhausted when she got home Sunday night.
