Better now!

Well, the Kelsey household is back to well baby status! Yea! Levi did end up getting sick, but didn't have the blisters in his mouth and throat like Addi. Now we are all getting excited about the upcoming (any day now) arrival of cousin Hannah!
I'm going to try to upload a video I took while we were stuck at home last week!

Still sick

Well, Addi is still quite sick. She has coxsackie virus with herpangina (I think I got that right). In layman's terms she has a bunch of blisters in her mouth and throat. She is not sleeping well and hollered a lot throughout the night last night. I hope she gets better soon. We are also hoping that baby Hannah doesn't decide to come until we all get better so we can all go see her at the hospital! I'm sure Katie is hoping otherwise, but I guess we'll just see how it goes. I remember that when cousin Jasmine was born Josh and Daniel had the chicken pox and didn't get to see her in the hospital.
On a funnier note, Addi got into one of her philosophical discussions about heaven before we went to bed last night. Addi said, "When we get to heaven will we take our milk with us?" I explained that in heaven we would have everything we need. She said, "God probably has LOTS of milk then." After thinking a minute or so she said, "And he probably has a microwave!" (Most of you know that at age 3, Addi decided she likes her milk warmed up- in the microwave- before she drinks it!)
Well, remember us in your prayers that Addi will get better soon and Levi will be spared this horrible virus.

This time it was aisle 7............

One of the greatest joys of motherhood has to be the dreaded stomach virus. Just kidding of course. Addi has been battling some kind of bug the past couple of days. Temperature got up to 104.1 at one point yesterday. But back to the title of this post. Addi and I went to Target yesterday afternoon and that's when this lovely virus hit....when she vomited on aisle 7. Embarrassed once again, I found an employee and told them what had happened. Meanwhile, Addi was crying and hollering, "Please don't let anybody step in it!" She has been quite pitiful. I guess I say, "Bless your heart" a lot when she is sick because at one point last night she said, "Mommy, will you please bless my heart."
She seems to be feeling some better today although she was quite upset about missing church. When I explained to her that she couldn't go because she might get someone else sick, she said, "But why can't I get everyone else sick? They will miss me."
Hopefully she will continue to feel better. We have soccer "tryouts" (they just see the kids to pick teams) on Tuesday evening. I'll try to take some pictures to post later.
