Crazy Sicky week!

I've had a big slab of wax for about 10 years and I had only used a little bit of it for making candles. I decided to bring it out again and try making candles again. They actually turned out really good!
Still struggling with Abby eating, but one thing that she will eat is Spaghetti! She loves it!

We've had the stomach flu hit our house! Jacob started throwing up late Tuesday night/Early Wednesday morning and ended up staying home on Wednesday and Thursday. On Friday he returned to school and Abby woke up throwing up. She started throwing up around 7 a.m. and never stopped, so around 2 I called the dr and left a message and at 4 they called me back and said to take her to either a Pediatric Urgent Care or an E.R. because she was probably dehydrated. I took her to the Phoenix Childrens Urgent Care, which turned out to be amazing! I've never been to a Pediatric Urgent Care, and they were so fast at getting us back and getting started. They gave her some Zofran, which she gulped down, she was incredibly thirsty, then 20 minutes later they gave her a popsicle, 20 minutes after that they had her drink apple juice mixed with pedialyte and she gulped that down. Forty minutes later they let us go because she had kept it all down! Phew! She was a much happier camper after that, although Saturday she woke up with a fever and she still has it today. This is a rough sickness! Saturday afternoon after playing outside all day Ashlyn says that her tummy hurts and 20 minutes later starts throwing up. :(

Poor Abby, just wanted to rest all day on Friday because she was constantly throwing up...
She would get restless and start walking around and then she would get exhausted and just lay down wherever she was...broke my heart.
When she will lay down and not get back up, you know she's sick...
This is after her popsicle at the Urgent Care, she was starting to smile again...
This was Saturday, with her fever...

Since Rick and I were so worried about getting sick, we decided to celebrate his birthday a day early and I made him a Boston Cream Cake. It was delicious!





Luckily, both Rick and I woke up feeling good. We are holding out hope that we won't get sick! Haley is feverish today, but hasn't thrown up yet, fingers crossed she won't! Happy Birthday to Rick! Haha, we will have to do a re-do for sure!!
