It was good while it lasted. 9 months and 5 days without being sick. Both Jeramy and Natalie came down with a nasty 24-hour stomach flu on Thursday. It was a very rough day for all of us but luckily it didn't last as long as it could have. Natalie had a hard time keeping anything in and it just zapped her of any energy. Daddy was in even worse shape and even called in sick to work for the first time since I've known him. At least I was able to really test my new washing machine's fancy "sanitizing" function. I didn't get it as badly as they did but I did feel yucky on Friday. But everyone seems to be on the mend now...
We were in a hurry to get everyone feeling better because this weekend we were celebrating Grandma Sandy's 50th birthday. We rented a fabulous house in Sunriver (thanks Brian and Lisa!) and the whole fam damily was there. Boy, was she ever surprised!
We had a great mini-vacation with the whole gang. Natalie played a lot with her cousins Chloe, Jared, Saleena, Alex and baby Kendra. She gave kisses to everyone that paid attention to her (which was pretty much everyone). She even went swimming in the hot tub with Grandma, Saleena and Chloe. And she had fun playing with Grandma's balloons after the helium failed! These are the only pictures I snapped all weekend. The rest are on Grandma and Grandpa's camera.
One other (better) milestone this weekend. TEETH (yes, plural!) have finally emerged. Friday night when we were anxiously awaiting Grandma's arrival, Natalie put my finger in her mouth and bit down hard. I was shocked at the little hard bumps I felt. There are two tiny teeth poking out of her bottom gum. They are a little crooked (I see orthodontist bills in our future!), but they're the cutest little teeth I've ever seen. Once they fully come in we'll try and to get a picture of her new beautiful grin.
Have a nice week!
