We had a very interesting and fun Christmas holiday this year. I had great plans of taking more time off to spend with Eric and Amelia. I took the time off, but it wasn't quite used in the way I thought.....It began on 12/23/09.... the stomach bug. Amelia got it first. It was disgusting!!!! She was miserable the 23rd and 24th. Just miserable. I spent those 48 hours just holding her.
Then, it was Christmas morning and she felt a lot better. A Christmas miracle!!! We turned on the video camera and captured every minute. She loved going under the tree and retrieving all the gifts. She would take them to me or Eric and then assist in the opening! She helped open EVERY gift!! She was so happy.
But then,.... I noticed that Eric was moving slowly and had beads of sweat on his forehead. Yup, the bug had moved to him. He promptly went to bed and we didn't see him until Sunday.
Amelia was much better so we pal'd around. We even visited Aunt Christa and her girls on Christmas Day. Unfortunately, this was the calm before the next storm.
Turns out, when babies have .... tummy issues.... they lose their enzymes in the tummy and it takes awhile to rebuild them. So, if you let them have too much dairy products too soon... well, you end up with a call from the daycare saying your baby is having.... tummy issues. That was Monday. She was sick again until Wednesday. Eric, on the other hand, rebounded.
Enjoy some photos from our holiday!
