Well.. I did it again. It took me almost 3 months to update this time. We have been really busy in the last 3 months though.
We did a weeklong trip to Abilene for Darrell’s work Christmas party in the first half of December. He was excited because he won an Xbox One at the party and he doesn’t usually win anything. I was excited because I was able to go and see everyone and introduce them to Edward. Which, he handled the whole traveling thing really well. No issues on the flights. He was either sleeping, looking out the window, or charming our neighboring passengers.
Then we came home for a little over a week and then flew down to San Diego for the Holidays to spend time with Sharyn’s family and some of Darrell’s family. We were there for 2 weeks and time just flew by. I did end up getting sick on New Years, but it was a quick 24 hour bug that laid me flat. I was fine the next day though. We wish we were able to see more family, but we took it easy this time and it was one of the first trips we have taken that was more like a relaxing vacation than anything else.
We made it home late on a Tuesday and Thursday was Edward’s Flu booster appointment, Friday was the FTC qualifying match, and Saturday was the Regional match for FTC. Unfortunately, Edward woke up sick on Saturday. I stayed home while Darrell went and his team actually made it to state (which is this Sunday 1/26). By Monday, I caught what Edward had, Wednesday: Darrell caught it, Thursday: Edward was better, Saturday: Darrell was better. I finally got over it two days ago. We are giving it a little bit of time before Edward and I head out and do things. It was just a cold (runny nose, sore throat, etc). We were just glad that there wasn’t a fever. So Edward handled his first cold like a boss. Hardly any fussing, just a cough and runny nose.
I am going to try to keep up with the updates, but we have a lot planned in the next two months: 1/31-2/2: Darrell’s friend in town, 2/7: Darrell’s Birthday and MAS concert, 2/7-2/10: Lorna visits, 2/18-3/1: East Coast trip (DC, New York, Connecticut). No idea yet on plans for March, but I know there will be something with the way we are going. 🙂
Now that I am caught up, I am going to sign off and hopefully I will be back before April. 🙂
