Spency's 2nd Birthday....of sorts

Tomorrow is Precious Pency's 2nd birthday and we've so been looking forward to meeting up with the cuzzies for his party at Inflatable World/McDonalds today. The girls live for parties (actually I do to!!!), so it was so so so disappointing that we couldn't go :(

On Thursday I got home from work to see Ella on the couch looking sickie and lifeless. She grizzled through about half an hour and then by 5pm she'd thrown up 3 times. First indication the party plans were in jeopardy for us.

We got her bathed and snuggled away in bed and that was the end of the bug for her. A day off Kindy yesterday and she's right as rain.

Faith went to school as usual yesterday and came home fine. Last night she said she felt a bit funny and I told her the best place to be when you feel sick is in bed. With that she rolled over and fell asleep. About 3 hours later just as I was about to climb into bed (typical!) I heard her whimpering in her room. Turns out she'd done a massive power chuck in her bed. In her disorientated state she'd pushed the sicky covers off her bed onto the carpet and onto a pile of books that were on the ground by her bed!!!! Thankfully Daddy Joe is brilliant at cleaning detail around here so he got to work pronto. I put my big baby in the shower and then snuggled up in bed with her. 1 more vomit for her and it was all over, an uneventful sleep and happy girl this morning. With paranoia over getting other children sick, we reluctantly sent our apologies for Pency's party and spent the day in Ranui Confinement :(

So sad!!!

 Today I went to get the girls McDonalds to celebrate Pency's party by distance.

Seth did get some by the way, looks like he was begging for scraps beside the table!

Ella did a good stint of folding washing this afternoon and she wanted a photo for it. She's wearing Uncle Matt's clothes like she often does which I love

Seffy scored some donut for pudding after his homemade chippies and fish for dinner.

 And the evening was finished off with a trip to the A & E for Faith because she had a swollen neck. We had no idea why but it turns out the doctor thinks it might be an allergic reaction from eating something different. I can only put it down to kiwifruit, so once it's settled down I'll test it again and see what happens.

This is the girls in the car in the middle of singing pretty hard to 'Uncle Pete's song' (Bastille - Pompeii) Love it!!!

We even made the trip 30kms away just to go to the A & E!!! The one on Lincoln Road was packed with about 15 people waiting. Pretty drastic to drive to the shore, but so worth it. No one else there, in and out in 25 minutes.

 Pency's real birthday is here. Much better than the one we had for him but we did our best.
Now we've just gotta be all good and healthy for Bubba Jordy's 4th Birthday next Saturday in Hamilton, which is actually our 6th wedding anniversary. Must not forget that too!
